Should You Buy James?
Reasons to Buy
- Strong value at £5.5m - 4.0 PPG makes him one of the better-value DEFs
Reasons to Avoid
- Poor form (0.0) - returns have dried up in recent weeks
- Overperforming xG (2 goals vs 1.04 xG) - returns may be unsustainable
Avoid for now. James faces headwinds - multiple concerns suggest better options exist at the DEF position in this price range.
