Another gray James match at Everton against Burnley? Yes and no. It is true that it was an acceptable balance, that he did not lack attitude or sacrifice, but it is also true that, at 1-1, he was not in the photo of the goal and he could not give a hand in a game that had to be won anyway .
He was encouraged at 6 minutes with a shot that lacked power, joined with Richarlison and Iwobi to put danger again and put a beautiful change of front for Richarlison, who lost the tie in the final shot.
But he would gradually fall into the general inaccuracy of his team in the pass, he lost a couple of balls in the midfield and created complications for his defense and was already moving away from his Brazilian partner, with which the attack was flattened.
His contribution was scarce in those first minutes, beyond the 1-1 draw he sipped the rest, and seemed more animated, when at 50 he almost scored a goal: assistance from Iwobi and a beautiful left-footed shot that Pope saved against the post. A shame because it was a great goal!
Then James sinned, like all his teammates in the delivery, he was moving away from the men in point and, adding fatigue, he could not find more than one way to the goal, which unfortunately was wasted: a subtlety came out of his left leg to enable Sigurdsson, who could not define what should have been the winning goal.
The individual balance is not bad, but the group condemns it: Everton left with a taste of defeat from Burnley’s house despite the 1-1 and the Colombian is not saved in a blue attack that has become flat and predictable.
