No chance he'll sign an extension to play in this team. An incredible talent, would get in any team in the league.

He seemed to be getting frustrated by the quality / effort if teammates around him towards the end. I don't blame him. The only player who earned their wage today.

I thought James played pretty well, but the physicality of Newcastle went unpunished; as can happen in the premier league, and that got to his mental state. Game plan went to perfection for Steve Bruce.

Look at some of the crap he’s having to work with. We don’t deserve him at times.

Kept going despite the late tackles, but definitely dropped off a lot in the second half.
You could call that getting "kicked out of it", which is exactly the kind of thing I've been reading in here is a myth that commentators have made up because they don't like James and doesn't happen.

He's too good for us , he won't stick around long
And stop giving away stupid fouls when you lose the ball in the attacking third.
Problem is he's getting frustrated because he's having to drop deep a lot of the time to pick the ball up when in reality he needs to be higher up the pitch where he can cause the most damage.
Wouldn't be surprised or mad in the slightest if he moved on after this season. It's not like James Rodriguez wanted to come to fn Everton to not play in Europe for 2 years straight.
That's true but you can understand the frustration.
Quality players are used to playing with other players who know what to do.
I didn't have crowd noise on the stream I watched and our mob were silent. It's pathetic.
Newcastle did a job on James today. Kicked him to bits and wound him up. We were reduced to him having to collect the ball of the centre-backs and he had no runners around him.
He was good first half the did nothing second half.
He reminded me of Rooney a bit today in the second half. Absolutely nullified himself by coming far too deep to receive the ball and only tried Holywood passes.
He has to play further forward. To get the ball to him we need Davies or Allan.

Chill, he's happy here.
He wasn't good today but as long as Carlo's here, he's happy.
We need to get better players to play with him.
