Yep. I saw the clip, he was clearly injured yet tweeted after the game it was “fatigue”. Right..
That tells you everything you know, when a player pretends he isn't injured but can't escape reality. It's really really sad actually because I think he is a super talented player with bags of potential. If not for his injuries he might have ironed out his mistakes, and honestly I do think he has become less rash and calmer on the ball. It's just sad, but we can't afford to sell him as he is our only CB with pace beside Tuanzebe and Mengi.

Complete waste of space.

When he’s not injured, he’s charging around like a mad man, waiting to get injured.

Honestly had no idea he's back from injury and has actually been on the bench in recent weeks. Just assumed he was injured :lol:

Another injury set back. Minor according to Ole.

He was never the same after his ankle surgery. Completely different player since, and a crock on top.

He’s a disaster waiting to happen. Hope he’s at RB - firstly it’s less dangerous, and secondly Tuanzebe deserves and needs the minutes at CB rather than him.

Last time he played RB was against PSG and it was the worst performance I’ve seen since the Djemba-Djemba days

Absolutely top class today.

showed why he is an important part of the team with his calm passing and supreme pace, we were in trouble with calvert Lewin but he just swept in and took command. Lovely stuff.

Thought he had a really nice game. One tackle stands out for me in the second half where he won the ball back close to our box after we lost it on the halfway line.

The last time he had a good game in the LC Ole got excited and put him in against Spurs and we shipped 6 goals... he's was good tonight but let's not get any ideas of him v Vardy :nervous:

Bailly’s six monthly reminder that he’s actually a pretty good centre half with lots going for him.

We know what’s coming next. Rinse and repeat.

We got the Beckenbauer version of Bailly today. It’s like flipping a coin before the game with this guy.

Good performance - bar his normal lapse of stupidity resulting in the reckless challenge on Richarlison.

Love this guy and if it isn't him, you can see how that type of defender upgrades our defence.....

Madman.

Counting down the time before the next injury.

Shame really, if he could play 90 minutes 15 games in a row we just might actually see a good partnership forming.

Complements Harry with his aggresiveness and covering.

Saved Maguire once with his pace. Highlights how useful it really is to have one centre back with pace. Though I suspect it will be someone new, as oppose to Bailly. Did well tonight.

He looks 50% faster in anything he does than Lindelof, and 100% faster than Maguire. Sadly he can't head the ball but actually in that kind of game when we expect to dominate the game and just need to be careful with counters, he is a decent option.

Think he was good and looked pretty solid most of the time.

That’s his good performance over and done with. Next game he’ll gift a few goals and get sent off.

Played pretty well. But you know the next mistake or injury is only around the corner. Did what you’d want a cup player to do.
