James Rodríguez returned to Everton after being called up with the national team and Carlo Ancelotti immediately sent him as the starter on the ninth day of the Premier League (a match they won 3-2 at Fulham).
Now, while Colombians criticize the “bad moment” that James is supposedly going through, from England they defend him for his great impact on the Liverpool team.
As usual, the ‘Liverpool Echo’ made an analysis on what the victory ‘toffee’ left in the Craven Cottage stadium (London). Alex Iwobi and, to the surprise of many, the Cucuteño midfielder were featured.
Michael Ball, a former English footballer who debuted and played for Everton for five years, spoke about him. In the first place, he praised the ex-Real Madrid’s movements within the field to open spaces for his teammates and his great impact on offense.
“The left-back explained how the Colombian moved to the center during Sunday’s win against Fulham, taking the defenders with him and creating space for Iwobi to take over the right wing.” Recall that for that duel, Ancelotti chose a 3-4-3 formation with the Nigerian as the winger.
Based on the above, Ball explained that as the opposing players are focused on canceling Rodríguez Rubio, “his teammates have more time and space” to play in the opposite field.
Finally, he delved into the defensive tasks of James: “He was not signed for his defensive contributions, so Everton should focus on getting the best of him in attack.” Clear message for your critics.
