Another example of flo having the gift of gab with any footballer
Kind reminder that this guy has nearly identical G+A p90 ratio for Real Madrid as Gareth Bale. He was special during Carlo’s last season and made us forget about Di Maria. Sadly the team with him in squad was less balanced than with KCM on the pitch, so James had to make room for Casemiro and it turned out great for us. But never listen to people who say James was a flop for us, even from the bench he had great contributions.
And also clashed with Isco’s prime for the only “spot” available in the starter team after Bale’s injury. Great player, but needed to feel important which did not last long.
