Rice is actually great as an 8. He can carry the ball well, he’s decent at passing and can score too. He would need time to properly settle into the position but everything is there (in him) to find success.
Although it’s quite clear originally Mikel wanted Kai as LCM and Rice as CDM (forced Partey as RB) but it didn’t work out at all. At least he’s not foolishly stubborn and seems to have changed his approach.
