    I'm surprised Wigan wouldn't go back in again. It would be good to see him, but what would that then say about Vetokele and Tucudean? If we did get him I can't see us playing all 3 at once and I doubt any of them would be happy to be the one on the bench.

    I'm all for it. Maybe he's Reza's replacement?

    It wouldn't say anything about Vetokele or Tucudean as Nick Powell is a midfielder and the other two are strikers

    The Latics already have one United youngster on loan and Coyle hopes Keane can replicate the success of forward Nick Powell, who has scored five times in 14 games since his deadline day move to Wigan.

    However, his transfer deadline day move to Wigan says he is a midfielder. I'm confused.

    He is a midfielder but an attacking midfielder but it isn't going to happen anyway just because some youngster with 900 followers on twitter said so.

    Oh for 900 followers on twitter I could then start the gossip

    He's an attacking midfielder, but often played on his own up front for Wigan last year

    Very much an attacking midfielder, the question for me is, who gets bombed out to make room, would I suspect be Jackson, unless its a 4-3-3 with Powell being the attacking one of a middle 3

    even then Jackson would probably be sacrificed
    Cousins Powell Buyens

    Think Cousins is behind Buyens and Jackson in the pecking order.

    With over 50 games to play we'll be needing more than a basic 3 or 4 center mids. Think about how tired our midfield looked toward the end of last season (obviously AA looked tired after warming up)

    I think IF Powell came in it would be to play just behind the striker in a front two, but essentially up top. Maybe as the attacking player in a midfield three, but he played up front for Wigan last year.

    I haven't seen him many times, but when I have he's has very much concentrated on the attacking side of the game rather than defensively, so not sure he's got the discipline to play traditional midfield.

    I was there at the playoff final game, one of the best goals I've ever seen live.

    Oh OK mate, I was thinking the same earlier in the thread, BUT it appears to be gathering legs, maybe everyone is quoting everyone else, so thats where the momentum is coming from....but maybe, just maybe....
    Ever hopeful of Tonbridge.

    No reason why Powell couldn't play behind the striker in a 4-5-1 formation, dropping deep when we defend. He looks a very good player, and if we manage to sign him on a Loan deal I'd be very pleased.

    I can't help loving the excitement of this thread, can we start a Messi and Ronaldo one next, that would be better than the original orgasm thread.

    We've got Moussa to play behind the striker.

    Wigan fans seem to think of Powell how we thought of Stephens.
