Leandro Bacuna and James Collins

Barring injuries, will we see either of these playing again soon? I don't think so

Re: Leandro Bacuna and James Collins

I was going to ask the same about Mark Harris.

Or Watters....

His recall seems a bit pointless now. The manager would no doubt argue that he couldn't be sure he'd have so many strikers at his disposal and that would be fair enough given the lateness of Ikepazu's arrival, but I'll be surprised if we see much of Watters between now and the end of the season.

Strange signing from day one really.

Re: Leandro Bacuna and James Collins

He must be on low wages and, as you said, we made a snap decision to recall him just in case we didn't get any alternatives over the line in time. He reminds me of a poorer, slower Joe Mason

Re: Leandro Bacuna and James Collins

I hope Harris doesn't get frozen out now, he's not going to be as good as Davies or maybe Colwill but he's got something about him, he was great in the first half against Liverpool

Re: Leandro Bacuna and James Collins

I'm surprised Harris didn't get on last night, even as a 10 minute sub

Apparently, the club turned down at least one loan offer for him on deadline day.

He needs to move on now in my opinion. He's 23, he made his debut five years ago and he still hasn't cemented a place in the side.

Maybe we should have kept Rhys Healey

I would keep Harris. I don’t see Collins or Watters playing at all. I would have let Harris go on loan though given the depth we have, he’d benefit from getting regular, first team football.

Abject performance v Barnsley

It was like playing with 10 men whilst he was on the pitch.

2nd best in challenges far too often.

Harris is the best option IMO of the three.

Has always been a good impact sub with pace and trickery far more evident than the other two.

Anyway, he's here until the end of the season (?)

He was in the wrong place at the wrong time to prosper under Warnock / Harris.

May have been different had he been in the squad now.

Totally agree, but perhaps Morison could have got the best out of him

We sold Healey in the summer of 2019 when Warnock was still our manager.
