Following his loan spell at Swansea City came to an end, Edgar was expected to be included in the first team by Laws ahead of the 2010–11 season. He then made his first appearance of the season against Ipswich Town on August 14, 2010, but was sent–off after a second bookable offence in the 79th minutes, in a 1–1 draw. However, throughout the 2010–11 season saw Edgar struggled in the first team and his own injury concerns and was restricted to eight appearances in all competitions. Despite this, Edgar was given a rare start on the last game of the season against Cardiff City and despite drawing 1–1, he made impression during the match.
