Niall Huggins.

Feel sorry for the lad. Has a great appetite when able to show it and pace to burn. Hope he can himself sorted at some point.
 

I've never really understood the hype with him. Not to say he's been poor as he hasn't. But he's had about 15 good performances at Championship level in his entire career. Needs to produce far more than that to justify the way people speak of him.

I feel for him but this is his 5th season at the club and he's been unavailable for 3.5 of the previous 4.

At the very least he needs a loan but he's got Mr Consistent and Reliable - who is also younger than him - in Hume and Mukiele who has played at the top level in Europe and the Champions League ahead of him. Meanwhile he has 24 appearances in the Championship and League One.

Desperately needs a loan. I've just got no confidence that he'd play 15 games in a row without an injury, buy he needs to be somewhere that's possible.

loan... nice idea, but he is always injured and cannot play more than a game or so and a bit of easy training
 
The kid needs released at the end of the season imo. We're not a charity and he's done absolutely nothing since he's joined.

You could have Messi like skills but if your injured I'd rather have someone who's rank average who actually contributes.

Hes a waste of a shirt imo and he's not the only one in the squad either (Alese aswell)

This, too many injuries have caught up with him.

I feel for the lad, and before his last major injury he was looking like the player everyone at Leeds had talked about before he came here, however, unfortunately the lads body isn't made top flight football, so It would be better to move him on IMO..
 
Not going to play ahead of Hume, Mukiele at RB or Reinaldo Cirkin at LB. No point in keeping him.

The difference with Alese is that he has actually proved his ability in our side far more than Huggins has. Hard to see Huggins make it in the PL now but Alese certainly can, IMO.

Apart from that, I can see Alese getting game time at some point, but Huggins has almost no chance of that.

He was rusty as hell when he returned from his previous injury too, then after a couple of games he looked shit hot. I believe in Huggins. He will tear everyone a new arsehole if he gets regular time.

In what league?

Playing for Sunderland or Esh Winning will not change the amount of injuries.
Needs to be released.

Has he ever done that. The lads 24 and has barely had any decent games.

Truth be told. We would be lucky to even find a championship team to stump up cash for a fee + contract for him. He's way too injury prone and bang average player.

Not sure what some of our fans base their opinions on. They must watch the games from another dimension.
