Leon Bailey (out on loan to AS Roma)

Bit more internet noise today about him going to Saudi Arabia.

I think he's done OK. If we can get a fee this summer, it likely gives us more wiggle room to kick on further given FFP.

£30m fee over 5 years wasn't it? So £30m from the Saudis, £12m in the profit column with the amortisation and we might be able to add a Doku, now JPB looks worth a shot.

Doku isn't the only one. The links for Juventus' 19 year old, English player have started up again in the past few days - https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/samuel-iling-junior/profil/spieler/581672.

I think he'd be one for the next couple of years rather than now, similar profile to Duran. Supposed to be a great prospect though.

Can we end the Leon Bailey Experience. Slowest “pacy winger” I have ever seen and offers very little anywhere on the pitch.

[Risso]

He’s absolutely incapable of beating a man and his first touch is like a trampoline.

Lol! Perfect simile!

Altogether now, "Bye bye Bailey, Bailey Bye Bye"

Offers pretty much nothing, really hasn't worked out for him here.

Philogene when he came on, for example, had ten times the work rate, before you even get on to technical skill.

I fancy him to win the Ballon d'Or.

I fancy him to win the exit door.

Thought Diaby was bought to play out wide, but looks more likely that he will play in the 'number 10' role.  Therefore, wouldn't be surprised if we are in for another wide player.

I think Brennan Johnson will be coming in and Leon departing

[PaulWinch again]

Excellent, incisive, display. Well done Leon.

Credit where its due, and I groaned when I saw him win the starting 11. But he was great today
