No thanks. Not sure where the nostalgia for slightly better than average loanees comes from. At the back we've got virtually 2 players for every position and if it came to it would rather we have our own youngsters experience than somebody else's

Yeah centre half ha our strongest area of cover its idiotic to suggest we should waste money on him.
Id like him back, but as already mentioned in not sure he'd come to play second fiddle to Ricketts and Johnson. And whilst he looked reasonably comfortable at RB, we're already playing a make shift RB in Willis, so I dont think it would make sense to bring in another to do the same thing. If RB is an area Mowbray wishes to improve, i would expect him to bring in a natural RB, not a make shift.
Pennington looked a very good player at centre half for us for the most part. At full back he looked rather lost..Reasonably comfortable at RB? He was dire. Agree with your point though, if we bring in a RB it should be their natural position.

I think we've got enough cover at CB. Ricketts and Johnson won't play every game of season though. Problem will be If they both get injured at same time then Pennington as emergency loan would be good shout.
P.s The big wasps logo near main entrance annoys me, also the fact that their badge is larger in the ground than ours. Also their bus which is used as shuttle to ricoh. But except for that...
Dire is a bit harsh. Richard Duffy was dire, and he wasn't on level with him
And we signed him on loan 67 times.
We are still a defender short. If ricketts plays right back then Penn can be centre back. We need one backup for each member of the back 4, at the moment we only have 3. Willis is no right back, would prefer Penn there with Aaron as reserve, Willis and Martin as backup CBs.
Ricketts had been superb at CB, knocking on 34 won't have the legs to play fullback any more.
We have
RB: Phillips, Willis, Kelly-Evans, Ricketts
CB: Ricketts, Johnson, Martin, Willis, Harries
LB: Stokes, Haynes, Ricketts and at a push Phillips.
If we're going to bring in another player to play rightback, we should bring a a specialist right back not a centre back like Pennington just to play him out of position. Pennington was poor at rightback then a revelation at centre back and we all hammered Pressley for bringing him in and playing him out of position.

Another thing if Everton loan Pennington out they will expect him to play and not warm the substitute bench up, i think he will go elsewhere, as stupot said if we could get him permenant, cheap, i would snap their hands off but he would cost a packet
Don't see the point, get strikers.
