Two of the most talked about wingers since the January transfer window opened. Who will be a better buy?

Armed with the ability to send dangerous crosses into the box, the winger can be extremely useful when there is a big targetman at the top.

Pennant likes to run with the ball and often dribblesl all the way to the byline before chipping in a delightful ball for runners to finish the job.

The downside for both players is that neither one has performed on the big stage and we have all seen how some footballers crumbled under the intense scrutiny of playing for a big club.

So who do you think will be a better buy in the January transfer window. Downing or Pennant?
