Yea I have been impressed with his signings also. And although Edgar was the worst signing of the lot upto press, he did do what was required. And Burnley had him in there promotion season and promptly released him at that point. Powell seems to bring players in who can do a specific job for the team rather than buying someone on their name or reputation.

Any chance we might sign Edgar and Majewski? Been good for us?

I know we have Smith at right back who's a decent prospect.. but the number 3 for Swindon tonight Nathan Byrne has been excellent in both legs! (So far)!. I know he had #3 on his back but not a comparison with Smith? He was very impressive holding the ball and going forward. Was he playing as a wingback - didn't see him do much at the back - like most of the Swindon defence!

I wish... Pretty sure Derby won't let him go cheap though, probably worth a few mil now...think he might be out of Town's reach. Always liked him at Dundee United though!

Anyone think Powell will try to sign some players from Charlton? Chris Solly, Igor Vetokele, Tony Watt, Rhoys Wiggins, Johnnie Jackson and Callum Harriott are amongst the ones I'd look at. I know some people were upset we didn't sign Danny Hollands last transfer window, but he's now at Portsmouth and technically, even though his last name is Hollands, he doesn't count as being Dutch

Solly definitely did, as well as Harriott. Vetokele and Watt are the only 2 who didn't play under Powell, I think, but I thought I'd throw them in anyway.

Lawrie Wilson been released by Charlton wouldn't surprise me at all if he ended up here.

Charlton have released Tal Ben Haim, Simon Church, Chris Eagles, Roger Johnson, Lawrie Wilson and Oguchi Onyewu. Didn't even know Chris Eagles or Roger Johnson played for them, but I quite rate Eagles. Tal Ben Haim used to play for West Ham, Man City, Portsmouth and Chelsea amongst other teams, but he's now 33 years old. Also, Blackpool have released Andrea Orlandi and I remember him being quite good with a football, maybe one of Blackpool's only decent players.

Birmingham boss Gary Rowett has dismissed reports Michael Morrison could be sold to Huddersfield this summer. (Birmingham Mail) CB who used to play under Powell at Charlton, seems realistic?

I'm not personally obsessed with having big CBs, as it's not quite as important these days, but Morrison is only six foot, one inch shorter than Tommy Smith.

Bradley Dack from Gillingham. Always seem to play well when i've seen him. Any thoughts? He has looked lively every time I have seen the Gills play this season but he is quite lightweight and has the tendency to go missing.

I like him, confident on the ball and scores some good goals, but can't see it with Scanz down one wing and the development of Bunn and Lolley on the other :S
