I thought he was poor. He did his defensive duties though.

I didn’t think he was poor but maybe like you I’m not convinced he will be a more than just alright
same for Malen, same for Bogarde

Sorry I wish I could be more positive but I’m just not seeing it right now

I think he's starting to adapt to the Premier League which is very unforgiving. Plus having to get used to Emery's style and tactics - Harvey Elliot is still adapting and not a regular starter yet.

Honestly think he has done fine so far other than the Palace game.

He is getting better but hasn't got stamina but a player in the making I think.

I appreciated his work rate, but he’s a step down from Bailey (based on what I’ve seen so far). TBF we’ve had a fair few players playing below their standard this season, so there’s hope.

I still think he will be more useful centrally but whether we will see that ?

The problem is, when Bailey was playing at his highest level, I don’t think there was a better winger in the world at that time. He was incredible for just over half the season. To find a player as good as he was at that point in time would be extremely hard.

He cost half a Diaby, and at first glance, has impressed me half as much as Diaby did. Hoping he goes on to be a full Diaby at half price.

Early days yet. I think you can see that his main problem at the moment is getting used to the speed of thought needed, and the physicality.

He starting to look better with each game he plays.
