It is sad but it's a difficult situation. James was getting opportunities but he just hasn't taken them. He's a 80 M player yet he is being outperformed by the likes of Casemiro,Jese,Vasquez etc who didn't cost anything... (the most expensive one was the loan buy-back option of 8 M for Casemiro,Vasquez was 1 M and Jese castilla) .Last season he was amazing,this season it's like he lost everything. His shot,passing,dribbling,everything has detoriated. Cristiano is probably the one who cares most about him. They always seemed close and had a good connection. Even in that gif you can see Cristiano's face. James acted like a douchebag in that gif and went through Ramos. Dick move. You can also see when Real is 2-0 down and the pitch invader happens, Carvajal has a serious face meanwhile James laughs.
There are plenty of problems with him. His attitude,Colombian temper and he seems spiteful. When things are going good he's good and when they are bad it's FREAKING bad. Unfortunately the trio of Kroos,Modric and James is too easy to expose.
James is getting his change tomorrow and he should grab it if he even wants a chance to be at RM next season. Otherwise he's off to Manchester in a transfer worth over 70-75 M.
