2020/21 James Rodriguez

[Blunatic]

Absolutely no problem with him not defending if he is creating, but when he has barely had a sniff he can stand out. Coleman poor, but he is constantly defending two players.
Get into it James - been 3 poor halves now.

exactly!

We are just not good enough to carry a player no matter what their talent on the ball is. It´s the Premier League and he needs to get up to speed.

 

[SLICKDUDE468]

He's a liability good player but will cost us you need work rate through the team you can't carry anyway no matter how good they are going forward, he's a good squad player for the very elite but starting him every week.....

 

[UptheTofees]

He has been poor

We are also not playing at all through the right side.

Hopefully he gets better and hopefully tactically we look for him more.

 

[LocalNative]

Looks absolutely half arsed today.

 

[Blunatic]

if gylfi or iwobi played like he has this half their thread would not be so quiet.

Problem is Rodriquez has done more in his first 3 or 4 games than the other two have done in their Everton careers so it's why he gets cut more slack

 

[bluerobert]

There’s been no movement ahead of him, he’s turning back and getting caught out. As with most games this season without an in form Richarlison I think we need some pace and movement ahead of him rather then constantly turning back towards our own goal

 

[sageyefc]

Gove him the bloody ball

 

[UptheTofees]

He misses Richy

He misses Gomes

 

[Axlswhk]

We should stop playing him right midfield. Week after week we suffer on the right and we let in two goals with crosses at the area he is suppose to help. No right back in the world can cope defensively with James ahead of him.

play him in the position which require the least defensive work - roaming center attacking midfield.

 

[Tubey]

Looked, at most, 25% fit.

 

[UptheTofees]

I hope he stays in England. Shouldn't go to Colombia for the conmebol games. He is not fit

 

[Sharpies volley]

Been a bit concerned about him for a while now. Seems to be a one trick pony. Gets the ball out wide, comes inside onto his left, time and time again. Opposing teams onto him now.

Nah. He really just hasn't been fit.

He misses Richy to play his cross field game

Misses a CM that gets him on the ball.

He will be fine.
