When we send him out on loan he just gets pissed up and irritates people.

Powell is the best choice for a goal threat substitution among the choices LVG currently have.It didn't work out but I'm amazed at the abuse Nick received.
That saying I don't really expect him to make it.

Powell was absolute class tonight in the 6-1 reserves win, really hoping he can take some of they ability over to the first team, he certainly has the talent to make it here.
Play him up front and move Martial to the left. See how he does for a full game instead of 5 minutes.
so he is fast gaining his fitness. excellent.
Wayne Rooney doesn't even need a loan to do that.
Yup, worked his arse off too, really had the bit between his teeth, he looks twice the player to the one who played in the Norwich reserve match just a few weeks ago. Genuinely the most polished performance I've seen at this level for a long while.
when he first came to us, I was very impressed with what I saw of him. Hopefulyy he will be a key player for us.
Where did he play?
There's a player in there but again some of these lads need a run of games that I just don't feel he's going to get unless he has an outstanding cameo for first team and then continues to build on that. Not easy for a young player as we've seen on many occasions....
Up top, his movement for his second was that of a class striker too, definitely looks like he's beginning to really understand the role.
The one gripe with Powell before he disappeared on loan was that he seemed to drift through games and didn't really apply himself.
Ignoring the ridiculous sub appearances where he was doomed to fail in the roles he was given, he's looking like a man with a point to prove. He's suddenly got that fire in his belly. He got injured playing for the reserves a couple of years ago, right before Adnan broke through, and he was the best player every game prior to that. Then Adnan sort of picked up that mantle in Powells absence. The talent is there and it looks like the hunger is suddenly there. I really hope he kicks on.
Like I said though, I'm not critical of his recent sub appearances at all. He is being brought on and playing as a target man on the last defender, it's just ridiculous.

In the game against Norwich reserves he was flying into challenges and looking so pumped up, at the time it seemed like he was just being a bit of a dick but now it does seem like that hunger and aggression similar to Rooney in his younger years. I know a lad who played that night for Norwich and they didn't want to go near him. Now he's finding a bit of sharpness too he could genuinely make an impact on the first team in the near future.
If he works out or not, he is exactly the type of player LVG likes to play at number 10
He definitely has plenty of talent.
Dunno, where he is totally shit and what not theory comes from.

Glad that Powell is starting to get match fit, hopefully he'll kick on and take his chance in the first team.

the problem with Powell was always his attitude, yesterday he showed he can chase the ball even at the last minute of the game, long may it continue and he can find a decent club for him. While I dont think he wouldnt do any worse on for fellaini, maybe its a bit too late for him to make it here, we will see if he gets any more chances with that big injury list..
BTW I absloutely wouldn't mind him there up top or anywhere for rooney, saying this, he would be good enough for us by that standard..

He really is, a goalscorer with strength to hold onto the ball in tight spaces, has a fair bit of vision about him too.
His talent was obvious, and I always criticised his attitude. Seems to be over it, I hoped the lad would understand the seriousness of the situation and that his contract is up soon. Finally starts to show what he is made of, love it. Keep it up Nicky boy. A few good games here and there pushing his fitness levels, I can see him making the next steps quite quickly if he shows that new determination and hunger regularly
Is there a compilation of his performance from yesterday?
The way things have been going I wouldn't be surprised if he starts vs Norwich 
He'll definitely come on for the best performing player after 70 minutes.The way things have been going I wouldn't be surprised if he starts vs Norwich
Well we have a trend of that yeh. I think LVG might be tempted to start him in the 10 role or at the very least give him the second half dependent on how we're doing.
i think he'll be sold in january. Out of nowhere yes, but a gut feeling.
I've noticed LVG gives some random players time just before shipping them out. Might be another one here.
His contract is up in June next year anyway.
People think he gave him a chance in our vital CL game just to see if he cuts it or else he will be sold? 
Wow, Louis is crazy, but not that stupid.

I voted Powell MOTM for the Bournemouth game - it was a protest vote if I'm honest.
Give them some visibility to get people to bid. FM style.
Nah, he's only 21, he has plenty of time. Seemed like a real talent a couple of years ago, wonder if he might be one of those players who sort of fly in under the radar.
Works every time
the big question is his attitude, I dont think he can maintain that level of concentration to succeed here but who knows
He is out of contract in the summer. Everton want him it looks like.
If he is on the way back we better tie him down.

Would be a mistake to let him go so early. Everton would be a good club for him, but i hope we have faith in him.
We can always send him on loan there next season.
haha, yes probably.
According to this guy at Bleacher report, he is being considered to start the Norwich game.

Not sure how true it is but if it's true it would be a quick rise.
