And still bossing the PL

Concerned about how fresh he'll be for the derby. Colombia play in early hours of Wednesday against Chile, so he'll probably not get back into the City until Thursday or so leaving just one day to prepare/rest up. Same goes for big Yerry and Richarlison - although Richy is less of a worry as he tends to recover very quickly.

All that in 5 games played. Could’ve been a seasons worth of highlights.

Haha

Career highlights for most players wouldn't even come close to that

I'll be shocked If James is not back in Liverpool by Wednesday night

He'll be sound. You could nail his right foot to the floor and he'd still boss it.

'RODRIGUEZ THE WINDOW HIGHLIGHT'

South American football expert Tim Vickery:

"Shall we look at the league table? A few weeks ago, people were trying to write off James Rodriguez based on what had happened at Real Madrid but I'd followed him for Colombia and it was obvious to me that the player that had lit up the World Cup in 2014 hadn't gone away. He was still there.

"He just needed the right circumstances and he's had everything that he wants at Everton. A coach who knows him and admires him, as well as a tactical position that suits him. We're all winning from this. No one was winning from him kicking his heels at Real Madrid.

"Everton have done not only themselves a favour, but they've done football a favour, and I'm delighted it's working out."

Everything I've said about Tim Vickery I take back. James is the sort of player that makes you love football. A fantasista who now plays in royal blue.

He’s one of those players that’s so good that he doesn’t even need pace power or height. He just strolls through games like Iniesta did. Could play at this level for another 5 years with us, he barely runs!

Brazil are playing a couple of days before.

The best little ColOmbian we know.

Seeing that reminds me of the song we once sung about the current Arsenal manager. Only James creativity makes Arteta look like he was Tom Davies.

James Rodriguez: The King in Blue is showing Everton are serious | Squawka

James Rodriguez is an Everton player and the Toffees are top of the Premier League. You may want to repeat that to yourself a few

www.squawka.com

This is the bit that got me

Some superstars go to “smaller” clubs like Everton and play down to their surroundings. Others play to their usual level but on their own, never managing to bring anyone with them (Alexis Sánchez springs to mind). The final group raise every player up, they inspire as much as they thrill, and Rodriguez is one such player. And with him in the side, Everton are a team to be taken seriously.

All hail James Rodriguez, the King in Blue!

0 sprints the other game! He could do this years as you say

I do believe that so much attention is being turned on JR that the quality of the rest of the team is being ignored.

I remember say last season that often good players can perform badly when circumstances and manager are not right.

Yes, of course JR is world class, Allan and Doucoure have proven to be what we hoped they would be.... but, all the others are doing hugely well also.

I think this would be most clearly seen in the transfer market should we decide to sell, I think most have substantially increased their value in the space of just a couple of months.
