Anyone who knows why Bailly isn’t starting all our games ahead of Lindelof, please tell me. I’d be much obliged. But don’t tell me because he is a “disaster waiting to happen", because Lindelof is a disaster happening all the time. Even Maguire looks confident going forward when he plays with Bailly.

Probably fitness.
Not sure he’s the answer to our Maguire + 1 equation though.

And you think Maguire is the answer to our Defence?

No, I think that he is a nailed on starter because of his fee and so the best we can hope for is to find someone that gets the best out of him.

Fair point.

Both have pros and cons... I don't think a strong argument can be made for one being better than the other tbh.
I'm hoping Tuanzebe gets fits and fights for a place, he has the tools to take that spot.

If Bailly could stay fit, I'd prefer him over Lindelof, and that's not just based on this season so far. But I don't think he's the long-term answer either.

Its amazing after paying silly money we need someone alongside maguire to get him to play better, surely it should be the other way round

Also personally would get rid of our entire fitness team because they dont really seem to be benefiting the players at all, we look shattered all the time

Same problem with Pogba Pay £80m+ for players and then decide who we need to help them play well.

Because Lindelof is a better defender and can actually stay fit. Bailly is the Ivorian Phil Jones.
