That’s why they’re constantly trying to snub several other teams in order to acquire the next big thing, but they’ve also made some mistakes by letting some outstanding prospects leave, as they haven’t been able to produce at the level that’s expected from them, or the first team is just too crowded and they won’t be able to get some playing time.

On the other hand, a team that hasn’t been doing things properly when it comes to youngster, is West London side Chelsea, as their loan policy has been really questionable in the past few years, and they haven’t been able to make the most of the great talent they often acquire and try to develop.

James can play very well with both feet, and his skillset is are his great assets. On top of that, he’s a very fast player, but he still has a lot of room for improvement, especially regarding his physique, but that isn’t something to worry about right now considering he’s just a sixteen year old teenager.

Considering how young Reece is, he should be considering a loan to get some first team minutes, as he’s more than ready to contribute at a higher level that playing for the second team of Chelsea as he’s been doing so far.

However, given how poorly Chelsea has managed his loanees over the past few years, he should really take a look at his options and do whatever is best for his promising career, and that’s why he shouldn’t sign for Manchester United at this early age either.
