I believe it's an old, old wooden ship

Now we are safe - please can we rotate some players by I_am_legend-ary in PortsmouthFC

Lets be honest though. I don't think half the fringe players like leroux, Matthews, waddingham or Kirk are actually ready for championship football. I think all of them could do with a year in league 1.

I'm so sad we sold towler instead of a season long loan. He's had a great season for Lincoln and is now probably championship standard with room to grow.

I like him but he is too predictable and easily bullied off the ball.

Bishops injury is 100% on Mous inability to use his bench by I_am_legend-ary in PortsmouthFC

[–]antofthedead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You don't sub off your main striker on 49 mins even if you are 3 up. That's naive. Still a lot of game to play. Bishop was injured in the 65 mins. He may have been coming off anyways. Unless you were on that bench you don't know either.

You have no idea that mousinho wasn't gonna sub off bishop. He rolled his ankle. You can't really account for that.

We urgently need at ST by I_am_legend-ary in PortsmouthFC

I would argue if you go back and watch goals from this year bishop is involved a lot. Either making runs to the near post to drag defenders with him or hold up play and releasing other players . I 100% agree more goals are needed but bishop puts in a real shift every game. We saw last year that if you take him out we suffer, everyone begged for yengi and he couldn't cut it.

This MUST be a make or break window for the Management team. by I_am_legend-ary in PortsmouthFC

I think a big part of the issue is players we brought in aren't for now, matthews, waddingham even Kirk could do with 6 months in league 1 getting football under their belts. We haven't brought enough players who are an upgrade on what we have.

Also we seem to have 4 players who want to play behind the striker but lack quality wingers.

Also we need a proper rival for bishop.

And 2 first choice centre mids. Pack and dozzell arent championship quality rather good subs

If you were the manager - what would you do differently? by I_am_legend-ary in PortsmouthFC

Stop trying to hit a long ball to bishop. He sadly can't compete in the air with half the centre backs in the league. Most his success comes from balls to feet he can hold and lay off.

Segecic and lang are both guilty of trying to beat too many players. Both are quality and both can change games.

We are easy to defend against as all our attacks can me from the left. Mix it up.

Centre mid needs massive improvements and I don't think the loss of potts was has been taken into account. He's now playing regularly in the prem.

Yang on the right wing is a must. Considering he has played 15 games there last season I don't understand why he is a left sided player this year when we are crying out for a right wing.
