“But he’d just got into the team and got settled, and it’s disappointing.
“We’re disappointed he could be out of the side for Bolton – we can’t hide that.
“It was a game (v West Brom) we wanted to win and get ourselves 30 points before our Christmas dinner, but it didn’t happen.

“Haris had a fantastic debut as a 19-year-old. There were positives, but in all honesty, we should have done better.”
