Guest domSWFC Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Solid game today. Much better than against Coventry. Best crosser from open play we have at the club. Crosses don't always find a man, but he whips them into the right areas with pace, which our strikers aren't used to. Give him a run of games and he'll get assists.

Kopparberg Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Good delivery is important and not easy to find. I’ll be watching his next performance closely (if we say Coventry bad, today good) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philb125 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Love how he was closing game out at their corner flag rather than pinned in our own half. The lad always looks to get on the ball and get forward. I think if we had a more solid team he’d flourish. Sign Him Up 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beholder Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Good game. If he plays well for another few games he can go and sign a pre contract somewhere. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteOwl91 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Think its LWB or nothing for him. 4 at the back and i dont think he's defensively good enough to play LB. 3/5 at the back and less reliance on his defence, more license to get forward and i think he really did well today. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUMBELOWS91 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Thought he started poorly but gradually improved. Wouid rather Reach on that side though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a tricky one. I thought Penney grew into the game. Overall though Reach should really have the left hand slot nailed down. But much as i have always stuck up for him, I did find myself exhaling deeply and muttering a bit today about some of Reachs' dangly leg tackling. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, but I just think Reach just constantly turns into trouble on the right. Instinctively, he is half a second faster with his decision making and delivery from the left. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlstastic Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 22. Not had that many first team games. He needs some time. There is a player there definitely. Much better today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Down South Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Much prefer Reach in that position right now, but I do get the sense there may be more to come from Penney. Bearing in mind we’re unlikely to see Reach next season then would like to see Penney continue to be involved and offered a new contract. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is absolutely no chance Reach will be here next season. We can’t offer him an improved contract. A championship team will based on him being a free agent and the highlights reel that his agent will send out. IMO it’s time to give Penney an extended run in the team and try and convince him to resign if he does well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 He did some decent stuff but also looks miles off in some situations, good job he had Uroghide behind him or he would have got slaughtered, Sinclair would have ripped him to bits Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Somni Jennings Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Given the covid and current financial situations, while I agree Reach is likely a little better, but is also earning probably 5 times more at least. Pending the new contract offerings to Reach and Penney (if one is offered), personally I'd rather we lined up next season with Penney in the team and another step towards sustainable bank accounts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reach is poor off the ball and has a wide turning circle. Too easy to beat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shetland Owl Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Not sure he gives us enough cover but his crosses are getting better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salmonbones Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I'm going against the grain here - but ultimately I think he has a position in centre midfield. Only just good enough defensively, but has a sweet foot. He also doesn't have to rush his game. I know i've just agreed with Jos saying this, but honestly I think it's his best position.
