but if Frank lands his own British version, it will probably spend a cute penny.<\/p>\n<p>However, a bargain deal with Rabiot allows the club to land their version of rice, and the Frenchman has a variety of similar qualities as the former West Ham United star.<\/p>\n<p>The Marseille star was labelled by Fbref as a similar player to Gunners Star based on numbers from last season, and managed to outperform him in many key areas in the process.<\/p>\n<p>    Labeled &#8220;World Class&#8221; by former French star David Trezeguett, Rabiot posted more goals and assists, and replicating such numbers provided Lily White with additional goals scored threats.<\/p>\n<div class=\"table-container\">\n<table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"1\" cellspacing=\"1\" style=\"\" align=\"\" summary=\"\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"3\" scope=\"col\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>How did Rabiot and Rice compare throughout 2024\/25?<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Statistics (per 90)<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Rabiot<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Rice<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>The game has been played<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>29<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>35<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Goals and Assistance<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>13<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>11<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Accuracy<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>85%<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>83%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Move to the last third<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>5.3<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>4.3<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Progressive Pass<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>6.2<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>6.1<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>The tackle won<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>1.2<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>0.8<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Intercept has been performed<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>0.9<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>0.8<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Tackle percentage won<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>59%<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>41%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Take-on success<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>52%<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>48%<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>The air won<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p><strong>1.2<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>1.1<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th colspan=\"3\" style=\"text-align:center\">\n<p>Statistics via FBREF<\/p>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table><\/div>\n<p>He also managed to find other teammates, notching a higher pass completion rate, with much of the effort per 90 going into the final third, with something like Kudus adding opportunities before the goal.<\/p>\n<p>Without the ball, Rabiot would have been equally dominant, achieving a higher tackle success rate, but also increased interceptions around 90.<\/p>\n<p>Given the statistics created by the 30-year-old in the 2024\/25 campaign, the rumored \u00a315 million transfer fee would be an absolute bargain.<\/p>\n<p>If he can replicate such a level on the UK top flight, the Frenchman is a great signature and can hand his answer to Rice to his manager &#8211;
