Chelsea legend John Terry disagrees with the current main coach Enza Maresca Assessment of the best position of Reece James.
James spent the vast majority of his career playing the right or right wing, occasionally filling as a third wide central back when needed.
His performances in this role were cited by James to be considered one of The best in the worldBut many serious injuries turned a 25-year-old career. Now it fits again, Mareca has moved to the central midfielder – the role Chelsea Boss feels the most appropriate to play.
But former Captain Terry, who spent 19 years in Chelsea, played in 717 games at all competitions and won multiple Premier LeagueFa cups and Champions League And the Europa League, he does not see things the same way as former Leicester City chief-in-place, in accordance with the current head of England Thomas Tuchel that she is full of back.
“I agree with this (Tuchel’s assessment). I see him as a defender,” Terry said, in the quotations he transmitted BBC Sport. “I don’t like, to be honest, people who go in (to the midfielder) I think it’s more confusing.
“The midfielders are very comfortable with their backs to the finish line. When the defenders enter these roles, it is probably the opposite, we are probably not comfortable to receive the ball with our back on goal.
“A very different role and above all, speaking of the 2005-06 season. We acknowledged 15 goals, and top teams were built on good foundations and I think you need it.
“To be able to do this, you need four or solid three in place.”
Tuchel spoke about James’s best position after handing over a call to him England Detachment for the first time since March 2023 – an indicator of how serious his injuries were his problems.
“I still feel that the player is in full back positions and wings, I think we have enough players in the central midfielder who are more specialists there,” Tuchel told Media.
When asked if James is still physically able to play on a full back: “We have to see if he can do it. He must prove the point, to be honest, he must prove that he can do it.”
