I would almost be tempted to sack off Bailey, bring on Duran and play 2 up front for the rest of the game.

We didnt do a lot wrong, we have a small squad - and have a 37 yo at right back against a top winger. 

other than that we look comfortable.  Im sure Unai will have noticed the same.  I think bringing off bailey and either going to 3 at the back or putting Dendonker in the middle and mcginn out wide

Were the better side, but they do have some very good players

2 games in 3.5 days is a lot for Young

He'll be feeling it by the Forest game and they'll have Brennan Johnson up against him so think we'll see a few changes for that, probably Chambers at RB I reckon.

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?

Look at all the managers who used to pick Heskey. Regularly. Baffling post 2001
Good job you’re not a manager.
He was world class at holding up the play.

Soo everyone had time to get back into position?

We are pretty much playing two up top from what I can see, granted Bailey is drifting to the right. It's the messing around with the midfield behind them to accommodate Bailey I most have a problem with.

Everytime we pass to Bailey we end up 20 yards further back than when we started, don't see what he offers at all.

Not sure how many more chances he deserves, he’s consistently underperforming and quite frankly is a bit shit most of the time.

The thing now us that we just know that he's been watching and analysing the first 45 mins and will have tweaks - positional or player wise to change things up.

Young is getting pressured by Barnes - Bailey either needs to wake up and cover back, or get subbed off and Duran comes on in a 4-4-2, or we bring  another midfielder on and go 4-3-2-1

Ramsey is supposed to be supporting Young, we are playing 4 4 2 with Bailey up front.

Luiz and McGinn are back to playing on top of each other again.
