Gary has natural interviewing skills, this is the best footie show around by miles. Bare bones, real talk, no hype. Just great insight into what it's like, how it works, and how players deal with all of the behind the scenes things that us mere mortals are curious about. As a Chelsea fan I really hope we land Declan #KTBFFH
Not just saying this because I'm a Hammer but I think he's better off staying with us for another season. He's still improving. The prevailing wisdom at the club is that he can add goals and assists to his game but as it stands only United have a first team spot where he would immediately improve them. If he goes to Chelsea or City he would cost them something when replacing who they have. In a year, if he continues growing and adds those goals and assists, he walks into any side. Obviously I'd rather West Ham build a team around him but I fear that's unlikely until 2023 or later, when we are more likely to find new ownership.
@@georgeh2948 I don’t condone sucking toes whether it’s ur daughter or ur wife it’s weird af but don’t try act like Scholes wasn’t a top player because of that🤦🏾♂🤦🏾♂
Out of all the elite level footballers, I think the prima donna player is a very small minority. Most players are like Declan Rice They have a flash car, nice house etc because they can afford it but football is still there main focus, otherwise they wouldn’t be where they are.
What a great level headed bloke Declan Rice is. A credit to his club, England and himself. Excellent questions from Gary too. Ever thought of coming to Arsenal, Declan ? Shame for us you fit West Ham so well , maybe one day... In the meantime, very best wishes for your career.
That was a bloody enjoyable 45 minutes. A cheeky glimpse of inside our national side. Not one player should feel any shame about the Euro defeat,what a ride they gave us.The best in my lifetime.including Italia '90. Bring on Quatar.....extra blood pressure tablets on order.
Throwback character still get them in the lower leagues.but in the top flight there usually ruined by the money he hasn’t been so far which is wonderful
Rice is easily one of my favourite players. He’s so good on the pitch, one of the best midfielders in the league. Off the pitch he shows his personality and seems like such a nice person.
@@dickmonkey-king1271 bet you didn't exert the same faux outrage when suarez was biting people, Alonso killed someone and players drink driving. Have you been commenting on Man U fans comments about Greenwood raping people? Or just putting all of your focus on Zouma gently kicking a cat?
What a footballer he is, going to be difficult to keep hold of him sadly as a West Ham fan. Just a great guy as well. Was unbelievable in the final as well.
@@matthewharris2909 He played for Ireland 🇮🇪 singing Irish songs in a bar in Dublin and he was to shut up or get the fuck out with the politics and it was on bagot street In Dublin or he would have been sent home in an envolpe
I would love a version with Mount because with all these negative news with footballers recently, I just want to hear the actual nice guys in football be highlighted more and he and Declan always seem to be the guys bringing the positivity wherever they go 💙💙
Losing faith in footballers and their attitudes etc. Declan Rice gives me hope. We need more footballers like him. Great, humble bloke. Love this interview
Such a lovely young man what a great role model, for the young boys, all credit to his family, wishing you all the best, for the future.from a Leeds United, fan.
I grew up in the same area as Declan, albeit a few years older. I remember playing with him down at the rec at a few times in those hot Summer's evenings and being pretty mesmerized by his skill and guile for such a young age. He's grown into a top bloke!
These interviews are good at highlighting that some of our sportsmen/women have personalities and charisma. Declan stands out because he’s both and doesn’t hide it.
I'm a longtime Liverpool fan and I really enjoy the way Gary carries himself, the questions he asks, and the intelligent insight he brings. I would never had said this a couple years ago so fair play Gary. I will also say that Declan is one of the most intelligent and level headed footballers I have heard from, definite captain material.
Phenomenal interview by Gary Neville. One of the best football interviews I've ever seen... also help that Declan is confident in himself, good guy and obviously a future England captain. He'll follow in Bobby Moore's footsteps and lift the world cup and Michael Jordan Westham into Champs league domination.
