Summer 2018 Transfer Window

[Nymzee]

I rather play Schneiderlin there than Pennington, if needed.

Do you not know how short we are in central midfield?

Pennington is not PL standard.

Fit CB's: Holgate, Zouma, Penno, Browning, Galloway.

God help we don't get a long-term injury tomorrow. Who knows when any of the others are back.

...Pennington looks so poor at this level, though, that a makeshift option could probably be just as effective. Jagielka is apparently 3 weeks away and Mina starts training after the international break. I think it’s a risk worth taking.

 

[Nyhus]

Giving Pennington that new contract is the weirdest football decision Ive ever seen.

 

[Moomin]

Look at the foreign fans sticking the boot into a local lad who plays for Everton.

I expect this type of behaviour from RAWK, not so called Evertonians

..I think it happened during the transition from Walsh to Brands, so I imagine it was agreed before Walsh was sacked.

Or it just guarantees a few in the future?

..as I posted earlier, i’m not surprised in the least if this happens. I know we are a bit thin on the ground at this moment in time but i’m not convinced Pennington is any better than chucking Kenny in there. Still amazed at the decision to give Pennington a 3 year deal.

There's always the possibility of Gibson or Feeney being brought into the first team squad in an emergency. Would be a gamble of course, bit you'd think Brands and Silva would have accounted for that before Pennington was allowed to leave.

God help us if we had to play Pennington

Brands has done a remarkable job getting rid ( if only on a temporary basis ) of so much dross

How does anyone get credit for giving players away?

Two we've got money in for out of 17 departures.
