Great that we created so many chances, but rewatching it last night I found it very embarrassing. I was thinking I would have liked to have seen Archer, have a couple of them, certainly a more natural striker .

Agree0 Disagree0

This is the second manager who isn't using Archer Dave, that indicates to me that he isn't ready and will probably be sent on loan in January. Agree we need a more clinical striker however, we are creating chances and really need to start converting them!

BK, it's rumoured that Archer will go out on loan in January, its probably the right thing to do. My Brother in law is a season ticket holder at Preston and doesn't think Archer is any better than championship level. Until he gets a run of games its difficult to judge his true ability, obviously he has age on his side, unfortunately how is going to get that run to prove wether he has it ir not.

Emery has surprised me with his selections but obviously he sees the players every day in training, he likes Bailey, which i find strange, he doesn't seem to like Dendonker, Chambers, Cash, Ings which you have to respect, he obviously sees more than we do. I think we will buy a right back, central defender, attacking midfielder, striker and winger and maybe goal keeper, in the January window. If he doesn't i think we will continue to struggle. We are definitely short of the talent that Emery needs that will enable us to push on.

BK said Archer, because the times I've seen him, he’s an instinctive finisher, doesn’t ness about just puts his foot through it .

I can’t see us signing 6 players in January Scotty, I think we will probably sign 3 at most with a winger central defender and a striker being the priority positions for me.

27 Dec 2022 19:40:15
Loti you are probably right and the three you mention would be my starting point, however i think we need more. I just get so frustrated watching, Bailey, Luiz, Konsa, constantly giving 5 out of ten performances, which has happened consistently under previous managers and yet they Continue to start, whilst they are continually picked we are never going to improve.

27 Dec 2022 23:05:37
Scotty you must watch different games to me

28 Dec 2022 01:54:30
Bucky, did you not watch yesterday's game then, all three i mentioned were rated as an under performing 5/10 and this is not the first time.

28 Dec 2022 11:50:10
Whoever writes some of those ratings are either trying to stir up a conversation or shouldn't be a sports journalist.
Bailey obviously loses a point or 2 for the fluffed chances but the rest of his game was still worth a decent 7.
Dougie gave the ball away a couple of times with lazy passes but grew into the game and got the assist, more like a 6.
Mcginn had moments like the first cross to Warkins but was always going to be difficult with how up for it Robertson and Nunez were. I'd say 5.5 or 6 only because he wasted possession smashing long shots into opponents who were directly in front.

28 Dec 2022 12:53:00
According to the Fotmob app I use for latest scores, stats etc Luiz was rated 7.5 assisted for Watkins, McGinn 6.6 and Bailey 6.2. If they were no good why are there rumours Chelse want Bailey and both Liverpool and Aresnal bid for Dougie?

28 Dec 2022 13:31:54
If we could get good money, i would sell both of them. Just remember neither have been guaranteed starters under previous managers, and remember this was in a bottom half table side, so what chance would they have to start in a Liverpool, Chelsea or Arsenal side. Both players are far too inconsistent to be a regular starting asset to any decent team.

28 Dec 2022 20:22:34
To be fair to you Scotty you have been consistent in your criticism of Luiz, Bailey and others but I think you are in a minority most on here appreciate what they bring and as others have said other teams like Roma have shown interest particularly in Luiz and Mourinho doesn’t tend to sign crap players

28 Dec 2022 21:11:51
Loti, quite a few on here have agreed with me in the past and many many on other platforms are equally as critical. i'm not sure exactly what they bring, Luiz passing is poor at best and Bailey can not keep the ball, all of which do not add up to the quality needed in the premier league.

29 Dec 2022 19:06:27
Bailey is starting to come good to be fair, he looks like he can do something when he’s on the ball and he’s our biggest threat going forward, luiz I’m not fond of he’s very average at best I’d take anything over 20 million if it was offered.

29 Dec 2022 23:09:38
Bailey can be frustrating but he's getting better and gives us a little bit of an X factor going forwards. Too many steady Eddie's won't give you a cutting edge.
Luiz has a passing range that could make him the next Pirlo but he's a bit too arrogant for his age which leads to him not taking due care and attention at the right times.
Outside of operation restart I've never been Dougies biggest fan but I do think with the right coaching and team setup, him and Bailey could be 2 of our big hitters.

30 Dec 2022 11:43:50
RK, that's my issue, they both have caveats to most peoples comments, most though don't see the issues as deep as i do. I will be very surprised if both are regular starters once emery has finished building his side.

30 Dec 2022 14:47:12
That's because you seem to refuse to acknowledge the good things they do, no player is perfect.
Salah lost the ball or took the wrong option pretty much every time he got it against us but you'd 100% take him.
Bailey is growing into the team now that he's getting a run of games. His output is improving constantly and he's been pretty much our best player this season.
As signings will be costly and there will be a limit to spending he will play regularly for at least the next 2 years in my opinion considering he's currently the only winger we have.
Dougie has more work to do to avoid being replaced but the ability is there and its up to Emery as to whether or not he can get that out of him.
DMs are normally more experienced so it may be a case of Emery not wanting 2 young ones and currently Kamara wins that battle.
