Reece James

hmm 25 years old.. so many muscle injuries. RVP had issues early and so did Arjen.. hope he can turn it around like them. If he can be slotted back into his RB position..  It transforms us immediately.

Possibly, but just a short temporary fix. Sentiment aside we should have sold him years ago. 

Have to think he’ll be on the bench again today. They’ll bring him back slow and we try again. It’s so frustrating. 

Just checked - he is on the bench.

Surely starts against Morecambe. Why put him on the bench if he isn't ready to play. 

Why not bring him on for 15 minutes when we are defending a lead and Gusto has been poor, again?

James stops Eze getting that cross to Mateta, imo.

Should have had the last 30 minutes imo. Gusto has been off it all season, not sure why we're persisting with him other than fitness but we have enough options. 

Think he’ll play vs Morecombe as it will be a lower intensity game. But that in itself suggests they don’t really consider him fit enough for PL intensity right now.

Thank you Reece James.

Not for the result, that still is carp. But for, once again, coming back and reminding exactly who you are, and who you would have become had your body not let you down.

That was a lovely moment, very happy for him.

Am I asking too much.

 

Megastar last night rescuing a point for us, can be a tank alongside Caicedo in midfield with Lavia.

I share El Regreso's thoughts.

James scoring was the only thing that made me smile in regards to Chelsea today. Like I said in the match thread, nobody deserved a goal more than him after what he has gone through.

that palmer finish had me beaming ear to ear.

I would have been the same, but I was worried about him being offside.

We're walking in a Palmer wonderland mate. Where he plays there are no offsides. keeper ended up in limbo.

Even if the flag did go up... it was outrageous... Honestly, the keeper will be reliving that one to his last breath. 

 

 

Please, for the love of God, please do not mismanage him and let him stay fit!

What a pleasure it is to have him back.

I have forgot what it was like to have a proper leader at the back, and it reminded me how much I miss Thiago. 

Having someone actually worthy of the armband wearing it means a lot.

Yeah man.. and as he was getting subbed his message to Caicedo.. 

Reece is a dream player. We need him to stay fit.

There's more to leadership than this anyway but hopefully his moment with Caicedo last night puts an end to the myth he's too nice or timid to be the club captain.

I see people claim he and others cant be a leader because of their demeanor, but I have been much more impressed and been much more willing to follow those who lead by example and have a much calmer and more exacting manner than the tub thumping angry ones over a length of time. People refer to JT but he wasnt one for charging around thumping his chest that often, he led by example.
