Stuart Pearce outlines his biggest Declan Rice frustration after England's win over Wales

Former West Ham United player and coach Stuart Pearce feels that Declan Rice has more to offer after his performance during England's 3-0 win over Wales in the World Cup on Tuesday night.

The West Ham captain started for the third straight game but was taken off just before the hour mark when the Three Lions were 2-0 up, with a few key players getting a brief rest ahead of Sunday's round of 16 clash against Senegal.

In the game, Rice made 44 of his 46 attempted passes but speaking out on the game, Pearce, who played 50 times for the Hammers and worked as David Moyes' assistant manager, feels that Rice was too negative at times and needs to make the most of his passing ability.
