The shape of him
Reece James is a 26-year-old defender at Chelsea and a England international. In 26/27 that meant 15 club appearances and 929 minutes. Defending is anticipation as much as tackling: reading the pass before it is played, holding the line, and starting the attack from the back.
The job
Win the individual duels, protect the space behind, and give the team a platform to build from.
