Ok so being best placed to discuss this here it is. He is 100% not a traitor, despite the notion above from Tompkins of ‘payback’ (complete nonsense mate) Rice did play 3 senior games for us so the expectation would have been he would play for ROI but his levels improved and England decided they wanted him, fair enough clearly a talented player and he is, of course, English.
The FAI did this as a bit of a joke and that’s certainly how it’s gone down over here. He’s referred to now as England’s Declan Rice.
Fundamentally his career will be greatly enhanced by playing for England than it will playing for Ireland. When he leaves west ham in a year or two his contract will be much better off the back of being an England international.
Seems like a nice lad and wish him all the best

Utter tosh.

Nonsense he's an English man playing for England. Also he will have a better career financially because of the decision.
It most probably was a commercial decision 💷
He made 20 odd appearances for Ireland and then jumped ship.. He was happy enough singing the national anthem and representing "my country" til England showed an interest. That's his decision and good luck to him. Wouldn't want to be in the same team as a rat like that though.
Meh it is what it is. Don't get why so many are riled up. We've had our best success off English and some Scottish born players representing us. When one of these decides to play for the country he was born in we can't complain.
The rules are the problem not England's Declan Rice
