Good luck in the Copa James, safe journeys.

Already broken MLS transfer rules for the type of player/contract he'd be, so no

Any Californian sides that might fit his profile?

I'm sorry but you are trying way too hard to excuse him from what really was a piss poor decision not to show up to the first home game in ages where fans could attend. Especially as he wasn't available for the Arsenal and Chelsea games. It's the players' duty and he couldn't be arsed. If there are genuine reasons why he couldn't attend then they need to be clearly communicated otherwise the fans will, rightfully, be aggrieved.
Think of the context of this season as well, people have had a really shitty year. And I'm a huge fan of the player as well. It really clashes with the ethos of the club and we deserve better.

Tbf though mate Fergie never had to call his group of players out as being cowards!
I just think it doesn't look good in the same week as publically calling out your squad as being lazy cowards to then let James bugger off early as he is "tired".
The fact he wasn't modelling the new away kit sends alarm bells though as I said yesterday why wouldn't you have your most marketable player modelling the new kit?
Wouldn't be suprised if he isn't here come next season.
Was there not pictures of him and his family together on New Years eve?
I'm not criticising him - I'd be amazed if he hadnt seen his kid in over a year. I certainly couldn't do it.
His daughter would still be there tomorrow mate?
Maybe James should have a social media blackout for a weekend so everyone stops online abuse right away.
That was over here, where he only has some family, not all
He can't travel to City anyway Michael, he's injured
These are the rules

in memoriam - 1965-2024
He called them feeble, light weight, and afraid of winning.
Kinda amounts to the same thing.
What is his injury C? Is it still tiredness?
Duty to attend a game if he's not fit enough to play? Do you mean to sit in the stands for the fans sake or to play through an injury for their sake?
The club have given a reason - he was jaded. Now, that may be a different discussion entirely but if the club have decided to accept he isn't fit then there it is.
While I do to an extent agree with your last two sentences, I also feel that the club have to consider the wider context of his fitness and next season.
You may think it's making excuses, fair enough; personally, I feel it's more along the lines of being calm and rational rather than being needlessly angry.
Well I for one certainly buy that he has a calf injury.
