Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca believes it would be a good idea to have right-back Reece James 100% fit. As it would make competition for the position even more intense and would also add a free-kick weapon to his right foot.

James has had knee and muscle problems. Which has caused him to play inconsistently for several seasons. Until yesterday’s home game against Bournemouth. When he came on as a substitute and scored a free kick in the 90+5th minute of injury time ทางเข้า UFABET 

With right-footed James helping out with set pieces and left-footed Cole Palmer, Maresca is confident the Blues’ arsenal of weapons will improve. 

“I’m very happy for him, he deserved that goal after a difficult time,” he told Chelsea TV.

“It still saves us a point, so I’m happy for Reece and happy for us.” 

“His goal from now on is to be fit for the whole season because James can help the team in the way we want to play.” 

“Reece can measure his free-kick prowess with Cole Palmer because that’s another strength of the captain.”

“We decided to let Reece take the shot and he hit it in. So we were happy because at least we got a point.” 

Reece James the 25-year-old has just played his 6th game in all competitions this season, scoring 1 goal and 1 assist.
