Steve Down South Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Agree with Birley Owl, not so far out of position and Penney has to take some responsibility for what I thought was a poor performance lacking in application (not for first time recently).

Woodie Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Drew first half. Won second. Good management if you ask me. Nothing to see here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superb man management toward a young player that Jos. Yep - after great performances on the left hand side rightly earning him plaudits he now is being played centrally where he is completely ineffective. bizarre management.

McRightSide Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Yeah but he needed a rest as he can only play Saturday to Saturday. Clearly the extra week off is hard on him (according to Jos) Penney was poor again. He’s better without Thorniley behind him, there seems to be an overuse of passing to him. Thorniley did well again and will likely be drppped as usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I like it when he sees the ball near to him but just kind of doesn’t bother going for it at all. Great prospect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, say what you like about Jos, but in this context Penney would not have got a start this season without Luhukay’s decision to select youngsters. He has to take responsibility for his own performances, wherever (within reason) he’s played. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Not physically or mentally good enough, he plays at the pace of a retirement match Send him out on loan to get a taste of real football. His inclusion isn’t of any use to the team at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigblueowl Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 To be honest Penny and Baker were very poor. Only Thorniley out of the young uns is good enough at the moment. The substitution was the right call and if Penny can't handle that then he needs to change career. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roundhayowl Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 He broke through at left back. He is a left back. Our other left backs are appalling. Yet he got pushed forward and then frozen out. He then puts him back in but still too far forward. Poor and bizarre management - way to go to zap his confidence Jos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not ready to be a winger at this level but he had been impressive as a left back. Awfully exposed at LB in the championship, the lads not quite ready I’m afraid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ka58 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 (edited) There were no wingers out there tonight. bannan reach and Penney were all across the middle of the pitch just like against United the other week. either he can’t play left wing because he’s constantly too Central - or he’s being told to tuck in. either way if you watched that game and thought he was playing left wing you’re wrong I’m afraid.

Feelthepayne Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Just because he's a young player and not scapegoated doesn't mean he can't be critisiced for today. Out of position or not, he was still struggling with playing 5 yard passes as well as other basics and keeping him on could have cost us the game He was very poor today, even though I am in the Jos out camp, taking him off was the right decision, he was having a bad game, its not poor man management, its facts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
