    on the left he does.

      I know what Kewell is capable of, also know what Pennant is capable of, and with the exception of stevie of the right, IMO Pennant is the best option we have there. Kewell on the right would be mainly restricted to coming inside and playing infield anyway as he is a left footer.
      Pennant cuts inside a lot during the games and Rafa moves him to the left sometimes so there is really not any difference.
      Just believe and you never know what will happen.

      According to Benitez it's important not simply to go out to win but to go out prepared to win, which means players have to put in the same level of work on a daily basis. Anything else is unacceptable.

        there is, he is more effective on the right, it is his natural side, much the same as kewell on the left. Im not saying that either man cant put in a performance on the opposite flank, but the fact remains that pennant is better on the right than Kewell and Kewell better on the left than Pennant. Which was the reply to your earlier post that Kewell is more effective than Pennant on the right.

          Pennant cuts in a lot less than you make out to be honest. His biggest flaw for me is his unwillingness to go to the byeline.

          Out of interest where are you getting teh assists stat from? I'm very wary of assists stats as they are always a judgment call and obviously also partly a reflection of the forwards playing with them as well as the wingers worth.