What a wonderfully conducted interview. Kudos to Gary for keeping it so Candid and Declan is a top lad as always. He's the future of England , he'd fit well in just about any top club.
He is/will become a world star… future england captain and will be one of West Ham’s greatest players to wear the claret and blue ….. and so mature for 23….. just brilliant
I wasn't immediately a fan of Declan Rice until I seen some of his performances for England and watched the genuine, honest approach in his interviews you can't help be like the fella. A great inspiration for all at such a young age.
Rice is one of the few modern day footballers who actually knows how to use his limelight to his own and others advantage. Everyone loves him through his social media activity, the fact he gives back and the fact he seems so genuine. Fair play Declan.
I saw Declan rice at an Se dons cup final 3 years ago. I was making a documentary on se dons & asked Declan if he’d give me an interview & he answered all my questions with genuine interest. One of the nicest people I’ve met 🤝
Absolutely love Rice, class player, class person. I am just going to enjoy every minute he plays for West Ham. If he stayed with us he could be as much of a legend as Moore, Bonds and Brooking, he is that loved by the fans. ⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️
Well done Gary, this is a great new format to informally introduce players to your audience and capture them as they are. Declan is without a shadow of a doubt one of the finest talents in the country right now. I really do hope the new share holder is able to invest in the squad and work around building a strong team around the likes if Rice & Bowen to compete at the highest level.
Thoroughly enjoyable watch. What a decent, grounded lad. What a fantastic footballer. He plays well above his years. They've been saying that at West Ham for ages. Will be sad to see him leave, I think a lot of West Ham fans are resigned to it. But he's ambitious and you can't knock that. I'd never begrudge him want to achieve things in life and would wish him all the best and say thanks to him for giving 100% in the Claret and Blue. Who knows, if we can either secure a Champions League place (unlikely) or win the FA Cup or Europa League (possible) it might convince him to stay another season. Good luck Deccers whatever you do. COYI
Honestly didnt realise how mature, bright and down to earth this lad is... This should be the role model football should be pushing. Not a Hammers fan, but for sure a Declan Rice fan now!
Great role model someone who changed countries for money, if any of the English lads is to be looked at as a role model why not Bukayo Saka, Raheem Sterling, or really any of the young Chelsea lads who all seem very down to earth and articulate
@@dendle89 he was and if he chose England initially I’d have no problem obviously but the amount of time he wasted from Irish coaches and even fans in being excited for him that could’ve been spent on players who actually wanted to play for the country is what irritates me, he played for us 4 times I think, you can’t change your mind that late, it’s actually disgraceful tbh
What an absolutely brilliant example to young players. Just look at how down to earth he is. Not only is he a brilliant inspiration, he's a FUCKING good player. One of the best and for me, he is the FIRST on the team sheet for England. Tremendous player and built of the 'right stuff'. Took really hard knocks being released by Chelsea then now look at him. PURE CLASS.
Biggest thing I noticed in this, which don't think ive seen from any other footballer, every time he goes to answer a question he pauses and takes a breath. Just seems like he is composing and really thinking about the answer. This then allows him to get it across in a really good way. Brilliant episode, my favourite by far I think!
This is the type of correct mentality that majorities of young players lack. Hope Declan will achieve everything that he can win in football. Hopefully its with Chelsea. He will be a great addition to the squad for years to come.
What a chilled, relaxed and confident lad Declan comes across as. You can't get mad at him and he's proper likeable. He articulates incredibly well and thats testament to his family, education and life lessons/experiences. Brilliant interview. 👏👏 Unpopular opinion: Would absolutely love him at Utd, he's the type of player, personality we need, but at the same time with the way we are, play and continue to be, I wouldnt want him at us only because we have a very bad habit of ruining young, top quality talents and it'd be an absolute shame to see him decline.
Spot on with what you have said, United need him badly but does he need United, would he better off going back to Chelsea and playing with mount and back to club that rejected him, I think that's what will happen but soooo want him at United. Best English holding midfielder iv ever seen and I am including Carrick who I liked to watch as well.
