Only Watkins is greedier as a player. Having said that, I’m desperate for him to succeed.

Wainy316 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 1 goal and 3 assists is a pretty good return from his very limited playing time so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woody1000 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Leon Bailey has had a pretty stop/start beginning to his Aston Villa career, due to a short pre-season and injury. Let’s not start putting it down to casual/not so casual racist reasons yeah guys? Edited February 7, 2022 by Woody1000 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, it's a well known fact* that Jamaicans sit around smoking weed and drinking rum while listening to Buffalo Soldier on repeat. *Fact mentioned above is based on stereotypes and vibes.

Steero113 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Some sort of picture of him actually doing something on the training ground would be nice. Feels like 2009 the last time I saw him in any official posts or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 It's clearly been too long since Villa have played a game if a player that's been injured for 2 months is now the subject of moaning. Throwing parties and clubbing 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skarroki Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I know to some it won't matter but putting aside his time at Villa this season, he's been a very good player for a long time in Leverkusen and many outside of the club considered us a step down from where he could have potentially gone. Also I wouldn't consider him injury prone, he's just had a pretty unlucky 6 months. Luckily we're now in a much better position as a club because 2 years ago someone of his quality being ruled out for this length of time would have completely ruined our season and he'd have been starting games before the medical team recommended it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thunderball Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 He's hardly figured but in that time he's played well and played poorly on occasions, mirroring the team as a whole. He clearly has talent, the test is whether he is intelligent enough take on board his role in the team. I would guess he is, or he will start to look pretty silly pretty quickly if Buendia, Watkins/Ings, Coutinho, McGinn and Ramsey are standing around with their hands on their hips while he runs around beating his man several times, runs into dead ends and shooting into the stands. I think give him until the end of this season before we start to fret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digne headed his corner past Begovic(who is shite, just ask any Bournemouth fan). Then Ings picked him out with miracle ball for 1 on 1 with keeper from distance. It was flat track bully good based on above factors Is that meant to substantiate that he was garbage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCJonah Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I'm more excited about Leon Bailey's potential than anyone else in the squad. I think there's a superstar there. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not be so sure, apparently Ings is very excited about Bailey's potential too as he feels that the two of them will work well together and it will help him to push Ollie to the bench Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
