The start of Everton’s campaign in England has driven passionate fans from anticipation to optimism and no one scoffs when it comes to returning to the Champions League. Less if the one proposing it is the great signing, James Rodríguez.
The Colombian said it earlier, in an interview with Rio Ferdinand, and he is now repeating it, that Everton is at the top of the Premier League and that it is possible to dream of anything: “Playing football and football is not just about running. Football is all about getting your teammates to play in the best way and helping them win. I always say that if you have talent and ability you can play anywhere. This is what I want and try to do: help the team, so it can play at the highest level, ”he explained in an interview for his club.
This is how he makes it clear: what he lacks in speed and brand he will make up for with talent. Now the question is with whom? And the answer in the Colombian’s mind is Dominic Calvert-Lewin: both have adapted well on the field, the first has already scored 14 goals in all competitions of the season and the second has already scored three and as many assists. in 12 outings. They are without a doubt a successful society.
“He is a very young player, but still seems very ambitious. He is hungry to score. I hope he will score 30 goals this year. That would certainly help the team achieve great things and score points,” said James about his reference in the area. his rival, whom he hopes will, hopefully very soon, dust off Gary Lineker’s record of 30 annotations in 1986. guaranteed.
And that’s James’ plan, seen in the most pragmatic way. The ball passes in front of Ancelotti, who now has to design the plan for Everton to live up to the expectation.
Fortunately for the Colombian, no one likes his current coach to understand him and give him the time and confidence to release him from the pressure. The Italian himself recently said he was not worried about the left-hander or the victims and that the farewell week came to ask for nothing: “ It will be an important moment for us to recover and bring all the players who don’t into better conditions. . they’ve trained a lot in recent times, such as James, Richarlison and Lucas Digne, who will be back soon, ”he said.
After the creative’s return and criticism that Everton looks better without him (in fact, he won everything up to the time of his return), the strategist said, “It’s important to have James back, he had a problem and not. He was able to train well. He was on track for 30 minutes, but he has to keep improving. He will be in better shape for the next game. “
In this way, the case will be settled, the pieces will start moving and James will know that aside from the inevitable injuries, his team misses him and expects his talent not to be compromised and that he is actually the weapon to make up the difference. to make. . There will be no extra pressure than he is used to. It will be a matter of getting comfortable, like when he landed in the PM, and doing his thing. Do you have to put in a bit more to adjust to the English rhythm? Surely. But along the way, his left hand has all the answers. It’s a matter of trust.
