Busy in loss Bailey sent in eight inaccurate crosses and made three tackles during Friday's 1-0 loss to Southampton.

Impact Bailey was the main creative threat for Aston Villa on Friday, even if he failed to break onto the score sheet. Bailey seems to finally have a nailed-down starting role, and is probably the most talented player on the team. He is growing into a solid fantasy role and should be a consistent starter after the break.

Assists off bench Bailey provided one assist on two shots (one on goal) during Friday's 3-1 loss to Arsenal.

Impact Bailey made just his fourth appearance of the season off the bench during Friday's loss. He added his second assist as he continues to acclimatize to the English game. He will hope to be in the starting XI for the first time Sunday, against West Ham.

Substitute option Friday Bailey (quadriceps) will be available off the bench versus Arsenal on Friday.

Impact Bailey returns to the squad following a three-match stint on the sidelines due to his quadriceps injury. It was the second time the midfielder missed multiple games this year, which has prevented him from featuring in the starting XI. If he can avoid further absences, Bailey should at least be in contention to start moving forward.

Available against Arsenal Bailey (quad) is back in training and will be in the squad for Friday's match against Arsenal, according to manager Dean Smith.

Impact This is good news on Bailey, but he hasn't appeared in a month and it's hard to see him getting a start in the first match back. He's undoubtedly a massive spark for the side, but he'll need a couple matches to get back his fitness given that he hasn't gone more than 34 minutes this season.

Impact It's unfortunate for Bailey, who has been out since suffering the injury Sept. 18. He'll be out for more than a month with the injury and at this point, it's not guaranteed he'll be ready to return next week for the trip to Arsenal.

Impact It's unfortunate for Bailey, but it's an update that was expected. He's managed just three appearances off the bench this season and was the main reason Villa won their match 3-0 against Everton. The hope is that he'll only be absent two games but with any muscle injury, timelines are never guaranteed.

Expected to miss multiple matches Bailey suffered a quad injury last weekend and according to Ashley Preece of Birmingham Live, the winger could miss multiple weeks.

Impact The early reports on Bailey's injury aren't positive, though at least he's not expected to miss more than a month. It's been a disappointing start to his Villa tenure, mainly because he's struggled to hold onto his health.

Scores off bench, leaves injured Bailey played 21 minutes off the bench and grabbed a goal before leaving with a likely thigh injury in Saturday's match against Everton.

Impact It was a nice appearance for Bailey, but he apparently pushed too hard, as he left with another injury. He came on to a 0-0 match and then left up 3-0. His corner led to an own goal and then he bagged the team's third goal, highlighting the potential he holds in the side. He's struggled to hold onto his health with Villa and if it's indeed a muscle injury, it could keep him out another match or two.

Plays off bench Saturday Bailey played 34 minutes off the bench and finished with a chance created from two corners in Saturday's 3-0 loss against Chelsea.

Impact Bailey was back from a minor issue and played a decent chunk off the bench. He's played 64 minutes in two matches for Villa and as long as he can stay healthy, he should start contending for starts on the wing.

SEPTEMBER 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Training in full Bailey (undisclosed) is training in full and will be an option Saturday against Chelsea, according to manager Dean Smith.

Impact It's a positive update for Bailey, who missed the two matches prior to the international break. There's a chance he moves into the starting XI given other issues in the side, but he's played just 30 minutes for Villa so that may not be the case.

SEPTEMBER 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Back in training Bailey (undisclosed) was pictured in training ahead of Saturday's trip to Chelsea.

Impact Bailey is back in training and there should be an update on his status prior to Saturday's match. He played 30 minutes in the opener and hasn't appeared since, but it looks like he should be an option against Chelsea.
