The Colombian Prodigal Son Returns - The James Rodríguez Thread

I don't agree that it's the most logical way. We have different opinion regarding this and i dont think that is the opinion of majority who is supporting our team... Rm supporter is bigger than this measage board.

 

Too many red flags with James last years. I first believed the clubs were wrong about him, but that cant be the case or else he would have showed it by now.

 

This is all on you.....

Then why keep people guessing with the shenanigans? This medical privacy issue that came up recently is turning things into a charade and Zidane is milkingbit for all it's worth by refusing to answer basic questions in good faith.

And maybe Zidane was right or maybe he really is a shaman and is to blame for cursing James. Maybe he's a clairvoyant who looked into the future.... but I do not believe this began with James being injured.

 

James is a top talent

But he needs to go to a mid level team where his spot is safe

He plays a position that is outdated; therefore competes for players that are playing on their actual positions, and he is always hurt.

At this point, he needs that Neymar status where he is hurt but will play whenever available

 

Yup unfortunately his best position doesn’t exist in our current set up, I’ll be the outsider and say I think he will still make a significant contribution to this team this season if he stays fit and lasts beyond the winter window

 

Easily

 

Moderators are the least of our problems here...

 

I plead the 5th...

 

Or maybe he really wasn’t ready to train or play as was said all along? Hmmm

 

Smh, come on man..

You know that national teams can force players to make the trip to check for themselves and last I checked players can decide they want to make the trip because they feel fit enough anyways.

Real Madrid can't block James from making the trip and the club surely didn't send him as you suggest.

 

The whole world thought he had taken time off to be with his newborn because the club never issued any kind of statement showing support for him or indicating any other plausible reason for his absence. After he got dropped a couple of more games but called up for the national team and the "exit gate" gate scandal heated up then all of a sudden Zidane comes back with the world's most ambiguously vague statement on a player's status.

 

Keep spinning so you can continue stirring the pot.

If James wanted to go on NT duty, there’s nothing we can do about it. And for someone that’s so well informed on every subject, I’m sure you’ll know a minor injury can always lead to a more significant one. And I don’t recall anyone claiming he traveled with a severe injury, and who knows maybe he was coming back to fitness, relapses are common when you come back to soon as well.

Point is, my speculation is as likely as your conspiracy theories that you pass off as facts.

 

James voluntarily stayed in Madrid during the last international break, and there was no issue with it even though at that point he looked like he was in peak condition.

I'm not buying it. Didn't he just take some time off to go down there for his child's birth.

Maybe that's why he felt it was necessary to force the issue and get some playing time knowing that Zidane was going to block his reentry to the lineup.

But there was never any transparency with regard to reporting the injury, we still don't know generally or specifically what the reasons were for the medical restrictions on his training in Madrid. Normally we know with in a few hours what a players injury status is barring follow up MRI's, etc., but in this case there was absolutely no transparency and the public was left guessing for multiple games.

And only now do we have evidence of an actual injury, this one being suffered after leaving Madrid and flying across the globe to train in Columbia.

I blame @Drouchk, Zidane and that for hire witch Doctor they used to put this curse on James.

 

And Bale played two games without any issue whatsoever, even going so far to insult the club and now he's right back with the team.

Maybe Zidane's estimations aren't as full proof as advertised, and are about as hit and miss as anything on big soccer.

Exactly.

Need a change of formation to accommodate James: "nah, it would be easier to just play Lucas Vasquez instead."

Need a goals scoring AM to round out the squad with the easiest safest option being to just hold on to James: "Nah, let's make things difficult and spend all summer negotiating for Pogba at 150ME, then make last ditch efforts to pick up Donnie freakin Van der Beek, all the while turning down every offer that comes in for James because its fun to watch his ass suffer."
