Bailey naturally prefers the right but we are playing him left. Think Traore was only ever going to be a squad player this season but I'd start him at Southampton if he's available. Where we play Buendia is causing us all sorts of issues currently but Bailey is far more proven at top level so it's him starting every single time. I'd probably go El Ghazi-Watkins-Bailey for Southampton. No idea what to do with the midfield, hopefully Luiz is fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhan_Zhuang Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 @VillaChris I think Traore is great and I'd start him for sure if he's fit. Bailey seems to be playing left as Buendia is playing, yet most of the time Buendia seems to be getting pulled into the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 He wasn't good at all tonight, but he also seemed very frustrated and demotivated. There were a few occasions where he was aide open in space, screaming and waving for the ball, only for it to either be passed backwards, waywards, way over his head, or only after he was closed down and the space was gone . The type of football we have been playing recently, will be a total waste of players like him and Danny Ings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerCollins29 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Very poor tonight but moments where he was free on the left and matt targett passed it out of play when it was easier to pass to bailey must be so frustrating for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 90% of his passes were Hause hoofs. No way for any attacker to thrive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny_Villaman84 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I think we need see Bailey in right side but today we didn't see much, hope next game he is play Right, and Watkin play left, Ings or Archer in centre position hopefully it is work well for counter attack, with good pace. I think we need Buendia or Ramsey for centre midfield for killer pass (prefer Ramsey) also Luiz is one of key to throught pass from deep that why we missing him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Clearly wasn’t fully fit, and the passes into him were awful. He’ll get better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think AEG will come in and start at Southampton as much to help out Targett as anything. Probably means Bailey moves to the right although perhaps we'll go radical and just have him playing off Ollie in 4-2-3-1. Not sure how that will work though. Also dropping Buendia again, not sure as feels like he'll totally down tools if we leave him out and he did provide the assist yesterday at least.

zenda Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 He was a little casual with the ball at times, cheaply giving away possession. Hopefully it's just him adapting to the PL as well as getting closer to peak fitness. Was he a little erratic/wayward in the Bundesliga? We got Bert for that role.

Not a popular opinion I know, but I really hope El Ghazi has a run of games now. Since he's been at the club, when AEG hits form and goes on one of his scoring runs Villa always seem to do well, as opposed to when SJM scores, and we lose.

wilko154 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Poor last night, but had very little to work with. For some reason we used Bailey as our out ball, with long balls being lumped forward to him constantly. He did well to control a few of them but had no help around him. I would rather see him on the right against Southampton, with El Ghazi on the left. Traore will hopefully be back soon to support. Buendia caused the side some problems last night as there was no width on the right hand side when he kept dropping into the 10 role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
