Are you seriously asking me to list wingers who frequently outperform Leon Bailey? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All would be an immediate upgrade from his average performance even if they can't get to his thrice a season 10/10 moments. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know too much about the players you mention, but was impressed by Sulemana this weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomaszk Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 He's been a shambles recently. Really has. Not sure what's up. If Kaden Young played like Bailey the last month I'd be saying get him out of the first team and back to youth football to protect him... clearly isn't ready.

There are only 20 clubs in the league and probably only a handful of teams near our level to pick players from. So please list them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think nobody would trade any player in our squad for those. Gnonto has a bit of talent. Harrison has had his chances and isn't at a level good enough for us.

That is a tad irrelevant in many respects - Bailey is not good enough irrespective of who else is or isn’t good enough either 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerville should definitely be on your radar, he looks very useful. The others, meh. It’s hard with wingers unless you watch 90 mins of football week in week out, because usually all you see is the moments where they skin a full back and do something decent. I imagine a lot of non Villa fans think Bailey is one of our star players. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesterDad Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 We don’t need to look anywhere for a winger who is better than Bailey - he is sat on the bench ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom13 Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 Traore is somewhere inbetween a winger and a wide playmaker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted March 6, 2023 Share Posted March 6, 2023 (edited) Bailey is really struggling tbh. He did well for the McGinn chance but generally his play is way to inconsistent. A wide forward will be a priority in the summer. Edited March 6, 2023 by Vive_La_Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did something for that chance that he rarely dose, he took his man on , on the outside. He is normally predictable, cuts in on his good foot nearly every time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
