I'd take a look at Powell, looked a very good player who has been screwed a little by united deciding to spend a quarter of a billion trying to get back to the top.

Hasn't he spent most of his time being injured?

Some of the released players are interesting, for the Championship anyway. Delaney of Palace, Fletcher of Sunderland. Worth a punt but surely Delaney will get a new deal.

Delaney I would look at.

Not a player anyone will be talking about for decades to come, but more reliable than at least three of our current centre halves.

Osman released he'd be useful.

Daily Heil reporting that we're signing a defender for £3m next week (the lad from Bournemouth maybe?) and we're working on deals for a defender, winger and striker.

Osman would be a smart signing.

I like Osman but at 35 I'm not so sure.

Why would he accept a one-year deal?

Osman at 35 would be fine he's never relied on pace. He's easily got another 2-3 years in him.

Not likely to get a longer deal anywhere else is he, far better players than him still only get one year deals at that age. I'd take him if the deal was right, always thought he was a good player.

I'm not bothered about offering players a one year deal to get us out of the division. I'd rather we signed players that will form a team which will get us promoted and keep us in the Premier League.

I'd rather we do whatever we can to get out of this division then worry about who we bring in to keep us there personally.
