The rope has tightened so much that it could be about to split. This past Tuesday, against the Manchester City in the gone of semifinals of the UEFA Champions League, Zinedine Zidane decided not giving minutes to James Rodríguez and leave him all the party in the bench, although it did not effect the three changes on the terrain of game.

The French technician did not want to risk with the Colombian midfield player, that undoubtedly is not in his best state of possible form, and to the one who seems to have forgotten completely in this final stretch of the season. It suffices with observing that, in the three last parties of the Real Madrid in UEFA Champions League, James so only has contested a total of 6 minutes of game.

Figures paupérrimas for a player that the past campaign was of the best of the Real Madrid to the orders of Carlo Ancelotti, but that now has diluted like an azucarillo, until the point that it can do the cases this next summer.

Zidane follows without trusting James Rodríguez and against the Manchester City preferred to bet by two players that are working more than the Colombian in the trainings, Jesé Rodríguez and Lucas Vázquez. Not even without Cristiano Ronaldo and without Benzema decided Zidane give an opportunity to James, and this could cause that the Colombian explode to the term of the present season.

In League, James has contested so only 25 minutes in the two last meetings, what could mean a possible intention of the Real Madrid of traspasarle when it finish the course and recover, if it can, part of the 80 million euros that spent does two summers in the contracting of the Colombian. Several clubs of the Premier League would be interested.
