I'm actually surprised we've not been linked with Nick Powell. Still only 20, knows Bobby, has quite a bit of experience, knocking them in for fun for the ManUre U21s, forward looking midfielder....?

anyone?

Nick Powell is heading back to Manchester United after Nigel Pearson opted to rip up his loan deal at Leicester City.
Pearson has decided to end Powell’s season’s loan prematurely after the United midfielder’s failure to impress left Leicester’s coaching staff exasperated. Telegraph Sport understands Powell has infuriated Pearson and his backroom team with his attitude in training and general timekeeping since joining on loan in September.

His loan to Wigan also ended on a sour note after starting out very well, Rosler dropped him towards the end of the season despite having an injury crisis, so appears to have attitude problems.

Oh well, perhaps not then...
Was he not at Wigan Twice? I seem to remember him having a very good spell under Martinez
 

Roberto never mentions looking at players because a) it stops him painting himself into a corner, b) it doesn't unsettle current players and c) it keeps him on good terms with other managers.

It means absolutely nowt about whether we actually are or not and I'm fine with that.
Agreed, look at the trouble it got Rolf Harris into.

Manchester United will send youngster Nick Powell back out on loan before the January transfer window closes, Goal can confirm.

The 20-year-old spent the first half of the season at Leicester City, but was recalled by the Old Trafford club, who were understood to be unhappy with the midfielder's lack of first-team playing time.

Powell returned to Old Trafford at the start of January, and has been assessed by Louis van Gaal over recent weeks ahead of another loan move, with a host of Championship clubs interested in acquiring his services for the rest of the season.

Goal understands promotion-chasing pair Derby and Watford are among the leading contenders to secure Powell's services.

Wigan are also keen on Powell, who spent last season on loan at the DW Stadium as they attempted to return to the Premier League at the first time of asking.

Who knows... :-)

Just the once I think. Have been keeping an eye in Redcafe to see how he has been getting on because he is talented and can play in several positions. But unfortunately he doesn't appear to have learnt his lesson from the Wigan loan.
Did score a nice header against the Liverpool U21s this week though


He might be going to Hull, see if Steve Bruce can knock some sense into him.
Edit - I'd trust the Telegraph before Goal.com ;)
 

Have we been linked at all with last year's saviour?

Everton manager Roberto Martinez has stressed the importance of two absent players via the club’s website.

The Spaniard says "Steven Pienarr and Leon Osman not being available has affected the side, because they are both important to the style of play he feels is best for the club".
My heart sinks a little more with each Roberto quote

But he is right, they keep the ball well, and have benn key for us for years.
 
Would've taken a chance on Mcmanaman myself at under £5m, he was the one Wigan player I wanted originally. Obviously McCarthy has proven he's the best since but does seen a snip for a natural winger.

In sure Roberto has better targets lined up though if he's letting Mcmanaman go elsewhere.

Pienaar has been dreadful when he has played this season, and how he played prior to this season is hardly reverent.
Are you suggesting that if these two return all will be well, you may see it, but I am afraid I do not.
