Reece James has sent Wilfried Zaha a cryptic dig following Chelsea's 2-1 win over Crystal Palace. The 22-year-old defender, who was up against the Ivorian for much of the clash, played a pivotal role in Graham Potter picking up his first win as Blues boss.
The Cobham graduate suppressed the winger so much so that Patrick Vieira decided to switch Zaha to right-wing in order to escape James' grasp. But, even after running from the England international, he found little to no joy when up against Ben Chilwell.
And, after the bout, James took to Twitter with a customary post-match tweet. The Chelsea defender posted an image of himself fending off Zaha and captioned it with a padlock emoji, playing up to the discussion and widespread memes shared among fans on social media.
