2020/21 James Rodriguez

[LocalNative]

Can see him leaving this summer. As incredible a player as he is, wouldn't even be that arsed. He's only able to play about 50% of games a season anyway.

 

[jamieni]

Clearly the most talented player in the squad by far but at the same time when he plays he doesn't really improve our results that much. Everton that.

To be fair he put a chance on a plate for Richarlison against Sheff Utd. Not his fault we can’t finish our dinner at the min. A lot of our players just aren’t on his wavelength whatsoever.

 

[jamieni]

Aww bless him

let’s give him a pay rise and build a statue of him.

That’s how we like to do it here.

 

[Tubey]

Or he has an ongoing calf problem and can’t play twice in four days.

Don't buy it; he'd be on the bench if playing back to fitness, or wouldn't play at all if he was injured.

I honestly think now he's being allowed to choose his games.

Agree, love him to pieces but is it worth keeping him?

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

Would rather he didn't play against Sheffield, but did with fans in the stands.

Around Christmas he took a month off! He definitely picks and chooses.

Oh I give up

That's definitely what's happening. Ancelotti has eluded to it in the past that he speaks with James to see how he's feeling and if he's not 100% he isn't even risked.

 

[Efcjake]

Maybe they just don't want him playing 2 in a week and think he would be better kept for City?

 

[Azza]

Wouldn't blame him if he told Carlo he wasn't playing with this rabble again.

 

[ToffeeTim]

We have a problem.

We aren't good enough for him to thrive, and he isn't fit enough to help us thrive.

Dunno what the answer is.

 

[Stephen Gibson]

It's not really worked out has it. Would do well in France. Shame.

 

[Nymzee]

Better kept for a nothing game away to the champs? Pointless much.

 

[JMT]

chances we rushed him back for the sheffield match unfit uhhhhhhhh I'd say 99%.
