He will be fine. Slower progress at start will pay off long term

He was out injured for a long time and had to work hard to get his place back. I think he'll be ok

Superb goal-line clearance by McClean from Paddy O'Bamford. Collins doing okay but Stoke have a lot to do now in the second half after that penalty giveaway by Smith.

Looks like Collins was subbed off at HT. Was he playing poorly or a change in formation?

It hardly bespeaks badly of Collins - they've conceded three since he went off.

Well whatever reason he was taken off it hasn't worked.
His replacement Chester has just gifted a goal at the start of the second half, Bamford hits the bar 5 minutes later, Stoke have now conceded 2 goals in the ten minutes that Collins has come off

He looked flatfooted for the penalty Leeds got just before half time. He looks as if he has played very little match time.
As for McClean he looks poor and lacking confidence. Think I prefer him wearing balaclava then hairband !!

Starts again today, seems to have nailed down a first team position. Mcclean not in the squad again... might need to drop down to L1 in January.
Masterson on the bench for qpr again, would be really good if both masterson and collins were regular first team starters and work there way into the senior squad

You would hope McClean could still get a lower end Championship club in the new year as long as he's reasonable about wages. Preston/Luton/Barnsley/QPR etc. would probably be interested.
That said, Celtic will likely be throwing money around in January to try and rescue their ambitions of "the 10" and would be more likely to meet his wage demands. Collins has been red carded I see.

I don't know what's going on with McClean-player of the year last year despite all the political nastiness but suddenly not in the squad. He may need to get out of there, don't know how re the transfer window situation. Collins should get a chance this season, no idea at this stage what tonight's dismissal was about.

Mcclean is injured apparently. Collins sending off was ridiculous, I was watching the match and checked online afterwards and no one seems to know what it was for🤷♂️

As discussed already, Stoke had a dreadful season and winning their POTY unfortunately carried recognition in the mould of "best of a bad bunch" as opposed to having a stunning season. I do agree, he would definitely do a job for a Championship side. In truth he isn't going to improve his game at 31, so what he needs now is just to be playing football week in week out at some half decent level.

Collins and Bazunu would be my answer to What young Irish talents currently have the best chance of playing with a top top club in the future. Obviously not withstanding the likes of Doherty (not young) and Kelleher recently I’m talking playing regularly
They are the 2 I think Collins under the radar but starting to play regularly with Stoke and in a similar way to Rodon if he plays regularly in a decent Championship side hopefully he will start to catch big clubs attention. Already linked to Man Utd in the past.
