That would make a change after the last decade.
You do know this is the cursed position for Cafc, even before Wiggins and Page got crocked. Can he play some games before we go OTT.
I wish Matt Penney luck as he will need it.
I can stop doing my Left footed Left back mantra now. (Hopefully 🤞)
When you said the next couple of years and not the next couple of games I must've realized it was a joke but the opportunity to go in studs high like Ryan Inniss after a first poor touch got the better of me. 🤦🏻♂️
Sorry mate.
Now what ever happened to that other young Left footed Left back we had 🤔
Jacob Roddy!

As expected just from looking at him and hearing him talk - smart price Andy Robertson of LiverpoolScoham said:He’s an attacking left back, not a Purrington style steady Eddie.
From the video below he likes to get forward and isn’t afraid to shoot from range.
An Ipswich fan said he’s not the best defender but good when freed up to attack.

A what? Since when did they exist?Callumcafc said:A left footed left back.1 - 
            
I did say I hope it works out and he is a good player however due to the level of dross we have and have signed in recent times I will reserve my judgment until he has played ten games.JamesSeed said:eaststandmike said:“Top flight in Scotland”
So he has league two experience then.
Welcome Matt, I hope it works out for you
Always look on the bright side of life…oohaahmortimer said:Ipswich payback for us taking Herman Hreidarsson, Matt Holland , Darren Bent … here you go have this crock of guff Charlton
He may not be the messiah, but he is a left footed full back 👍1 - 
            The position we have needed filling since opening day of the season. We have tried Clayden, Chin and Clare who have all shown they aren’t sufficient replacement for when Sess can’t play.20 game audition for him to see whether he worth offering a permanent contract at the end of the season.6

I kinda share your concern, especially when Motherwell seemed keen to extend. But it may be that - and I’m serious - Ipswich dont see us as “rivals” this season.Algarveaddick said:Never sure when a team in the same league as you (Premier big guns aside) is happy to let a player go out on loan to a "rival".

            Seems more of a wing back from what I can gather from Motherwell fans comments and utube.Maybe we will be moving to a 3-5-2?0
 - 
            Strong, reasonably quick and has a good driven shot.
I cannot see this as a bad signing on the evidence.6 - 
            
Hence my quotation marks mate, I am not sure either...PragueAddick said:

Why would you be okay with a steady Eddie on the left but presumably not on the right? Both are equally important surely?!Richard J said:I am happy we have got a 'steady Eddie' type left back and look forward to seeing Sess on his natural right side. In some ways I would still like another naturally left footed player to ensure competition. But I guess beggars can't be choosers.
He played in Town's 4-0 demolition of us on the last day of the season and they brought in both Davis and Greg Leigh in the summer. I am hoping like George Dobson being ditched by Sunderland that this will be a fresh start for him
I’m left footed so am possibly being overly sensitive…0 -

I'm sure we're aiming for the top six. We might not make it, or we might lose in the playoffs as in 17/18, but I'm not giving up on the season with 4 months to go.ElfsborgAddick said:

He won't be able to play against his parent club presumably. If Ipswich end up in the playoffs I can see them crashing in the semis anywayFortune 82nd Minute said:Hope there's no clause in the loan saying we can't play him when we meet Ipswich in the play-off final!15 - 
            
Think this is a really good post.Carter said:What we have to have is senior professionals in the squad. It isn't fair on the youth players to keep launching them in and expecting them to have the rough edges knocked off like a player with experience.
I know nothing about him as a player but given he isn't afraid to travel to play games that tells me he has a strong character and a desire to play football. We often sign players who give me the opposite vibe, players who need everything in their favour to declare themselves fit for selection. Hope he does well for usDelighted to get someone in to fill a weak area, just concerned with Sess’s issue we’ll see even less of him in the run in as I think he’s one of our better players3 - 
            What is this heresy a "left back"?!? Welcome addition, proper balance and has been playing.
Also good that we're getting our summer business done nice and early 😅1 -

Why would Ipswich be worried? The fact is we were probably willing to pay a higher loan fee than Motherwerwell or anyone else interested. And from an opposition point of view we have to play Ipswich's rivals and there is probably a clause he can't play against us as well.Covered End said:

            Looks like he has good energy and make’s positive decisions. Welcome Matt.(see what I did there)2

            Motherwell fan I asked: 'probably our player of the season so far but question marks ovwr him actually being able to defend'0
 - 
            He won't be any worse in the defensive sense than any option we have at LB aside from Sess (who sounds like another in the Innis/Aneke/Ledley King play and manage minutes game, sadly).2

No problem:
1st half
We will play 3-5-2 and play Penney as a Left wing back(poor man's Luke Shaw) and Deano tells him to stay forward and combine with CBT or Rak Sakyi. Dobson and O'Connell will cover the left side.
2nd Half:
Matt Penney injured in the dressing room at HT after Ryan Inniss stands on his toe so Cafc revert to 4-3-3 without the injured Stephen Sessegnon, Jacob Roddy take over the LB role.
Must get a new Crystal ball this one is Charltonised 😱5 -

Do you know who you are talking to ?
That's oohaahmortimer who is the most consistent poster on CL.
He once made MR Motivater languid and Joe Wicks give up on doing exercise.
I agree I don't want Oohaah doing the cafc team talk but at least he doesn't set the bar too high; so low a limbo dancer can't get under it.
But he's one of our own ☹️2 - 
            Penney signs for Two Bob Sandgaard
Just joking. Looks alright to me.1 - 
            in for a Penney, in for a £ .. welcome Matt and all the very best during your time as an Addick1
