Is it maybe just a case of taking time to settle into a new club, unfortunately one in a worryingly disorganized state on and off the pitch?
Add in the ‘challenge’ of playing with an increasingly erratic Eric Pieters behind him and his early struggles are perhaps less surprising.
I thought he was the best of a very bad bunch at Leeds. He’s never going to be a world beater and I still wouldn’t have signed him personally BUT there’s no doubt the baggage he carries with him meant he wasn’t afforded the usual period of grace a new signing gets.

I am not sure, why he doesn't seem to have got a mention v Bolton
Commited the defender and put in a good ball for ince, who finished well . Good football between the pair of them

Hate to suggest it, but I think the cross he put in was sliced and only went to Ince by accident!!!

Mclean just had his head down and put it in the mixer. How very dare you it was a perfect pinpoint cross. A bit like the one a few minutes later. It's just that on that occasion non of our players had the foresight to stand in row 17 of the Boothen which made it look bad.

Mclean just had his head down and put it in the mixer. I've no agenda against McClean. As you say it got into the box, the rest is up to the others. He perhaps needs to dial down his delivery a bit as they can be a little strong, rather like Erik's in fact.

Really thought he was crap before the Hull game, but from that game on something seemed to change for him and he has been very good since. Unfortunately he got an injury, but that didn't seem to be a problem at all on Tuesday!

Awful display again today. Pretty invisible and on the rare occasions where he touched the ball it was head down, run, try and kick it somewhere near the box. No vision at all.
Our lack of wing options is a massive concern. The even bigger concern being that Rowett clearly rates this one very highly.

My argument against signing this guy were always that he is dog shit for all the baggage he brings with him. Loan to the Vale in Jan.
