2021/22 James Rodriguez

Benitez was the manager of the club we hate the most and vice versa. I’m sure he was angry after the match and just said it in the heat of the moment.

Moise Kean and James are players of Everton FC, who by the way pay their wages! They have no professionalism and need to be shipped out now!

Maybe some are just 'interpreting' what James said wrong mate.

10th....but he's 'world class'.

Moving the goalposts, I never mentioned world class and that wasn't your post I quoted.

You said he wasn't that productive. The fact that there were only 21 players in the entire league who contributed to more goals than him suggests otherwise.

How do you back a player that's just made a statement of intent to join another club?

How?

i don’t back him

I’m saying let’s not act as if he sucks

I’ve said all along

if he wants to go, bye Felicia

but I’m not gonna seat here and pretend he is a bad player because of that

 

[Lord Buckethead]

If Rafael the great dosent want him he needs to sling his hook and be gone

Yet when he subtly responds to a Club that shows a bit of interest taking him, he's accused of being "unprofessional" and "disrespectful"

Bingo.

'Productivity.... per 90s'....for a player who takes 12 game sabbaticals.

FFS.

What a shambles of a stat.

Well we've missed out on our first-choice RB target because we couldn't cobble together £12.5m. We tracked Bailey for years but couldn't afford him.

I'm fed up of giving the club the benefit of the doubt. We're hopeless.

We tracked Bailey? Since when?

Unless tracking means his name coming up on here for a few years?

Yep, they could possibly be. However, I think we all know what he means with the smiley face and soon ->. It’s a bit obvious, don’t you think?

I also don’t think he was isolating. He was on twitch with Yerry Mina last week.

To be honest mate and I don't know why, but I was a bit dubious in regards to the isolating line.

Just read that back to yourself.

Absolutely howling here.

At the end of the gay I'm not going to give any of my time to a player who doesn't want to he here or give 100%. He was so frustrating last season missing so many games and a downer when he wasn't on the team sheet.

All stats are shambolic.

Yeah, we need full commitment from our players, we have a committed manager, the players either fall in line or fall off.
Were going places, no room for passenger's.

Thanks for underlining my point.

McNeil is a good crosser. Happens to play on the left where Richarlison is gonna spend a lot of time unless we play 4-4-2 which isn't suited to our midfield options.

He played more passes/crosses into the box than any of the players last season, per 90, other than McNeil. So I'm not sure why he'd be unable to help us in that regard.

Remember that incredible ball he played to Richarlison in the first derby, when Richarlison hit the post? How about his cross in to Keane for the equaliser in that game, or the one to Mina in the Brighton game. How about the defence-splitting througball to Coleman in that Palace match? How about the brilliant pass out to Digne against Wolves (A), when he played in a 4-4-2 and did it really well, working hard as a striker in the middle of January?

Quality players can fit into systems. I don't think James should stay and start every game. I think he should stay and complement other players, and that we should focus on getting tosh out of the door, not actual quality. But no, this is Everton, we just give up when things are hard, waggle our finger at big clubs taking the p*** (though do nothing about it) and then do something nice for charity.

James Rodriguez....more productive than Jonjoe Shelvey.
