Thug Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Whilst i don’t like what Gerrard is ‘trying’ to do.. this is completely out of order. Bailey has done very little to justify a starting place when he has been given the opportunity. If Gerrard drops Bailey from the squad because if this, I’d support that decision. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butler: why don't you play wingers or a system to use your better players Gerrard: Is it OK if I put you on hold and I will see if Bealey is available he knows more about the tactics thingy and stuff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t be though, would it? it would be a quality player exiled because he can’t control his dad/agent If Butler can’t maintain his professionalism, Bailey needs a new agent.

Jareth Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 It all points to a mindset whereby Villa is just Baileys vehicle - there may be truth in that but no one is bigger than the club and his pops needs to STFU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Bailey saw us as a stepping stone when he arrived but he hasn't justified his price/reputation yet. I'd sell him for the right price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

End of. You can't drop Bailey because his dad/agent has said something he doesn't like. He wants to play, he's got a contract with the club, if he's fit and suited to the gameplay then play him. If we start dropping players every time someone close to the player moans about x, y or z then we'd be playing the U21s soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s just no point getting worked up about it. Charlie Kane spent all last summer slagging off Spurs and trying to get Harry a move. Spurs didn’t drop Harry, and Harry didn’t cut his ties with his brother. It’s background noise at a professional level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfc1982am Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Some seriously weird posts lately, non more so than those now blaming Leon for the rantings of his old man. Who cares what his old mans says, especially as he is known to chat a little shit, like we all do from time to time. Drama, drama drama The flip side of the argument is that he isn't wrong either. We brought him in in to play wide and now don't play wide. Pretty stupid tbh. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
