James vuelve a lesionarse y de nuevo hay angustia en el Everton y en la Selección de Colombia. Cuando no son sus pantorrillas, que lo aquejan con mucha frecuencia, son las consecuencias de las faltas que recibe, las patadas, algunas de las cuales parecen haberse vuelto recurrentes.

While the Premier League is ascribed to be the most talented league in the world, the EFL Championship might be as difficult, if not more so, than the English top flight.
In terms of talent, the Championship is just a small step below the Premier League and there is little disparity between the top and bottom of the table. 23rd place Birmingham has beaten second place Brentford and fifth place Reading this season, while Derby County beat Norwich then went winless for two months and dropped to the bottom of the table.
