"He’s a great player and I’m delighted he’s with us."

Of his own form and fitness, James also said: "This season I feel I have come on leaps and bounds, playing on a consistent basis and getting selected for England again.

"I’m feeling strong and, for sure, I’m moving in the right direction. I finished off the season strongly, and I feel like I’m in a good place."
