If he's not first choice why is that so important? He's available when we need him usually. You have to have squad players and you can't find them much better than Bailly.When he is fit and available....which has been hardly ever in the Five Years here.
Not really, given the fact that he rarely plays.Depends on the details but replacing him would have been a problem in the transfer market that we don't need this summer.
Not when he's injured 85% of the time.Good decision. He's a decent player and gives us a different option against pacey strikers.
Could be a sign that we’re not spending a penny this summer #glazerhalfarsedCould be a sign that we're buying in another position. #glasshalffull
Sounds like you're exaggerating a little.Not when he's injured 85% of the time.
I saw straight through it.We're owned by Glazers, its no surprise they show a preference to players that are made of glass.
Do you see what I did there?
He's played 37 league games in 5 years.Sounds like you're exaggerating a little.
Typical of us. Scared to lose our 'asset'. Bailly is great on his day but at one of the biggest clubs on the planet you need more than the one good game every few months.Tweet

We never learn ffs
That's because he isn't first choice obviously. He's been fit a lot of this season and been on the bench.He's played 37 league games in 5 years.
Or the opposite. The money for transfers is minimal.The only reason I can see this happening is that we already have enough to do this summer in terms of transfers.
Only signing of the summer.1st signing of the summer.
Other than his first season (38), every season since he has averaged less than 16 matches per season. Getting anything more than 20 a season is progress.This is gonna be fun. Hope he is capable of playing at least 30 games a season and 10 games in a row. This will make him a half fit CB.
I'd take Bailly over Axel anyday. They're both always injured so give me the better defender. Tuanzebe has yet to prove he's good enough to be our 4th CB imo.I’d rather we let him go and picked up a bit of a fee, especially if we could bring in Varane.
Maguire - Varane
Lindelof - Taunzebe
That should be more than enough throughout a season, especially with the likes of Mengi coming through.
both unreliable. Imagine maguire gets injured. Then both of the weetabix get injured as soon as they play and we have lindelof and mctominay at centre halfI'd take Bailly over Axel anyday. They're both always injured so give me the better defender. Tuanzebe has yet to prove he's good enough to be our 4th CB imo.
4th CB means you are unlikely to play especially given how non-injury prone Maguire and Lindelof are. Bailly is obviously signing the contract not to be 4th CB.I'd take Bailly over Axel anyday. They're both always injured so give me the better defender. Tuanzebe has yet to prove he's good enough to be our 4th CB imo.
