[0:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=3) Again? Yeah. Which ones? Rice. You see, if we want to talk about people, let's get into it, let's show some expertise. [0:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=10) Rice, for me, he's— Fifteenth. Yeah, way too low. [0:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=13) Is he in the top ten? He should be ahead of Bellingham already. Yeah. [0:17](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=17) He's, he's the English champion. Who do you take out of the top ten? [0:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=21) Wait, I'll tell you if I wrote him down. [0:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=23) Messi first, already. I love it when you go through his notes and everything. Messi first, man. [0:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=27) No, Messi, Messi, top ten, Messi. No, come on, cut the crap. Given his World Cup, guys. [0:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=31) Stop it. Come on, he played in Miami all season. [0:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=33) Okay, but we're talking about the World Cup. He had a World Cup, The World Cup was incredible, guys.\\Yeah, yeah, but wait. [0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=37) The World Cup lasted three weeks. He’s thirty- nine, he’s thirty- nine\\ years old. But who cares about age? [0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=40) But he played in a World Cup, he carried Argentina on his shoulders. [0:43](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=43) Fine, he’s won eight Ballon d’Ors. Oh, you’re gonna… Yeah, well, this is— And Declan Rice, what has he done\\ at Arsenal? Come on, tell me. [0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=48) All right, okay, all right, but Declan Rice— No, but when we’re talking about rankings,\\Declan Rice. [0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=51) Declan Rice, the World Cup\\was average. [0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=54) It was average. I think his\\season was very good, at least. [0:56](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=56) No, his season was incredible.\\And in, and in, and in this, in the somewhat... [1:00](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=60) With all due respect. He had a lot to do with Arsenal's success. [1:03](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=63) No, no, no, no, that's an easy one. Go on, tell me the matches where he was average. [1:06](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=66) He's the best midfielder in England. I don't see Bellingham. [1:08](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=68) Bellingham plays as a second striker, he's a number ten. [1:10](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=70) I'd put Bellingham ahead. But they're not the same kind of player. [1:14](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=74) Bellingham is, he's more decisive. The o-other one, he's too— Who are you taking out of the top ten? [1:18](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=78) What do you mean? I'm taking out your Messi, I'm taking out your Rodri because you, you don't have... [1:21](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=81) You're taking Rodri out? Rodri, yeah, who played... [1:23](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=83) But I don't know, that's two— we've been talking for two hours. [1:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=86) You're saying: “He only played for two months, blah blah blah.” [1:28](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=88) Now he's telling me, “Take Rodri out.” Yeah, yeah, go ahead. Well, I'll take Rodri out. [1:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/gSPb1MuvfRlA/en/declan-rice-ahead-of-messi-and-bellingham-top-10-debate?t=91) I'll take Messi out. Yeah, yeah. First of all, already...
