It's Your Round Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 It was decent cameo but his introduction did seem to leave Cash a lot more exposed. Bailey doesn’t quite bust his guts to get back as much as Ings did in the first half. He’s a real danger going forward though, I hope we get to see him hit form at some point this season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaVilla Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 i would like to see a front 3 of Coutinho, Buendia and Bailey. Not sure if it would work, but would like to see it at least once, regardless. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichW Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Good cameo today but unless there’s any injuries don’t think he will get a look in with the first 11. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey looked lively enough but his defensive game is lacking, it was a worry when Ings went off as he was working so hard. I agree he left Cash exposed a couple of times and then they scored. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbcuk Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 Looked good when he came on, would love to see him start against Arsenal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will need to look at it again but I actually thought Rice clipped him, could've easily got a free kick for that but then the ref was awful and didn't call many obvious fouls for us in first half.

The DM or one of the two central midfielders infront of the DM is supposed to help defend in those counter attack situations. Not really fair to blame Bailey in that situation as he had been fouled at the start of the counter! Bailey is looking sharper now. He was definitely better then Buendia. Pushing for a place soon i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakemineVanilla Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I was disappointed that he lost possession, which led to their second goal. It looked like a foul but the referee was playing Australian rules. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been a thing over the last 6-8 games, players can be barged, pushed, elbowed and dragged off the ball and your chances of a free kick are slim to none. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol It has been my impression that he is avoiding sprinting on full power, to avoid getting another muscle tear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well this is my point, the three behind the striker are elite, we need to set them free and play one striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villa_Vids Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 He needs to be a lot more aware for the second goal, we were out of shape and vulnerable to the counter. Sloppy decision. Other than that he showed some good glimpses going forward and his work rate was very high. Hopefully he will find some form in the coming games.

Delphinho123 Posted March 13, 2022 Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think he deserves a start from the right with Coutinho playing off the left. Or, Buendia on the left and Coutinho as the 10. About time we see what this kid is about. He has the tools, I’ve said it before, but he needs a run of 5 matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I thought he was impressive. For me he should start next league game for watkins. Done more in 10 minutes than watkins did whole game 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Done more in 10 minutes than watkins did whole game If you do that then you have 2 players in Ings and Bailey who can't complete 90 minutes. Hindsight and all but voting against 5 subs was probably not in our best interest this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCU Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I know he was number 9 for Leverkusen but did he ever play down the middle? I'm slightly worried he's going to fall out of favour here and that's nothing against him. We're spoilt for choice in the attacking area now and I feel the pressure will really be on him to impress when he gets the odd 20 minutes here and there. I think he's a quality player and we really need to try and adjust squeezing him in somewhere otherwise he'll be off. I know he's been injured lately but looked quite sharp when he came on yesterday.
