We couldn't find a single, obtainable target who's better than this dog shit footballer?

He needs to be removed from the starting eleven and also from the song about Emery. I know his name has two syllables but 'with Konsa at the back and Bailey in attack', we won't be going up the Premier League or into the Europa League.

I don’t think he’ll be a Villa player next season. Probably needs to go abroad and play again.

Too much has to go right for him to have a good game.

Struggles with the physicality of it.  Has ability but don’t think we’ll ever see enough of

It's not even hard to think of a potential other two syllable surname striker in our squad to use instead, either.

A waste of money, a waste of a starting place a total waste of space.
Somehow they have got to try and recover some of the crazy money we have paid for this idiot.

To take a comment from another thread, Villa needs players who can consistently turn in a 7-8 out of 10 performance. Bailey ain't going to be doing that any time soon; if ever.
[As Paul_e says above, he's better on the left, and Emery seems to - once again - have stuck him on the right. Whatever,] but unless he can show consistent contribution to the team he's not going to make it here. IMHO.
I hate dragging up previous posts, but he has never impressed me and continues not to.

He has ability, but he's physically not up it in this league. Gets out muscled continuously, loses the ball more often than not, decision making & first touch is questionable. Emery will see what we do.

Sell him asap.  In the meantime just put a statement out saying he's injured

Well he has Everton away today. I do think he gets maltreated by opposition players and today is going to be more of the same.
He's had his rotation having been rested to the bench for the last game.
Lets be looking to debate on if he should have started this match and played come his and team performance.
Good Wishes Leon!
