“It’s always great for other players to come in, I don’t take it as something to be down about – I take it as a challenge,'” James said.
“There’s always going to be challenging moments here because we’ve got unbelievable players in the position I play and it helps me, it drives me on.
“I don’t take that as a bad thing, at the moment it’s about giving the manager a headache, I think that’s what he wants, to be able to have a selection of players and not make it easy for him.
“I’d like to think I’ve done that from things he says every day that he’s got a [selection] headache and I’ve got to keep giving him that.”
