Yeah, I'd say the biggest ball we dropped was not landing James last year. This is a player who was completely attainable and had a reputation before the World Cup last year. He can play pretty much in every attacking position (and even apparently central midfield), and is left-footed. I don't know why we weren't all over that.
James at CAM would be a game-changer for our team, and would make our team way more unpredictable.
