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.

Starting to think rumour mills just know we need a winger so are linking us with anyone even vaguely plausible.

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

I agree. He’d be good enough I think. We can differ on that opinion.

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.

Frustrating thing is if we’d had one of the few penalties given he might have been back on a run by now.

Really? He looks decent if a little ‘raw’. Would be a good option on the left.

Has been a real disappointment at Pompey and can’t get in the team with Murphy back to fitness.

Very lightweight.

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!

I was just about to say the same. Had a great all round game Thursday and is the inform striker. Add Saka and EMC and he should get better service as well

Point being we didnt need him prior to him being signed elsewhere. I dont think we need him now either personally.

Evidently their manager doesn’t fancy him. Great in short bursts but can go missing for large parts of the game. To be fair he is only 19 !

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
