It was against Luton.
Likely needed some talking among the backline there. I get the feeling we don't do enough of that sometimes.That one in the first half where he had all the time in the world and he proceeded to head the ball sofly to an opponent. Funny guy!

I like bailly, but yes he is atrocious in the air. I still can’t understand how his awful heading technique hasn’t been coached out of him.So he’s equally as bad in the air as Lindelof but better at most other things?
That being said, he’s not half bad at using his neck to «head» the ball. If he could lesrn to keep his head up whilst jumping, he might be onto something.I like bailly, but yes he is atrocious in the air. I still can’t understand how his awful heading technique hasn’t been coached out of him.
I didn’t watch the game tonight, so can’t comment. If, and a big if, he can string some games together then, yes he deserves a go ahead of Lindelof.I know this isn't too quality opposition but it says something that he outplayed our 80million captain..
The guy deserves a long stint in our starting line up
He’s the most frustrating player we’ve signed. He has everything to be brilliant but just can’t get a run of games!It’s sad that he’s by far the best CB on the ball at the club. Start him until he inevitably gets hurt again please
Same. I genuinely might have to give the game a miss if Lindelof starts. Won't be able to control the rageNeeds to partner Maguire vs Brighton. I don't think I can handle another Lindelof disaster so soon.
What on earth are you talking about...He challenged 4 times and won 2...He doesn't tend to make clean contact but saying he is so weak that he doesn't challenge??Hard to evaluate when facing Luton, but think he did good for most parts. The big minus is his poor aerial game. He is so weak that most of the time he doesn’t even challenge.
There were occasions where he didn’t even challenge. Not saying it happened every time but the aerial game is one of his weaknesses.What on earth are you talking about...He challenged 4 times and won 2...He doesn't tend to make clean contact but saying he is so weak that he doesn't challenge??
He got 90 mins today. Worth a small celebration?The talent has always be been there, just his rashness and mainly his fitness. You can't have a CB who can't stay fit for long parts of the season.
Shame really, he's a good defender.
