I think the reason why Maresca is using James as part of the back 3 rather than inverting him is because of his injuries. Maresca doesn't want to put too much stress on his muscles because the amount of grounds an inverted fullback needs to cover is no joke very stressful.
@@talkfootballty2025 yeah, I also wish James could be in those half space and we know what he can do with ball in those spaces. But he needs to be protected from injuries because I fear what will happen if he get injured again
The same team Newcastle we will play them again on Wednesday, but Chelsea will use second team, let see what difference we will see from palmer will not be there and Jackson
Your mad what is madueke doing to you guys.....don't you guys see he is the only player that keeps driving at wing backs????.......come on at any opponent he drives dirrect we've seen at times Sancho drives & stop neto drives & stop madueke never stop.......madueke is the man for the RW maresca know what he is doing.....he just need to stop using gusto that way & play cucurella & try to get a better keeper & a CB
@oshaneDoyle And what is the end result after him driving at wing. You can't see that the guy is so selfish. He doesn't pass the ball. He only want to be assisted by he doesn't want to assist others. How many assists he has this season so far??
@MatovuLivingstone-y6f yes u can count & say he doesn't have much but didn't he makes an attempt??? U there acting like every ball get in the box goes in the net.......he's not selfish to me he's ambitious & if u don't shoot u can't score that's what we've been lacking recent season everybody want to pass the ball pass the GK look at city they take shot from outside the box yet nobody saying they players selfish but we here beating down on our players.........end product he has goals & the season has just started he's not a crosser like James & Neto he's a dribbler give him flowers for his attribute not take it away bcz of what he doesn't have
@oshaneDoyle I can see you're defending him, but let me tell you Madueke needs to step up his game. Ask yourself this question ⁉️ "Why the Gaffer in previous game substituted him so earlier than usual??"
@MatovuLivingstone-y6f you can see that he was tired in the 2nd half I was even begging maresca to take him off lil b4 he was sub.......& yes I would love to see him improve & play more like a Salah or saka & have more impact on the game that's for sure but if we stop playing him how will he improve on the bench????......I see him & estavo scaring ppl next season I just want him to get all the game time he can get this season & improve on every attribute so
