Carabao Cup: West Ham hammer Arsenal on Declan Rice’s return to reach quarter-finals
West Ham welcomed Declan Rice back to the London Stadium and then promptly sent him and Arsenal packing on the end of a 3-1 Carabao Cup defeat.
Rice, who lifted the Europa Conference League trophy as Hammers captain last season, was back at his old club for the first time since his £105 million switch to the Gunners.
But he will not be getting his hands on the Carabao Cup this season after strikes from Mohammed Kudus and Jarrod Bowen, following an early own goal by Ben White, sent the north Londoners crashing out.
Take a bow the two of you
