Tottenham has a better signing than Arsenal this season as per expert

Arsenal Team

Determining the signing of the summer is a subjective matter. Hence, each fan from every club could provide a distinct response. Arsenal might think it is Declan Rice. Chelsea supporters might argue that Moises Caicedo holds that title. While Liverpool fans might point to Alexis Mac Allister as their top choice. On the other hand, Newcastle fans could nominate Sandro Tonali as their standout signing of the summer.

The title of “signing of the summer” has multiple contenders, and two particularly notable additions have emerged at Tottenham and Arsenal. Both James Maddison and Declan Rice stand out as some of the most captivating signings of the summer to date. Gabriel Agbonlahor, sharing his thoughts on TalkSPORT, has gone as far as asserting that Maddison is the superior signing between the two.

In a task to select his top five signings of the current transfer window, Agbonlahor included Maddison in his list. However, intriguingly, he omitted Arsenal player Rice from the lineup of his chosen top five signings.

Why does Agbonlahor think Arsenal signing inferior to that of Tottenham?

Agbonlahor said:

“Number four, James Maddison, he is the player Spurs have been missing. I watched him for years. I watched him against Brentford. He just wants the ball, he’s addicted to the ball. That’s what you need, a number 10 who wants the ball all the time, wants to make things happen, he has a set-piece in him, has a goal in him, he has a great touch, that’s the player Spurs have been crying out for since they lost Eriksen.”

After just one game this season, it appears that Maddison might potentially have a greater impact as a signing compared to Rice of Arsenal. However, it’s crucial to bear in mind that this judgment is based on a solitary game, and the broader impact of these signings will likely become clearer as the season unfolds.

Rice’s true caliber is likely to be in plain vision in significant matches. Where he’ll need to dig deep and deliver defensive excellence. These are the encounters where he’ll be called upon to display his defensive prowess. As opposed to matches against opponents like Nottingham Forest where the defensive demands might not be as intense.
