Mate, what's with the agenda? You write consecutive comments saying the same things, answered the same post twice and all that just to slander Bailly. We got it, you really really don't like the guy.
I just reply to a post. I just think his confidence is shot. And I have nothing against him. I thought he was good when he first arrived

I mean I think this quote sums up a lot.

I’d love to know your views on current American politics.
American politics or reality TV? American politics are a joke, and Canadian politics are becoming the same way. My view is celebrities shouldn't be political leaders. Especially racist ones...

What’s the point in Eric Bailly being kept?

His contracts up in the summer, let him go. Can’t be relied upon at all.

They just need to cut their losses with Bailly & sell him to anyone who offers.
Get the wage off the book & a small fee, write it off as a poor transfer & move on.

Right, enough is enough.
Once Bailly recovers, we do NOT play him a single game either reserves or full team. He's transfer listed in January and sold for the most we can get, probably around £20m.

Otherwise, we'll still have him here in 2022 and he'll still be spending half a season injured and underwhelming when he does play. It's far overdue that this club starts acting ruthlessly with passengers, Phil Jones should have been sold several years ago during one of his rare injury-free periods. Instead, we stick him back in the team and loe and behold, injured again.

Keep dreaming.

He is going to sign a new contract instead.

Please for the love of all things good release him while he still holds some value.

Last thing you want, but thank goodness a more medium job than it could have been.

Weird how he always gets injured when it looks like he will be sold

Yes I did. I had a scope done. I tore my maniscus
I've torn my meniscus and ACL in the same incident. And my meniscus hurt (ached) more than the ACL did.

You can completely rupture your ACL and not feel much, if anything, because a complete ruptures instantly kills all the nerves in the area. You may even be able to keep moving.

If there's a partial tear then it will hurt a whole lot more, given the nerve endings aren't torn all the way through.

A tear to your Meniscus is likely to cause more pain than a complete ACL rupture - one for the reason I've pointed out above, and also because the Meniscus is the cushion in your knee so every step that you take it is being used. You could still end up being able to run in straight lines without an ACL reconstruction, though you'll have issues if you try to turn or move laterally.

An AFL player played out essentially a whole game without realizing he's torn his ACL. This is a far more physical sport than Soccer, so it's not as if it can't happen. Especially when adrenaline is pumping.

The problem is that he always seem to mysteriously get injured during a transfer window

Serves as much purpose in our squad as Jones but worse. Should just cut our losses.

Blimey, he's making a habit of this ey.

Anyone hazard a guess on when Bailly / Rojo / Jones are finally shipped out? Im'a hazard a guess at:


Bailly: This winter (Loan + Option)
Rojo: Summer 2020
Jones: When the sun swells to swallow the earth in its final transition towards becoming a red giant. Guesstimation, 7 billion years or so from now.

I disagree. Jones will be there for eternity.

Feck, that's about it I guess. A shame I hope he recovers and has a good career somewhere else when he moves on eventually.

How did he get injured so badly with that slip
He's made of glass. It's ridiculous at this point. He cannot stay fit for more than a month or two. He's borderline worse than Jones. I feel bad for him because that's the most frustrating thing as an athlete, to be on the sidelines with a serious injury. But the sad truth is that we won't miss him for a second, as he's been fecking hopeless for the last two years. We need to help him get fit, and then move him on immediately. His place in the squad has been definitively taken by Axel Tuanzebe, who looks superior in every conceivable way.

Time to call time on the guy or give him the season to truly strengthen his body. There’s no point him coming back in 6 months & being out again for 2/3 more. Bad luck plays it’s part but this is chronic.

It’s a shame as I rate him higher than most but he simply fails to put together a run of games.

Should be considered a 4th option going forward or let go.

It wasn’t a slip. It was a massive amount of force onto a hyper flexed knee. The perfect way to rip apart a meniscus. Usually torn like that when athletes feck up a squat and end up collapsing onto their flexed knees but Bailly is just a colossal idiot that has no control of his limbs

Should have been sold a month ago, with Rojo. They are both useless. Jones of course as well. Bailly had the most value, this seems gone now with his injury record.

Have to feel for him, but we have to let him go. Hope he can make a recover at another club.

Dislocated my knee, totally ripped ACL and both other major ligaments and damaged tendons in one accident playing football.

Limped about a bit that night and went to work (physical trade) next morning.

When I got home that night I was just dragging myself along the floor after it swelled up like a balloon.

Ended up with an operation, crutches for 8 weeks, 4 months off work and permanent scars and screws in my knee with a year of physio.

So it’s not always an instant screaming in pain in a crumpled heap situation.
