Bailey and Buendia will prove to be excellent additions once we get a proper manager and coaching staff in. Also bringing in that DM that we so fucking obviously should've got in the Summer will be a big factor aswell.

Last night he made Traore look like Alan Hutton. Shameful performance quite frankly.

We bought a dud.

Ridiculously early to be writing him off, even by Villa misery arse standards.

I wouldn't call him a dud just yet but last night was an insult to his team mates.

It was obvious Cash was trying to handle two of them on that side and Bailey did fuck all to support him.

I get that he's coming back from injury but that doesn't stop a player from looking like they give a shit.

He was embarrassingly bad last night. He either needs a new manager to get him going, or he'll probbly leave at the end of the season anyway.

Dud that is ridiculous

Its more the manager than the player.  You can see bailey has some unbelievable quality. Just the manager ia not good enough

Pretty obvious he’s been caught out by the pace and intensity of the Premier League and like others before him, he probably needs time to adjust.  Problem is we don’t have the time now

As I followed up -  the situation is what it is and he is firing duds so shouldn't be in the starting XI. As we found out with Traore last season, the Premier league game requires all players to do a little of everything, and playing Bailey does not serve the team well right now.
We'd be better off playing Bidace wide left or right: at least we'd get some energy.

I wouldn't write him off, as the lad clearly has talent. He's been shit so far though.

He wasn't shit against Everton or Chelsea. He's clearly unfit. Improved second half when he went up front.

Have to agree. We''ll see a much better player under the new manager.

He looked like a conference league reserve player last night.

We should be using him as an impact sub until he's got his fitness right. I think I would rather see Philogene-Bidace start right now.

He’s either unfit or not arsed, or most likely a bit of both. Shocking last night.
