nepal_villan Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Really surprised how quickly he contributed. A livewire. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiney Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I think he will prove to be a very astute signing, it was as an impressive debut as I can remember seeing from a Villa player especially given he has only been with the squad a couple of days and hasn't had a preseason. I understand he prefers to play on the right side though and this is his strongest position, as it is with Traore and Buendia. I'm a big believe in round pegs in round holes so it will interesting to see how Smith puts them all into our system - as it stands we have a big Jack Grealish sized gap on the left-hand side and no one that plays that role as their first choice. Will Bailey be used primarily on the left? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 An assist on debut when not fully match fit will do his confidence no harm. Think he will be our left winger this and excel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Bailey really is 2 players in 1. On the left he plays alot like Sancho on the right . On the right he plays like Robben. And i am not embarrassed to use those comparisons because if you delve deep into Bailey in Youbtube you will see Bundesliga tv use these. He will score more on the right but will be hugely creative on the left . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sulberto21 Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Bloody Danny Ings putting his face in where it hurts. Get out of the way man! Also Ollie after seeing those crosses : 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 I just love it when you see a player on his debut and you can just see directly what a player he is, oozed confidence and class, you could see how the opponents backed off and had repect for him straight away. Give him space to the left and he will be leathal for us. Very promising! A bit strange though that he didn't check with Ings how he was after shooting him down and Ings clearly was in pain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Ollie after seeing those crosses : Yes his crossing and unselfish play was great Bailey has the ability to beat his man but has a more disciplined approach to Traore, having both on the pitch we looked much better.

I were listening to that Holy Trinity show and he explained the Leon Bailey of now at the age he is, then you take Jack back to Leon's age and the stats show that Bailey is the better player. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be okay with this guy taking Jack's place, he will more than fit the emptyness and teams will regret letting us sign Leon. What made me laugh on twitter the other day was some Arsenal fan saying Villa buying all those players won't replace Jack. Now I know that to be true because we only need Bailey and the shoes are filled, the rest is a bonus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jareth Posted August 15, 2021 VT Supporter Share Posted August 15, 2021 If that's what we get after umpteen days in quarantine and one single day training with the team - I'd hate to see what we'll get next match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
