Tom13 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 2 hours ago, bannedfromHandV said: I can’t see Traore as a striker, he can’t hold a ball up, he’s not effective in the air, his first touch is hit and miss and I don’t think he’s a clinical finisher so I’m struggling to see how he’d cope playing up top, particularly in our system where all of the aforementioned traits are key. Nor me, but have you seen his record when playing up front? According to Transfermarkt he's scored 38 in 71 when playing up front! Lot of those in the Eredevisie though I guess.

Popular Post JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2021 (edited) Just watched highlights and profiling again. Mental how much Grealish Gate has overshadowed this. We've potentially got SOME player on our hands. The lad can do it ALL! Free kicks - check Pinpoint crossing/Asisting - check Striking - Check Breaking ankles - check Pace to burn - check Team player - check Gets to 99 for Aston Villa on FIFA career mode - CHECK!!!

Zatman Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Bailey will get more goals and assists combined than Jack next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb_82 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Excited for this one now, wonder if he will take the 10 shirt? I do think it may take him a few weeks to get up to speed so need to be patient Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will take some time to find their collective identity and establish chemistry. Fans will be eager but patience is paramount right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sharkyvilla Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 £25m sounds like a great deal. Can't wait to see him play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aston_Villan4 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Just saw the Dean Smith comments on Leon. He called him a striker. Anything to consider or just a mistake from Deano? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 This is a brilliant signing. Such a shame it has been overshadowed by all the Grealish stuff. Bailey I think will become a fan favourite, a guy that gets you off your seat. Welcome Leon, we are on the up, and you will be a big part of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to consider or just a mistake from Deano? A suggested on previous page, potentially an indication of a 4-3-3 formation with Watkins Bailey and Traore all playing free flowing forward roles. Or he's mistaken because the official site called him a winger. Not much to read into it I don't think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 I'm liking his dad . He said Villa can do what Liverscum did sell their best player buy 2/3 good players and they won the league. Seems Craig Butler knew or had an inkling that Jack was leaving. His surreal live streams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
