It has now reached a stage where I dread seeing his name on the team sheet.Anyone agree?

No I don’t. He’s not played in the right place. He’s a central midfielder and has a good engine. He’s better than Vaulks.

When I see him starting as a forward, yea. He's theres to run rather than scoring or creating.

Sorry I completely disagree.

Not only is Vaulks far more of a goal threat than Bacuna will ever be he's also been involved in creating far more chances than Bacuna.

Fair play to Bacuna for playing out of position so often especially last season but frankly with the emergence of some of our younger midfielders I'm hoping his playing time will be limited from now on but Mick seems to rate him.

At least he's only got about eight years left on his contract.

At least he plays. He’s far better value than some of our squad. He’s been played regularly out of position but doesn’t whine. Doesn’t moan. Just gets out there and plays. He has deficiencies to his game but most players do. Mick rates him. He has a good engine and that will be very useful over the course of the season.
