Let’s be honest I can’t recall him ever playing two games in a week so no surprise not playing today. Our defensive record was very good last year we need to remember that. We missed matic last week I think
Did you watch the last game Bailly played VS Brighton? Legitimately the worst defensive performance I've seen from a United player since like 2008Needs to start until one of his body parts falls off again.
Maguire is clearly a better player and can stay fit. I’m not a fan of Bailly, but pleased if he can keep fit and string some matches together. he’s a better partner than Lindelof if he can cut out the rashness and add consistency to his game. Good performance.Best CB at the club
He’s not. Let alone clearly.Maguire is clearly a better player and can stay fit.
It’s not similar at all, and if you can’t see how much better he was than Lindelöf today I don’t know what to tell you.It’s a bit similar to how people evaluated AWB half a year ago. Bailly did the same job as every one else in the defence, but with one or two more spectacular tackles and suddenly he is superior to everybody else and the best defender at the club. (We played Brighton B-team)
He is. Put perhaps I need to caveat every post with “in my opinion”.He’s not. Let alone clearly.
Maguire is nothing but a high transfer fee. He’s not faster than Bailly, he’s not stronger than Bailly, he’s not better than Bailly on the ball. He’s not commanding. He’s not aggressive. He doesn’t inspire nor does he I still fear in the opposition. He’s better than Bailly in the air though.
I’m not even sure Maguire is better than Lindelof to be honest
You can’t really compare them. Maguire played every PL game last year and we got a good defensive result. Bailly has played a handful of games against weak teams. Hardly enough to say Bailly is a better defender than Maguire.He’s not. Let alone clearly.

I don’t think he has a blind spot when it comes to Lindelof. Tuanzebe was in line to partner Maguire at the start of last season at the expense of Lindelof.Bailly was very good again tonight. IMO there's not much more he can do to show he should be starting.
Will it sway Solskjaer? God knows. Its sad but Ole has a blindspot where Bailly is concerned. Its as clear as day that he's not only better than Lindelof but also better suited to partnering Maguire than Lindelof. However, for some reason, Ole just doesn't trust him.
We need Bailly's pace against Spurs, Son may be out but Lucas and Bergwijn ain't slow. Hopefully Ole sees that or else we could get done on the counter.
You’re a Lindelof fan so I purposely ignore your posts. I’m merely replying to this to say my opinion has been consistent on the matter and not a “suddenly” thing.It’s a bit similar to how people evaluated AWB half a year ago.

Better than Lindelof having a mare every game.Bailly’s a bit of an odd one in that he can look so assured and solid one game, then have a complete mare the next.
