We're talking here of a player who has played right back, central midfield and as a number 10, excelling in none and not being able to hold down a regular place in the team. A very poor signing.

It’s more than a little dodgy

Where have you got this from.?

He is grim but I think shooting him is a touch drastic.

Everyone says he's been poor yet he's reached 110 league games for us under 3 different managers.
Surely the worst signing ever (as one post stated) would get nowhere near 3 figures in appearances?!?
What have the managers seen that we have missed as fans?

I don’t think he is as bad as some say but the constant changing of position won’t have helped. A right back no, a number 10 no. Oddly I think he could have played as a right wing back but I don’t think it’s ever been tried. Also lack of options and being stuck with a big earner probably meant managers kept trying him.

Bacuna was decent enough as a central midfielder in his first 1.5 seasons with us. Harris started the rot by consistently playing him out of position at right-back and McCarthy finished the job by using him as an attacking midfielder.

Difficult to get him confused with Whittingham

No he wasn't. He was garbage in the PL but Warnock had to play him to justify the money he'd spunked up on him. He offered little in his first Championship season and statistically created and tackled less than everyone else in centre midfield. His passing has always been below average, even in a shit midfield like ours.
