We aren't winning that game in that style with those types of players on the pitch imo. I love the tenacity of our midfield and forward line, but I guess there is a place for other options and there's no reason unai can't improve the performances of them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 The club have been showing highlights of Emerys first game against Man U, in prelude to tomorrows. It reminded me that the notion that this kid never contributes anything or is totally useless seem a little farcical. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermon Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 Yeah was watching all our goals since Emery took charge, he certainly has been involved in the goals. I think what people remember from Bailey unfortunately is his unsuccessful dribbles or 1v1 that come of nothing. He needs to be calmer in the final third, there's many times you can see he has only one thing in his mind and that is to shoot but usually goes off target. Needs to go back to basics and keep it simple, to be fair though whenever he does get the ball on the right there is always that feeling he might do some magic. Hard one with Bailey, really wanted him to come good but think we will have to upgrade him. Think he has a part to play though in the final run in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 I'm excited for his return. He is a player but the lack of confidence in his game was killing him. If we are pushing on for the very top level there isn't any room for passengers, he either needs to step up or get off. Maybe his new role will be a super sub against tired legs. One thing he needs tonwork on is quick player always struggle with over hitting balls, just needs to compose himself in those instances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I very rarely under the decision he makes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwi1890 Posted April 29, 2023 Share Posted April 29, 2023 The fact that Emery has started him more often than not when fit suggests he trusts him tactically more than Traore. This is not a dig at Traore in any way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juanpablosaliceband Posted May 6, 2023 Share Posted May 6, 2023 I know he’s only back from injury but that performance was borderline disgraceful for a premier league footballer. Couldn’t even manage a simple 1-2 with Martinez and then kicks it over the sideline. Messed up at least three other simple passes. Id release him on a free if we can’t find a buyer.

Ironic I don't see you or others in the Traore or Buendia thread today. I'm actually not even being biased right now, I watched the same game, and I genuinely don't see what he did that was so terrible. lol However, I knew this was inevitable... he's been selected When he is garbage, I actually say it. This is pathetic Edited May 6, 2023 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