Great great interview. Declan can and will be a role model to a new generation of footballers looking for inspiration in a time of so much controversy. Gary showing his skills to lead a casual chat is also nice to see. As a west ham fan its painful to see how obvious it is he's gonna leave, but I think it's also obvious he'll always hold us in his heart. I'll keep on hating some of the prems big names, like Chelsea Liverpool and United, but, no matter where he goes, I'll always be a fan of him. Go win it all, Declan ⚒️
Arsenal are delaying the announcement of this guy 😢... I'm just watching any of his videos I get my hands on.... Hopefully they announce it spectacularly (due to the price tag too and statement of intent from the club 💯). I can't wait to watch him soon ✨... Welcome in advance Deccers 😊😤✨💫. Come on you Gooners ♥️😊💯🔴⚪
Now there’s someone for kids to look up to. Declan is such a decent guy, speaks so well and is a normal bloke. Great episode this, I thought Carra was good, Lampard was better but Rice has topped them both! Who’s next Gary? 👏🏼👏🏼
This didn't disappoint. Insightful interview and good to hear Dec speak so openly and sweetly. He's a good man and an extremely talented man. He's en route to being one of England's finest in history of football and so very deserved. He's also funny, intelligent, grounded and has good foundation with fam and friends, so important.❤ Wish he was my friend haha
I've never really listened to Declan before, but Gary at 18:30 is so spot on. What an honorable and switched-on kid, looking to legit support and believe in his family by making an agency from them, knowing they understand his true wealth. Now the speculation is what it is, but a head like this may just settle a disgruntled Man UTD locker room and put some egos in check
You can literally interview anyone, what a position to be in, what about an ex team mate and have some stories and laughter about your time as a footballer, we don't hear enough about the stories you all must have! Love the concept and the videos, we'll done Gary 😀
Shows the importance of upbringing and how to nurture your child. Hope I can do the same with my kids, whatever direction they want to go in. Top class person is Declan.
Top player and by all accounts a really good and humble guy off the pitch. You can only wish a young man like this nothing but the very best for his career.
These interviews are absolutely top drawer, by far and away the best real football content out there. Declan Rice is class, what a great lad. Massively enjoyed this.
We love Declan Rice ⚒ Will be heartbroken if he leaves us but at the same time I’ll still have that respect for him! He is unreal such a top geeza and the passion he shows us on and off the pitch is priceless. Best English footballer out there IMO. That being said.the man United fans that think they have a chance of getting him are off their rocker 🤣
@ Anthony - sorry but Tottenham is more relevant than Millwall and we hate them an all. Jog on pal we will see you in the cup draw in about 10 years time
As a lifelong West Ham fan I really hope that this young man goes and captains not just our club but also the country. A real credit to his family, club and country.
@@pauloneill914 yer can hear it in his accent 🤔🙄 plus of course being born and raised in Ireland..... and by Ireland I mean Kingston upon Thames to parents also born and raised in Kingston upon Thames!!!! The lad is English, end of, get over it. Maybe if Ireland developed their own talent rather than trying to steal young English players that haven't fully realised their potential yet and stopped pushing them as young kids to make a decision on their international career before they're even old enough to sign a pro deal then this sort of thing wouldn't happen!!! But yes.... he's Irish.... if that helps you sleep at night 🤣😂
@@pauloneill914 "forza italia"?? seems you don't either 😂 is it Irish or Italian? Must be a common thing by the looks of it, Irish changing nationality as soon as they can haha.
Love this series cus its not the same generic answers, but every guests lets their guard down and just gives honest answers, especially the bit about Rice not liking digs then growing older he misses it. A life lesson right there to savour the present
Love this series Gary keep it up . So natural and relaxed feel like we get to know more about the person underneath the shirt and how hard they work to get where they are . Top man Declan rice aswell can’t beat a humble top player
Top guy. Sold him some Air Max on The Basement group on Facebook before he made his debut at West Ham. Quick payment, good buyer. Those who know, know.
