Pennant - Should I Stay or Should I Go?


Portsmouth's on-loan winger Jermaine Pennant will be return to Liverpool when his contract runs out at the end of the season, but will he be staying at Liverpool?

Pennant is also out of contract at Liverpool at the end of the season, and is yet to be offered a new deal. But can we tempt him to stay at Pompey?

Despite him not starting all the time and the position we have been in, fighting for relegation, he may like to stay at Fratton Park, because he now knows the staff, knows some of the players, and will always get a good reaction from the Fratton Faithful.

I'm not sure how high his wages will be, but if we can keep Johnson as well, a right side of Johnson and Pennant would be a killer for crossing balls in for Crouch, as long as we can find the big man a strike partner.

Pennant's old club Birmingham City have also been promoted to the Premiership through the automatic promotion places, so that would also be an option for him.

I personally think he won't stay at Liverpool, or if they will even offer him a new contract, because of the lack of appearances, but whether we can tempt him to Fratton Park or not is a different issue.
