June 2 News Recently, James talked about the topic of youth training in his program "Mind the Game".

James said: "A lot of the problems stem from social media. In the United States, many coaches and trainers participate in their children's lives. They actually want to be more famous than their children and think they are more important than the children they are trained. Their motivation is not pure - they want to be photographed, recognized, and interviewed by the media, such as 'I trained Luca for two summers, and he broke out afterward', and then they want to be interviewed. This should not be the real purpose. The real purpose is to help the child improve, help him understand the game from a new perspective, rather than make himself famous. This has also changed a lot of the status quo and made the child lose his pure love for the game."
