I don't think it's just about starting, it's how he's being used that's the issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We paid 30m for him he's constantly injured he hasn't performed and he's not in the team and his agent is causing issues for the club and now a club has fallen into our lap potentially who want to take him off our hands. If and if it is a big if , they offered what we paid you're damn right I'd cut and run and so should the club. He can't stay fit and his value is only going to deflate.

sidcow Posted August 29, 2022 VT Supporter Share Posted August 29, 2022 I'd just like to see him get a run of games so he's doesn't feel pressure to do something amazing in the short cameos when he gets on the pitch, which is usually at a time when we're chasing the game. Just a settled starting run and see what he can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is stupid because you don’t realise that it doesn’t matter what he is worth, it is what somebody is willing to pay. Thats why Ajax are sat on £80m now and Leicester are soon to be £75m richer.

He’s really only had one issue, a major one at that, with his leg which seems to be fine now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footienomics mate Leicester are selling one of the highest rated defenders in Europe to one of the richest clubs in Europe in the richest league in Europe. We would be selling someone who can't get a game for Villa is not going to a powerhouse team and isn't really desirable based on lack of performance and serious question marks on his ability and fitness.

Tyreik Wright is the only other one we have at the club now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rightdm00 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 When he's played it's out of position. Can't go out near the wing because that's where our CM and FB have to be. Can't play in his favored spot because the manager is dead set on playing his mate Coutinho. If I was Bailey's dad I would be kicking up a storm as well over the mismanagement currently ongoing at Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Trez Traore el Ghazi Philogene on loan. No way we sell him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) Nothing in the Dutch press indicates Bailey wants to leave. Here's the relevant line "Justin Kluivert is gepolst, de naam van de door PSV begeerde Anwar El Ghazi is gevallen en zelfs Leon Bailey (Aston Villa) kwam ter sprake." Loosely translates to "Justin Kluivert has been polled, the name of the PSV coveted Anwar El Ghazi has been mentioned and even Leon Bailey (Aston Villa) was mentioned."

abdomlahor Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Sounds like Ajax are re-signing signing Ziyech anyways, likely ending their interest in him you would think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) The situation with Bailey is due to the knock on effect of the playmaker. The issue is that Gerrard looks at coutinho as a playmaker. He isnt any more. He doesnt even have magic moments . But He makes the choice between Buendia and Coutinho every week. When he should be making the choice of Bailey or Coutinho to play with Buendia. If you make that decision then you can more simply see who is better and more in form. And also which of Coutinho / Bailey benefit more when Buendia is playing. Buendia is the master of the throughball. Bailey is a fantastic finisher and is the fastest player at the club Hello !!!!! But because of this stupid system he plays it means you end up with only 1 of those 3 on the pitch alot of the time rather than at least 2. Its madness and blindness of the highest degree and is going to get him sacked eventually while making 2 really high quality players unhappy Edited August 29, 2022 by MWARLEY2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2022 (edited) I genuinely think it's Butler who's planted these seeds. Not necessarily to force a move, but to give SG the nudge towards the door as well as get Leon more minutes. Bailey isn't a prick at all. As a matter of fact, I did post a couple weeks ago that Butler says it was his job to be the prick as Leon was too nice and humble.

Demitri_C Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 St max is played in the wing and look how he performs. Bailey is from the same mould olay him as a winger. Cant see bailey leaving by thurs we would have no time to get anyone in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ciggiesnbeer Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Leon and his dad can STFU. Not the time for their tantrums. You will have a new manager soon enough now shut up, take your money and play your best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
