"It's great to see the amount of media attention since my arrival," Pennant, 33, said."I'm feeling a bit more pressure than I felt last week, but I believe I can deal with that. The feedback and support that I've been getting is fantastic, that's what I came here for.
"My teammates have made me feel very welcome and showed a lot of respect, so I'm going to give the same amount of respect for them.
"The keenness of the club was what really sealed it for me. They showed that they really wanted to move forward with the quality of their signings, so it's a no-brainer for me really.
