Winks refused to move from London or stay at the team hotel the night before a home game so Horsehead dropped him. Not the type of attitude that fits our all in it together we currently have.
To be fair wasn't his wife about to give birth at anytime?

We don't need just cover, we need options of an equivalent standard to our first 11
I’d say we need additional quality players. We’re not going to be signing someone to replace EMC are we? However, getting someone who can play well when he needs a rest/to come off makes sense to me ie cover.

Have you seen much of him? I’ve seen him a bit...not a lot but my Pompey folks rate him. While he didn’t do anything against us he’s well capable of moments of magic.

If we had him as cover on the left and Esse on the right I’d be happy enough.
We need automatic quality to get us over the line

Searched on Google and Real Madrid had a bid rejected for him yesterday?

Starting to think rumour mills just know we need a winger so are linking us with anyone even vaguely plausible.
Exactly my feeling. 2 plus 2 makes 5. Its names being dropped due to fitting a positional need.

But its ok, the site is supposed to be for exactly what we see. Just got to take it for what it is. Let be honest none of us have a fucking idea what Doug is upto and never have been. We know when things are done not when things are being worked on.

That’s fine but if Haji goes before we have a replacement then Simms is our only fit striker.
A short term Paddy Bamford deal not looking so silly now is it?

...you just don't drop people who are scoring goals. it's kind of the whole point of the game, isn't it.

If you take a very narrow view of how you run a successful football club and team. Thankfully you’re not in charge.

The guy that has scored 5 in 10 whilst Wright has scored 0 in 12? Yeah, silly to have a striker that scores goals in the squad!

...you're missing the point, apparently.

And before he signed for them he hadnt played or scored for months and Wright had scored 8 in 12. Whats your point?

Point being we didnt need him prior to him being signed elsewhere. I dont think we need him now either personally.
Well the fact we had hardly any forwards suggests he would have added vlaue

Have heard Yang Min-hyeok from Spurs (on loan at Portsmouth) is another potential arrival.
Hope not. I live in Hampshire and work with loads of Pompey fans.
Generally speaking, they don’t rate him.
That could simply be that he is not cut out for a championship relegation fight as opposed to ability

How were we meant to know at the time? I'm glad we didn't sign him
well through the hours we watched him train i imagine. there’s a reason Lampard wanted to sign him
