Declan Rice has his heart set on emulating Bobby Moore and Billy Bonds.
The teenager has started both Caraboa Cup matches this season and is now eyeing a run all the way to Wembley on Final day.
He may have to be part of a successful team at the famous stadium before that by perhaps being involved in overcoming Spurs on October 23.
Commenting on the Cup competition the teenager said: ” “There is so much history in the cups with West Ham, the FA Cup and League Cup, so we want to go on a good run and get to Wembley again,”
“I saw a really good video with Bobby Moore and Billy Bonds and I’d love to experience the same feelings they did by winning a trophy.
“If you want to be a top player, you have got to win trophies and I want to emulate them.”
I hope he gets to see it thru against Spurs and hopefully beyond. love to see him get a goal from a set piece. But the kid just has such a hgreat attitude and is smart good to see our Academy producing and know Bilic using this talent.
Hope more follow him up and hope Ox gets some time or send him home, he is supposedly getting frustrated at lack of time being none
