2020/21 James Rodriguez

[Zezti]

Going to be really missed for us. Hopefully its only the one game.

Carlo calling it mistimed is probably just to avoid becoming a media target but VVD is a dirty player. What he did at the start of the game to James and DCL was fully intentional and he's been like it his whole career and gets lauded for it. That's why I have no sympathy for him. F him.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Carlo isn't going to lie about this

 

[Ring master]

The fact that he is out has turned this game from an auto-win into a struggling 50/50 in my head

If only there was such a thing, not an easy game this and even harder with 2/3 of our better players [maybe] out, become's even harder test now

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Won’t be close to the media storm for this

 

[NathDogg]

Just how good is this fella?

He played the entire derby after picking up a knock from a despicable challenge from the sainted VVD, that's now kept him out of a match a wholeweek later, and he put in a shift and performance against the vermin like he did?!? Wow! Imagine what we are going to get when he's proper fit and used to the pace of the league! Incredible player

No wonder he was subdued by his standards and looked goosed second half of the derby!

Hope he's back soon, he's an absolute pleasure to watch play football.

Great media play from don carlo

spun it perfectly

This is exactly what it is, James isn't injured - it was a 180° on the media frenzy surrounding VVD.

 

[DanEFC92]

Dirty rats.

 

[Lelouch]

Don't see why he would lie about this? It doesn't change much at all, Everyone seen the VVD tackle on James and it's a non factor story to neutrals and the RS fans.
Seems bizarre to pull something like this, Think Ancelotti is too old for this nonsense.

he could be,but he said we would not sign a keeper and we did,said kean would get mins at Everton and he is at PSG,so we will see sunday,little odd to me how he played whole game if injured 1st few mins

 

[Jim Hopper]

Has anyone found VVDs Mrs on Instagram yet and threatened to kill his kids? Oh wait... only one club’s fans does that.

yeah that's pretty true tbf.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Anyone got a clip of the tackle? Actual tackle not his weapon.

 

[mos6141]

He definitely brought up VVD name to send a message, but James is injured. There was a period in the game where he was down on the pitch for a bit of time aswell

 

[Connor]

Oh no

He looked completely gassed at the end didn’t he? Did he also take a knock when he played that ball to Digne down the left which led to DCL’s goal?
