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

could be a Yasin Ayari situation, didn’t look up to it with us then went back to Brighton as a starter and looked decent when I saw him play

managers always want more players, doesn't mean the player is worth the money they want and i'm not sure he is worth the rumoured wages

If Haji is off, don't worry. I see two options and they'll have been lined up. I don't believe that Frank hasn't seen what many here can and hasn't considered bringing in a new striker. Honestly, I think Ellis is off in the summer too. Neither are good enough in my opinion.

Option 1: we are about to spend a huge amount on a young striker, probably not from a UK club unless it's a Premiership player who cannot get a game. By huge I mean trouncing our transfer record fee.

Option 2: we are going to borrow a proven championship striker, with a view to option 1 in the summer.

We just don't do second rate any more. Everything is planned for an upward trajectory and growth in value. Relax.

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 !
Click to expand...
Yeah, Murphy’s their best player for sure. He wouldn’t replace EMC. We could have him coming on in short bursts…we could be just like Pompey.

Hang on a minute…

We need to remember players need time to get up to speed and learn our style. Its not going to be a hit the ground running job even if they are a Haji replacement

Hasn’t Haji just got a new agent? I didn’t think there was a chance we were selling him but these two things seem to be more than a coincidence.

Having said that, I did accidentally start following all 26 of Dua Lipa’s fan pages so I know first hand how you can accidentally click follow without realising.

What were seeing is that they either should be playing alongside each other,or interchange every time the cease scoring.

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.

Or possibly switch in game to a more central role.

It really isn't, the manager knew of something no doubt about it,Haji hasn't signed his extension) improved contract,we could have let him have a time to gather himself if needed.

off topic slightly, but following this post, was there a thread recently about missing regular posters?

I haven’t heard from Martin180 and note he’s no longer on here, @RegiswasGod I think you know him well, all ok?

Polite request...
Can posters name the player they are discussing rather than use the ambiguous pronoun, "he", please.

Sarcastic remark...
Not everyone is on here 24/7 or has time to scroll back several pages to work out who is being discussed.

Social commentary ...
It's the modern world. Confusion is clicks.

Yeah, i shared this. Was some chatter in the lounge before the Bristol match iirc. I did say take it with a pinch of salt though, i don't know the two guys who were talking about it. They seemed pretty adamant that we had made an enquiry and that it made sense because apparently he has a good relationship with Lampard.

Maybe Bamford told Wilder I've been offered a contract by Frank. Maybe Frank said I'd like to sign you but, anyway good luck.

Anyway you are assuming Bamford would have scored the goals he has scored at Sheffield United for us.

Didn’t Wilder say that Cov hadn’t signed Bamford because we planned to invest significantly in the window …. In other words we are targeting better than Bamford.
