He is injury prone and woefully short of fitness (understandably) if he ever does get back. If he is going to rip anything, it will be his thigh / groin / hamstring / calf or whatever ! Its almost like people have seen him play outside of Villa and think this is a perfect game for him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will come as a surprise I'm sure but contrary to popular belief, Bailey had actually played football before his transfer to Villa. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRO Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 We cannot allow Leeds to just run at us...with Raphinha, Harrison and James.....They have enough runners to cause us problems, if they go unchecked. We have enough to cause them problems too, but if we lose the ball too easily, in doing so, we could come unstuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have enough to cause them problems too, but if we lose the ball too easily, in doing so, we could come unstuck. Just need to dominate them in midfield, any combination we have is miles better than Klich and Adam Foreshaw or whatever they're putting out in absence of Kalvin Phillips. Interested what Bielsa will do to try to counter Buendia-Coutinho axis just off the CF as we will get loads of space there if they play three at the back. This will be high scoring game for sure, last year at VP we had plenty of chances at 0-0 before their quickfire goals killed the game so just need to go ahead and think we'll win comfortably.

Certainly neither will start but I suppose one or both could make the bench at best. Very doubtful though I’d say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, if they are only returning to light training this week then I would say there would very little if any chance of even the bench. Rushing back a Hammy injury and after surgery would be really high risk. I suspect the reports that they are both out till March is probably more realistic 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted February 3, 2022 Moderator Share Posted February 3, 2022 Leeds will do their thing where they try to turn it into a basketball game. For me, I think if we keep the ball and play sensibly, we can win. If we end up in a basketball game, i think we can win that too. I think the current line up we have, with Coutinho getting sharper and everyone settling into the system, we look a very decent side. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the OP wanted to know where to get some food for his family and I was suggesting that the City Centre had a better choice..
