    Tayo was also there until last Jan before joining us. We were also heavily linked to Croasdale last summer as well as Collar for a short time this summer.

    When we made changes on Tuesday we looked to change to a 3-4-1-2 with Sarc in behind two roaming forwards so maybe its with that in mind.

    Although we did change our system mid game against Birmingham to one which had 2 up front and a 10 in the hole, and alexander said he'd consider doing so in fiture too, so maybe it's to give us that tactical flexibility as well

    It's definitely up there with the connections with Jack Hunt. It feels like if he signs we'll see him on the pitch half a dozen times at most and he'll be gone with people wondering why we bothered.

    Funnily enough that was the system we went to against Blackburn for the last 15 mins with Sarce playing that role. I wonder if GA wants Powell to fit his Plan B system?

    It's a gamble having Tyreik Wright as one of our number 10 options right now

    I think it would be a really lazy signing, full stop. Unless Sharpe and Alexander know something we don't - always happy to be proved wrong :blush:

    Sounds like Harry Smith might be on his way from Swindon, they've got a £350k offer on the table from a Danish side.

    Only bringing it up as they were apparently interested in Tyler Smith last year. Obviously wouldn't be a like for like in style, but he knows the place and could be an open slot for an outgoing?

    Jamie Raynor on pre-match build up today says Powell is a done deal. Joining next week.

    Fingers crossed this turns out to be good business for the Bantams.

    They must see something we can’t? They are the pros at the end of the day.

    I reckon Halliday will be off soon. Fleetwood is a rumour I heard today.

    Don't know where Powell will play. Always looked a little lazy when I've seen him play,albeit has ability. Needs to get up to speed with his fitness and then prove he has the energy to play as GA demands.

    I think he will be used as a back up to add some depth to the no 10 positions as I think we know a time will come when Sarcevic needs a rest or picks up an injury, also as he is a natural 10 he gives us an option if we change to a 3412 to play that role behind the strikers

    And this was posted a day before Wright missed a hat trick of chances in the second half,
    And no-one was surprised
