Reece James deserves better than to be playing mid-table Premier League football under a manager sacked by a relegation-threatened club...
When your starting XI contains only one player who has scored more than two goals this season – and that one player is an oft-comedically bad finisher – then you should not be surprised if goals are not forthcoming. Chelsea caretaker boss Frank Lampard picked as many Frank Lampards as he was allowed against Real Madrid, opting for grunt and graft over guile, though the kick in the nuts was that none of his Frank Lampards could finish remotely like the original.
The exception for Chelsea was – as it so often is – Reece James. If his struggles in the opening leg in Madrid had extended the waiting list for, then the second leg might see it fast-tracked. James has not quite dazzled in the months since his return from injury but at Stamford Bridge he was central to everything Chelsea were trying to achieve – directing play, demanding the ball, easing past Real Madrid players, delivering crosses.
