Pennington sounds a good loan to me 14:44 - Aug 31 with 1526 views | Bluefish | Pretty sure he scored 2 on his Everton debut?? He makes sense that he will be fighting for a place opposed to expecting to walk in. This means Toto can come back. He is also a young player but with some experience. | |

Pennington sounds a good loan to me on 14:55 - Aug 31 with 1487 views | Currie10 | Apparently he cannot defend set pieces, and was at Leeds when their season completely collapsed last season. It's a no from me - but I'd love to be proved wrong and him do very well for us. | | | |

Agreed. Not what i was hoping for either and to be honest, it feels like he was far down the pecking order too... | |

We need experience there at the moment. Too many soft goals conceded. I'd have a liked a more experienced pro to come in rather than more youth. We have a lot of that already. This is the only signing i have some conjecture with and given it's 2 hours before the deadline and 4 other targets have failed. I think it's fair... | |

This. That leaves us with a wobbly Chambers this season, Nsiela currently out, Knudsen as a makeshift, Everton loanee and Woolfenden. Sorry, but to me that doesn't appear a solid enough set of options at CB. Coupled with the other end, are we going to get enough goals!? Time will tell, but hoped for a lot more. Oh - and should he sign we're back to 6 loanees! Who is going to be the 2018 Massimo Luango!? Ridiculous. | | | |

I loved the look of Tilt from what i saw in the highlight's reel. Looks a real decent defender and would have provided competition. I don't se it with Pennington. When Nsiala is back, the back 4 picks itself whereas midfield and upfront has tonnes of options. I'm not too adverse to the number of loanees but this doesn't feel like the right one. | |

I would say it seems donacien will be sorted soon if not 1 becomes squad cover for a day much like others in the squad. An experienced cb on loan means Toto misses out or we drop the captain. This way they can compete amongst the 3 of them plus cover in Spence Jonas and wolfie We have looked solid at the back this season apart from set pieces and deflections. Chambers is our best defender for defending set pieces and He is the one you presumably propose to swap. If you want experience to make us solid from set pieces it makes more sense to drop nsialsa and then we are slow at the back from open play. Pennington is young but strong | |

Experienced at QPR, full of mercenaries that don't perform on the pitch | |

Too many things don't make sense here... Signing an experienced centre back doesn't automatically guarantee them a game or mean Chambers / Nsiala have to make way, they're there to provide stiff competition and give us something different when needed. Solid at the back apart from set-pieces isn't really solid though is it? A lot of set-pieces have been given away needlessly. More experience in the side will mitigate against this. Is Pennington one to command Chalobah in front of him? Not really. Why does experience have to be slow? Des Walker was pretty rapid well into his 30s. | |

Des walker was also very expensive and playing in the top flight. | |
