He had potential only at first but then suddenly exploded with confidence gained from playing in the first team. Not likely to be as good as, but any half decent manager would be giving him his chance to shine as a future star. The problem we have is Monk, who sets us up not to lose games rather than trying to win them, and when adopting this mindset, a young, adventurous, risk-taker makes the manager feel uncomfortable, especially when his job is on the line. Therefore Monk picks steadier, more experienced, players he feels might be less adventurous and take less risks. Which basically curtails Penney’s development. Not sure risk taking left backs is the way to go .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timrud Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Somebody beat me to it, but Penney has all the attributes Palmer is lacking. But Palmer gets game time. Hope Penney can find his way back soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should be developing him and improving him, that can only happen with game time not freezing him out. He's got to be good enough to take Harris's position at the moment he isn't but no doubt he will get a chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRightSide Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 Instead of all the guesswork and conspiracies I also don’t think it’s a million miles off to suggest that he just simply hasn’t done enough when he had the chance. First league game he started and was clearly the weak link Second league game he started and was really poor so he got subbed off and ultimately dropped Watching some footage of the U23s seems to show him just ambling round the pitch Equally, whenever he’s played a few games he’s always done ok at the start and then got found out, similar to Dawson I would say. With Harris banned for 3 games this probably represents his best opportunity to get some minutes on the pitch, so it’s up to him now really... But personally I haven’t been impressed with what I’ve seen, so it’s hardly a stretch to imagine Monk hasn’t either. Still, sometimes it’s easier to try and find a solution outside of...hasn’t played and trained well enough Occam’s razor applies here IMO 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This....in bucketloads...................not involving him in the first team squad is laughable when you look at how consistently bad some of his "favourites" have been.

FreshOwl Posted November 7, 2020 Share Posted November 7, 2020 The better question would be what’s he done right? I always love threads like this. A slight dig at the club for not playing someone who has proved absolutely nothing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westwood and Hutch nominated him as this years WUM. Oh can't be right only November. Maybe told Monk even Jos is a better coach than you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t think Penney was too bad at all in the games he played, we’ve seen far worse individual performances from players this season — players who haven’t been totally frozen out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like at my place of work where management has its favourites. What Penney needs, to do well, is for us to get another manager. Joey actually been one of better players since he came back in. Only bannan was better against Bournemouth. But that doesn't fit a lot of owls fans agenda! Did I really want us to resign him in summer.. Not really! But understand why, limited funds with ffp rarely injured. So bit of a squad filler but seems to want to get more involved in our play this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
