MC Prussian Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 A transfer that could work out very nicely. Anyone have a clue how much you think he would cost? 2 million? Or 15m because he's English. Currently valued at £5m, but I don't trust Transfermarkt that much. The actual sum could be well below that. Is he a central midfielder? He can play in the middle, but from what I've heard, he's more suitable for an attacking midfielder position.
XLM Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Definitely would strengthen the squad. Hopefully Pearson can get his full potential out of him.
Bert Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 You're right, my bad. Sill, having gone through the trials and tribulations at Manchester United (like James and Drinkwater) will have probably affected his playing style to a certain extent - even though he's been brought up at Crewe. Call it the "Manchester Flair". Remember the last two midfielders we signed from Crewe?
Fox92 Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Crewe have got a great production line as well though. They have produced some good players over the years.
dpjfox Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 i remember them Bert if this guy is half as good as either hed be an asset a combination of the 2 then hed be awesome
MC Prussian Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Remember the last two midfielders we signed from Crewe? Lennon and Savage, I presume.

He can play in the middle, but from what I've heard, he's more suitable for an attacking midfielder position. So he should fit in that attacking mid role that Andy King was playing in towards the end of the season?
xHamzah Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Got done for drink driving recently...probably celebrating our promotion
KFS Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 He plays the role King has adopted over the last 4 games. Arguably a very similar player. He's not particularly pacy, but he'll pop up around the box and play balls through. He's gifted, but I don't know if he's really a lot better than King?
Candidcamera Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Neil Lennon and he did well as for Savage well... He is 20 years old and 6 foot - has done well for his age so far and I think might go very well for City. Hopefully not breaking the weekly pay.
Narborough_fox Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 I'll always remember watching his goal against Cheltenham in the League 2 play-off final, and his all round performance, and thinking this boy could go far. Seems to have hit a stumbling block in his development once he joined United but with the right guidance he could be a top 6 Premier League player for sure. Just hope he doesn't want too big wages.

I was at that game, and he practically won that game for Crewe single handily at the age of 18. I think he would be a great addition and still has a lot of potential to fulfil.
nickelbyfox Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Seems to fit the bill - player with a lot of potential and would love to have him here!
LESTA-JESTER Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Wigan fans reckon he's awful apparently. What do Wigan fans know.
Dan Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 What do Wigan fans know. What did Reading fans know about Matt Mills?
LESTA-JESTER Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 What did Reading fans know about Matt Mills? Most Reading fans actually rated him, the rest are probably bitter he left.
Monsell1976 Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 For me we have good ex Man U players, who have had a better championship season than Powell, and are unproven in the premier league. For me a player around mid twenties, that has played in a top division for a season or two would be a better option.
Dan Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Most Reading fans actually rated him, the rest are probably bitter he left. They didn't at all. I'm more inclined to trust what Wigan fans say on Powell than what ours do.
Steven Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Wigan fans reckon he's awful apparently. They know less than
Guest Posted 16 May 2014 Posted 16 May 2014 Wigan fans reckon he's awful apparently. but they love Waggy!
