When he plays on the right, he's always cutting back. I’ve thought he looked better down the left, his assist for Mcginn against Watford when we lost 3-2 was great. I don’t think he’s going to be effective on the right he’s got too much work to do to use his left foot and his right foots non existent 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Segundo Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I said during the Wolves game he's easy to defend against because most time defenders just show him onto his right foot and can mostly safely predict he will try to cut back inside to use his left. I also noticed his only decent ball in against Wolves, and his only two decent crosses yesterday were of his right foot when he went down the line. So he can use it, he either doesn''t trust it or has orders to cut inside all the time. The frequent air shots betray a man who is lacking composure and confidence.

Not defending him but it's clear we need players who can provide width, fed up of seeing Digne, Cash doing tit all with crosses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first thought is always a pass into the centre or backwards. And at times he stalls so much with forward runs that we don’t trouble teams. Last night was like watching Gerrards team again, we need some signings. I would like to see Bailey on the left too though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bailey and sancho have both struggled since their moves to England for different reasons, I just don’t think baileys suited to the premier league Half his goal contributions have came in 2 games, one Bayern won 7-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you're right, he is crap at cutting inside, his best performances have come when he has played as an orthodox left winger. It's pretty rare these days for a wide player to be so poor at cutting inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also lacks composure. Fans love his attitude, which is unquestionable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he's great or anything, he should be replaced eventually. But he did contribute with some energy and pace going forward which is now lost. He won't win any prices next season as the more reluctant Cash, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AshVilla Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 After watching his performance yesterday, calming down and sleeping on it I still don't think he's an upgrade on Nzogbia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david-avfc Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 I think there’s a talented player in there somewhere, he has great control and is prepared to get on the ball and drive forwards where possible. Problem is he looks like a guy who will always blow hot and cold, and when you’ve only got 1 winger in the squad and he’s out of form it really shows. At the moment he looks down on confidence and is struggling to do some of the basics right, we really need to buy at least 1 winger this window to relieve the pressure on him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted January 9, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted January 9, 2023 11 hours ago, gwi1890 said: The amount of times he takes a man on and they get a touch on the ball is staggering, he doesn’t pass and move but it was the correct decision to start him tonight in a attempt to build his confidence. Emery clearly seen something in him and we’ve all seen glimpses I really hope he turns things around. That's got to be the most underwhelming compilation of an 'exciting' attacking player I've ever seen. He barely does anything in it. There's 1 decent break where somehow the defender catches him up within seconds when he clear ground to sprint into, one good cross, one good pass to switch play, one nice trick to go past the defender who is committed to the tackle, and the rest of it is ultimately futile going nowhere touches which mostly show he can't control the ball very well. And then you remember that this highlight reel is him playing against a team the better part of 60 league positions below our level. Tragic.

Delphinho123 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 He's just a slightly quicker version than Traore. Both aren't good enough but I'll tell you something right now, Traore never put in as consistently poor performances as Bailey has this season. There really isn't much between the players. We need 3 new wide players over the next two windows. I'd get rid of Buendia, Coutinho and Bailey if at all possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baileys supposed to have more pace but I’d have more confidence in Traore beating a man. I’m actually keen to see what Emery thinks of him in the summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
