He’s a playmaker. He sees and delivers passes. If he was a giggs type or a Ronaldo type yes you’re right but he’s world class at what he does.
Unfortunately it’s a bit pointless if he has no one to pass to, don’t make the runs or they don’t stick away their chances etc.
I don’t normally so directly disagree with people on here but on this occasion you are wrong mate.
For Christs sake don't mention him on the same page as Messi. While we're at it: If our team yesterday
contained Messi instead of Rodriguez, what final score do you think?

Do you think JR would have been happy to sit on the bench at Everton? One thing is to do it in B Munich and Real Madrid where he was not found good enough, and where they do not allow any passengers on the team. But Everton? He came here because this was the best option, and because Ancelotti promised him a significant role on the team.
He has fantastic skills, something I have repeated countless times, but if we want to build a top team, we must steer clear of these player profiles. At the top level there are marginal differences, and if you have to use one player to cover up for another teammate's weaknesses, you have no chance. You might have done it ten years ago, but that time is over. Just look at Ronaldo at Juventus. He scores his goals, but the team gradually gets worse, and when they face real opposition in the CL, they are knocked out. The modern playmaker is KDB, and he runs his socks off in every match.

I'm just saying what every leader in a top club says. It's sad, but football is a cynical industry. I care about Everton, not individual players, and for me it is important that we buy players who make the club competitive with the best.

Classic case of - people are upset and then just throw darts on a dartboard and blame whoever.
The guy won MOTM in the match thread...
But yeah he needs to do more - if he doesn't score 3 a game because he's so "highly rated" it means he failed. /s

How have you read my post, and thought I compared him to Messi ??
I said he seems to do the similar thing of scanning the space and picture of the opposition in the first part of the match......like Messi is known for.
Jeeez.

He is one of the best in the world to scan the field. In addition, he has a world-class left leg.
Out of interest, which current players would you say are at the same level as James. Not players better than him, but players at the same level.

I do not quite know what to comment on that. The ladies in Iceland are incredibly beautiful, almost like in Norway, but beyond that I have no special feelings for Iceland.

He nearly did. No other player on the pitch would've scored the goal he did. That is what quality is.
Haven't all of his goals been key goals (as in they've directly won us points, not scoring the 3rd or 4th goal in a comfortable win)?

What a strange way to argue. I have set out my views, which I would say are quite balanced. You can either just ignore them, or you can argue properly. You do not have to involve Iceland in this. I am open to making mistakes, but that is my analysis based on data and experience.
