Creative impact in draw

James had four crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Tuesday's 0-0 draw versus Ghana.

Analysis: James had plenty of chances to move forward from a right-back spot, but none of his cross attempts led to a goal Tuesday. While he wasn't busy defensively, he improved on his attacking numbers from the initial game, boosting his tallies to two chances created and five crosses across 180 minutes of play. He could remain valuable in future contests given his consistent playing time and offensive upside.

Register's 90 minutes Wednesday

James recorded one shot, a cross and three clearances in Wednesday's 4-2 win over Croatia.

Analysis: James was on the field for the entire 90 minutes Wednesday as he played a right-back and defensive midfielder role for the squad, not moving up to the later unitl Djed Spence was brought on in the second half. He would see some two-way play, but was nowhere near a crucial factor for the team. He should maintain a starting spot in the squad as they move forward.
