West Ham midfielder Declan Rice admits he loved playing at Leeds United last season.

Last term, Rice claimed an assist as Michail Antonio scored a last minute winner at Elland Road.

“Going to grounds such as Leeds and Everton last year, they are such tough grounds," Rice told Tubes and Ange's Golf Life. “And their players are strong men.

“Then the crowd (get behind them). I feel like going to grounds and it's a tough stadium. Like Leeds, I have never seen anything like it. It's proper. I love it. I love getting stick from opposition fans. I am buzzing off it."

This season, Rice and his West Ham team-mates visit Elland Road on Saturday, January 2, with the reverse fixture on Saturday, May 20.