What a fella , love the part about getting that first tackle in , that's what us English are all about . Football has moved on but the core values will always be needed . Going to be an England legend this kid that's for sure
Top top player love this guy as a payer and as a geezer , just seems soooo normal & always got banter . Best all round midfielder since Gerrard and Best defensive English midfielder since Paul Ince . Absolute warrior and fighter on the pitch . 💪
Brilliant Interview. Gary isn't one of my favourite pundits but that was very real, natural and genuine and it only shows more of what we as west ham fans already know, he is destined to be a superstar and hopefully a future England captain. Not just grounded and unfazed by the media but he is so open and honest and genuine. He doesn't seem fussed about money, he just loves playing. Wherever he goes he will be getting that silver.....just not at Tottenham ....COYI ⚒⚒⚒❤😆😆😆😜
Great interview I hope the media does not pick out sentences or words out of it to start dramatizing everything and God forbid make this lad loose focus on his season like it did Kane
Certain footballers recently have made the front pages for very wrong reasons, so it's nice to watch this interview and listen to a very down to earth and likeable young man. The game needs more role models like him!
I've been a Spurs fan since 1968 and I obviously normally don't like to give anything or anyone associated with West Ham any credit, but i've got to say that as well as being a good young player, Declan is so much more mature than his 23 years suggest. So level headed. It's good to see 👍.
thought Declan Rice came across as a nice switched on young man with no airs and graces, lovely to see and also for him to acknowledge the input of his family. As for Gary I have never been a fan, but I do find my opinion changing as he seems to be (as he matures) reflecting on some old opinions / attitudes and certainly shows insights (as regards football is played today) that his old self never had. He comes across as an honest and genuine man, not all football do.
The rancid tiny group of Irish seem not to understand divided loyalties. I'm of similar provenance to Rice and while I understand the real sense of betrayal they feel. Its rancid quality is overdone; I know how Rice feels, I believe; they seem not to. As with my beloved Hammers, I fear he"ll leave us...life will go on though; he's a winner.
MNF in 12 years… Gary & Declan, who says no? Apart from Carragher 😂
Gary will be prime minister then
Carra will have been sacked for the spitting thing once cancel culture runs out of interesting people to attack

@@phildixon5769 mcfred

Rice is easily one of my favourite players. He’s so good on the pitch, one of the best midfielders in the league. Off the pitch he shows his personality and seems like such a nice person.
Interesting to see where he goes... Big clubs dont tend to like their sitting midfielders getting forward... His style kind of fits West Ham.

Spot on with what you have said, United need him badly but does he need United, would he better off going back to Chelsea and playing with mount and back to club that rejected him, I think that's what will happen but soooo want him at United. Best English holding midfielder iv ever seen and I am including Carrick who I liked to watch as well.
Great great interview. Declan can and will be a role model to a new generation of footballers looking for inspiration in a time of so much controversy. Gary showing his skills to lead a casual chat is also nice to see. As a west ham fan its painful to see how obvious it is he's gonna leave, but I think it's also obvious he'll always hold us in his heart. I'll keep on hating some of the prems big names, like Chelsea Liverpool and United, but, no matter where he goes, I'll always be a fan of him. Go win it all, Declan ⚒️
Arsenal are delaying the announcement of this guy 😢... I'm just watching any of his videos I get my hands on.... Hopefully they announce it spectacularly (due to the price tag too and statement of intent from the club 💯). I can't wait to watch him soon ✨... Welcome in advance Deccers 😊😤✨💫. Come on you Gooners ♥️😊💯🔴⚪
This aged well didn’t it. 🔥🍚
It's nice to hear his story. He seems like a great lad and I wish him all the best.
Now there’s someone for kids to look up to. Declan is such a decent guy, speaks so well and is a normal bloke.
Great episode this, I thought Carra was good, Lampard was better but Rice has topped them both!
