Vinicius and James, opposite poles

Valdebebas today will receive two footballers who birthday the same day being the two sides of the coin. Vinicius will blow a cake with 20 candles in the final leg of his confirmation season as future of the club; James, by cons, celebrates his 29 being almost a stranger in white dynamics. The coffee maker is fit to play but decided to own motu don't go summoned against Athletic and Alavés because he wants to look and feel outside of Chamartín. Nor is he expected in Los Cármenes.

Two almost opposite realities in which Zidane is having also different roles. TO Vini is giving minutes (1,699 ') while looking for how to make room for him and make him fit with Hazard despite the fact that both start from the same flank of the attack. TO James, Zizou rescued him by surprise at the Reale Arena (and as a starter) but the days have passed and that is too similar to what he has lived Bale, also almost unexpected starter against Mallorca and since then luxury statue on the bench. James, not even that. Last Friday, in the Di Stéfano stands, he accompanied the punished and injured (Ramos, Carvajal, Marcelo and Nacho). A civilian footballer.

The Colombian does not seem very affected either. Yesterday he uploaded a photo to his social networks to announce, smiling and in front of his pool, his impending birthday. More explicit joy, although he has lost the recent ownership in favor of his compatriot and friend Rodrygo, that of Vinicius. He is 20 years old and also two exact as a Madridista based on the entity's long-term plans. While James counts the days he has left in Valdebebas, from Vini Madrid waits years.
