the thing is because of rice skill set which is running with the ball forward, arteta seems to now fully use him as no 8 compared to few first few appearances where he played as no 6
He played him 8 in his first true competitive game. Then a 6 that becomes an 8. Then mainly a 6 and now more recently an 8 again.
I think he’s just a super talented midfielder that can do different things in different games.
