π£οΈ Xabi Alonso on Chelsea captain Reece James:

βI would say so. I would say heβs very comfortable, very confident playing in that position.
βHe has the intelligence to play there. He has the intelligence to connect with teammates around in the middle to know whatβs the best thing before and after you get the ball. And he has this awareness.
βI remember seeing him play very well in the middle. So yes, we are using him. He will have a lot of minutes in there as a first midfielder.
βI knew he could play there. I remember the last Club World Cup final in New York. He played with Moi [Caicedo] in the middle.
βAt Anfield, I think he played there last year. Itβs not new for him. Itβs not that Iβm discovering something.
βI think it has the needs of the team and his role in the team as well. Because I remember the game against Fulham [last month]. His impact in terms of emotionally, in terms of captain, leadership in the middle, heβs closer to everything and he can play an important role.β

βFor me, physically he is fresh and he is prepared. He has been competing in the Premier League so that for me is not an issue.
βAs a midfielder you need to take a lot of little decisions, many right decisions because you are always very connected to the game.
βYou are very close to the action and if you are walking it is not possible. So Reece is really involved in the game.
βHe is already knowing where he has to be. He has the capacity to help the teammates around him so that is very important for me as well because he has this presence.
βHe has the respect from the teammates that when he tells something they listen and they follow him.β
