The deal between Everton and Al Rayyan for James Rodriguez is complete, he passed his medical today as well. A really weird transfer, he was in Real Madrid a few years ago and started really well at Everton last season, he's fairly young and I did not expect he will end up somewhere in Qatar.
I always liked him as a player, but a lot of technically gifted players that do not really participate in the defensive part of the game end up at Qatar or UAE or USA too early.

I must say it's very sad. He would have provided a lot of support to the strikers at Everton like he used to when Ancelotti was there. Qatar can give him all the money but will he enjoy that football level? I really doubt it. I actually now wonder what's his impression of Ancelotti now that he kinda ditched him. I think Everton could have made still a great use of him but they rather chose to sell him out in order to save his wages. Still Everton have made some great transfers like Gray and Townsend.
Most of the South Americans just chasing huge amount of money, when I think about this the player that comes across my mind is Oscar of Chelsea football club,such promising,full of talent and an exciting player ended up playing full-time in the Chinese league.
It's nothing but the cash of money, I ain't seeing no passion from him no more.
