    Got into a heated discussion with a friend over Reece James and Ben White

    James is probably the better player, but considering he’s only fit 4 games a season that negates any argument on his ability.

    I’d rather a guy like white who drops 7/10s for 25-30 games a season than someone who drops 10/10 performances for 4 games then is gone rest of the time

      Only Chelsea fans would take James over White. At his best Reece is better than White, but he is only fit for a handful of games in a sport that is getting more and more games added to its calender. Only a few clubs White wouldnt start for atm.

      I felt like that about Wilshere as an Arsenal fan. However, I realized later how important is the ability to stay fit with time.

        Yeah availability is basically as important as how good the player is, especially if they’re a key player you build the team around.
