    23 years old, over 150 professional games played, and he’s taking lessons from something that shouldn’t be happening whatsoever after about 50 professional games. The way he totally loses his composure when frustration creeps in is his biggest flaw aside from staying fit. It’s like he doesn’t fully understand just how important he is as a player. I use to joke that our entire attack flows through him because he’s a literal game changer but then the more he played the more that joke became a fact of life. So, sure, Malo Gusto playing next week isn’t necessarily a bad thing but it’s clear how much Reece ups the levels when he actually plays.

    Reece James, Marcus Rashford and Marc Ter-Stegen should be teammates one day.

    Instead of improving on the pitch, they will put in a 5 star performance on a fucking social media platform

    This is a really uncharacteristic performance from him today, but the whole of Chelsea just didn’t turn up, especially their few experienced players. Silva had a mare and Sterling was poor outside of his free-kick.

    Inconsistent performances like that may be the price Chelsea pay the next few years for going all in on youth. James is still under 25 so is an unusually young choice for captain as well.

    I suspect he is really going to blossom into his role over the next few years if he can just stay healthy. I’m hopeful for him with the very carefully managed return he’s had so far this time and with Gusto to share the load more.

    “I take full responsibility for my red card”

    It’s so obvious you don’t need to say it. Of course it’s your fault, who else’s fault would it be?

    Gordon sold the yellow like a bitch but James fate was sealed when he tried to cut back towards his own goal like that
