Chelsea right back Reece James is a revelation.
I mean, we all knew he was good. But this good? This soon? In the PREMIER LEAGUE? It’s almost unheard of.
He’s spent the first half against Newcastle swinging in some absolutely brilliant crosses from the right, creating our best chances of the game.
Fans on Twitter can’t get enough of the youngster and his Beckham style delivery. He can defend, he can attack, he can do everything. We just need someone to get on the end of one of these.
One of them said his “potential is astronomical,” and even fans of other clubs are getting stuck in to hail their new king.
You can see some the reaction to his first half showing here:

Reece James has been the find of the season. What a player in the making. Mount should be benched for some time, he makes no sense. Azpi is the complete defender. 🙌 @ChelseaFC @reecejames_24 @CesarAzpi #NEWCHE #ChelseaFC #KTBFFH https://t.co/t7LFgBDQFr

Reece James is easily the best talent in this Chelsea team, it's not even an exaggeration. How can I right back get me this gassed, unbelievable player man

Reece James our RB is our most creative player in this game, that’s a huge problem, I’m not sure why Chelsea wasn’t all over Eriksen for £20m, Daniel Levy said he would sell to a rival and would have given us a creative edge that Mount simply doesn’t have in his locker.

Last season, Jorginho had so many potential assists bottled by his teammates and now this season, it's Reece James' turn. Quality chance after quality chance and yet no-one can finish off the chances Reece is creating.
Incredibly frustrating.

Personally our set pieces and corners have been terrible. If Reece James is our best crosser then he should be the one taking them. Half time & we don’t look like scoring. Need more in the 2nd half. #NEWCHE
