Bailey has offered the square root of fuck all tonight.

They have one trick, get the ball to Barnes, stop him and we win this.

Leon Bailey is the only player that hasn't improved until Emery. His inability to retain possession in any way is astounding for a Premier League footballer.
Yest Mery picks him to start much more than the previous guy. Maybe something we don’t know?

Bailey does a thing that I used to do playing for the under-11s. Tries to beat one too many men and then makes a half-arsed attempt to poke the ball in the vague direction of a teammate in a 'look, I was going to pass to you all along' way. I was on 50p a week at the time.

Look at all the managers who used to pick Heskey. Regularly. Baffling post 2001

Offered nothing for 20 minutes, scored. Well on top, Leicester score.

Cliche but this second half can go either way I think.

Bailey is fucking dreadful, dismal player. Barnes has got the beating of Young time and time again, I’d probably put Moreno or Digne there.

Really shit goal to concede, why didn’t Konsa slide in and cut it out?

I think he wants Bailey to use his pace to stretch the opposition but we rarely see him do that. He was awful in the Home game against this lot but we are not blessed with loads of options.

Buendia not having the best half

His pass onto Ollie for the goal was insane!

What does Bailey actually do? Apart from create throw ins and lose possession?

Get Duran on

I'd go Traore - but the change has to be made. Leon just doesn't get it