Who’s next Gary? 👏🏼👏🏼
That’s because Lampard has the personality of a bar of soap
This didn't disappoint. Insightful interview and good to hear Dec speak so openly and sweetly. He's a good man and an extremely talented man. He's en route to being one of England's finest in history of football and so very deserved. He's also funny, intelligent, grounded and has good foundation with fam and friends, so important.❤ Wish he was my friend haha
I absolutely love Declan. He’s the man. United fan. Would respect him even if he played for the scousers.
I've never really listened to Declan before, but Gary at 18:30 is so spot on. What an honorable and switched-on kid, looking to legit support and believe in his family by making an agency from them, knowing they understand his true wealth. Now the speculation is what it is, but a head like this may just settle a disgruntled Man UTD locker room and put some egos in check
At his age, he's so well spoken 💙
You can literally interview anyone, what a position to be in, what about an ex team mate and have some stories and laughter about your time as a footballer, we don't hear enough about the stories you all must have! Love the concept and the videos, we'll done Gary 😀
I’m a Liverpool fan, but Declan Rice is pure class, very humble
Dreading the day this guy leaves the hammers 🔨 great players and good to have in the dressing room. Every team wants a Declan Rice!
as a Kiddy fan, this guy did his best to ruin our day and he did, but was a humble guy at the end. Good luck Declen in living your dream
Shows the importance of upbringing and how to nurture your child. Hope I can do the same with my kids, whatever direction they want to go in. Top class person is Declan.
Most people will find themselves smiling at some point whilst watching this, and that's ok. Well done G nev and the overlap. Please keep them coming
Top player and by all accounts a really good and humble guy off the pitch. You can only wish a young man like this nothing but the very best for his career.
Can’t believe he’s at my club now. COYG! 🔴
Why is Gary (in the thumbnail )looking like he just heard Decs reject a move to man united after tryna convince him for 1 hour straight 😂😂
😂😂😂😂
These interviews are absolutely top drawer, by far and away the best real football content out there. Declan Rice is class, what a great lad. Massively enjoyed this.
We love Declan Rice ⚒
Will be heartbroken if he leaves us but at the same time I’ll still have that respect for him! He is unreal such a top geeza and the passion he shows us on and off the pitch is priceless. Best English footballer out there IMO. That being said.the man United fans that think they have a chance of getting him are off their rocker 🤣
@ Anthony - sorry but Tottenham is more relevant than Millwall and we hate them an all. Jog on pal we will see you in the cup draw in about 10 years time
@ Anthony - how’s Millwall doing? Enjoying Europe are ya? 😂 nah instead you go to craven cottage 🤣
@Anthony Do you go to games hoping to lose quite regularly, to avoid the risk of promotion?
@Anthony youd never have tourists 😂😂😂
He won’t ever go manure mate, especially not after the whole lingard situation
He’s going to Chelsea 100% :(
Next summer though I think
Great interview as always. Declan’s personality is top class. When he’s says big dogs 😂😂😂😂
the overlap is hands down the best channel on youtube
Gary love your spirit n energy, you put people at easy ask the right questions and keep it fun and informative 🌟👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍🏾🙏🏾😉
This is about to get a lot of views
He genuinely loves the game, plays with a smile on his face, not motivated by dough…what a role model…love him
Brilliant!
Top man Declan!
Proud that you’re our captain
Hope we can fill your trophy cabinet to bursting!!
As a lifelong West Ham fan I really hope that this young man goes and captains not just our club but also the country. A real credit to his family, club and country.
He’s never going to stay with West Ham
@@Jedi1990 He's not staying any longer but he captained West Ham to a European trophy. Absolute baller!
