Reece James

Such a good player, he's getting better and better with every game. He should be one of the first names on the team sheet moving forward.

 
This lad HAS to play now no matter who is left out He is going to be an awesome player for us

I'm nailing my colours firmly to the 'Reece' mast, this kid will be the best of the young pack of lions, he's a beast that can play the game.

 
I'm not sure long term if Reece will stay as a RB, think he might end up as an understudy to Willian next season when not required as RB.

Lamptey looks to me like he might be a RB yet between the two we seem really well covered at RB.

Love the physical side to Reece's game though a couple of refs recently thought he was too physical.

He’d probably do a job in goal too. 

If he moves anywhere it’d be in to central midfield.

Too short for goal 😉

I don't contrary to popular opinion see him as a midfielder despite his natural inclination to move inside.

He played central midfield for Wigan last year for 3/4 of the season and won their player of the year. He has the attributes to be a word class right back, he wont be switching positions anytime soon.

 
I'm calling it. Within 2 years Reece James will be regarded higher than TAA, will be Englands number 1 RB and possibly the worlds best in his position. The kids a star in the making.

 
Great performance from the lad, his crosses cause havoc and that’s exactly what’s been missing at home, off the cuff football, don’t think about it just whip it in and see what happens.

 
Every cross feels like a big opportunity with him. He looks capable of getting a couple of assists a game.

He put in TEN crosses today .. and CHO 8 ... vs the left side of 2 from Azpi and 1 from Willian ... 

That right flank looks frightening if they can be consistent, and do it in "big games" as well ...

Call it all you will but personally I think TAA is the world's best right back and will be for the next 5 years. I'll be more than happy enough if RJ is 2nd best. 

TAA is so good though that he may end up being a right midfielder, similar to how Bale made the switch.

Burnley are a poor side. 

James lacks pace and mobility, tbh, and Hudson Odoi isn't great at tracking back. I could see it as a weakness for other teams to exploit should they choose aggressively attack down that side. 

His crossing is good, though.