He’ll become one of the best English captains of all time
does euro finalist, and qatar world cup winner not make him the best😂
Funny thing is he’s Irish lol and has went to England to win things with them. Laughable… England aren’t good enough to win anything
@@pauloneill914 yer can hear it in his accent 🤔🙄 plus of course being born and raised in Ireland..... and by Ireland I mean Kingston upon Thames to parents also born and raised in Kingston upon Thames!!!! The lad is English, end of, get over it. Maybe if Ireland developed their own talent rather than trying to steal young English players that haven't fully realised their potential yet and stopped pushing them as young kids to make a decision on their international career before they're even old enough to sign a pro deal then this sort of thing wouldn't happen!!! But yes.... he's Irish.... if that helps you sleep at night 🤣😂
@@JakeT89 you are a scream lol the lad is that daft he doesn’t know what nationality he is Forza Italia
@@pauloneill914 "forza italia"?? seems you don't either 😂 is it Irish or Italian? Must be a common thing by the looks of it, Irish changing nationality as soon as they can haha.
Love this series cus its not the same generic answers, but every guests lets their guard down and just gives honest answers, especially the bit about Rice not liking digs then growing older he misses it. A life lesson right there to savour the present
Love this series Gary keep it up . So natural and relaxed feel like we get to know more about the person underneath the shirt and how hard they work to get where they are . Top man Declan rice aswell can’t beat a humble top player
Top guy. Sold him some Air Max on The Basement group on Facebook before he made his debut at West Ham. Quick payment, good buyer. Those who know, know.
What a fella , love the part about getting that first tackle in , that's what us English are all about . Football has moved on but the core values will always be needed . Going to be an England legend this kid that's for sure
Top top player love this guy as a payer and as a geezer , just seems soooo normal & always got banter .
Best all round midfielder since Gerrard and Best defensive English midfielder since Paul Ince .
Absolute warrior and fighter on the pitch . 💪
Deccers, what a brilliant man and role model he is, absolutely for sure future England captain
Definitely
Love watching these. Could also just listen to Declan for hours. Top guy, top footballer.
He is a gunner now makes this tape bring many more views
Brilliant Interview. Gary isn't one of my favourite pundits but that was very real, natural and genuine and it only shows more of what we as west ham fans already know, he is destined to be a superstar and hopefully a future England captain. Not just grounded and unfazed by the media but he is so open and honest and genuine. He doesn't seem fussed about money, he just loves playing. Wherever he goes he will be getting that silver.....just not at Tottenham ....COYI
⚒⚒⚒❤😆😆😆😜
Great interview
I hope the media does not pick out sentences or words out of it to start dramatizing everything and God forbid make this lad loose focus on his season like it did Kane
Certain footballers recently have made the front pages for very wrong reasons, so it's nice to watch this interview and listen to a very down to earth and likeable young man. The game needs more role models like him!
Feel like Gary is one of them uncles you can’t wait to see during a family event!
I've been a Spurs fan since 1968 and I obviously normally don't like to give anything or anyone associated with West Ham any credit, but i've got to say that as well as being a good young player, Declan is so much more mature than his 23 years suggest. So level headed. It's good to see 👍.
What a player, what a Barnet
Finally someone sees it great player terrible hair cuts
@@chrisferns5352 Nothing wrong with his Barnet though
Syrup
thought Declan Rice came across as a nice switched on young man with no airs and graces, lovely to see and also for him to acknowledge the input of his family. As for Gary I have never been a fan, but I do find my opinion changing as he seems to be (as he matures) reflecting on some old opinions / attitudes and certainly shows insights (as regards football is played today) that his old self never had. He comes across as an honest and genuine man, not all football do.
what a great honest interview from Rice, love how down to earth he is, unlike a lot of modern day footballers
Imagine not liking Dec, what a man and a player. So proud he represents my club⚒️❤️
and country as well, we'll bring it home mate.
The rancid tiny group of Irish seem not to understand divided loyalties. I'm of similar provenance to Rice and while I understand the real sense of betrayal they feel. Its rancid quality is overdone; I know how Rice feels, I believe; they seem not to.
As with my beloved Hammers, I fear he"ll leave us...life will go on though; he's a winner.
