They've absolutely got to work on crosses and dead ball situations. How many times in the last two games have we failed to beat the first man or ballooned it over the bar? Only Jacobs put in a couple of decent ones and he wasn't on the pitch long.
Anyway, as there's not much to comment match-wise this week, here's an Ex-Pompey active players XI. I think all have played Championship or above. Anyone change someone? Subs?
Begovic
Joel Ward Adam Webster Matt Clarke Enda Stevens
Jed Wallace Marlon Pack Kal Naismith
Conor Chaplin Michael Smith Jamal Lowe
Matt Ritchie on the bench.
Npt a bad team that, dsmg. 442 Take out Smith, put Matt Richie into midfield, jobs a goodn
Add Nathan Thompson & Jason Pearce on the bench
Who would be the manager though?

Take out Smith?
Why?
Becsuse i thnk Richie is a better player than smudge. I also prefer 442 to 433. Kills 2 birds with one stone with my solution.
Ex-managers. Mmmm, El Tel (is he still alive?), Redknapp (that'll piss off a few), Whitts!!! Love him.
Begovic
Ward, Webster, Clarke, Stevens
Pack ?
Ritchie Wallace Lowe
smith
Can’t really think of another central midfielder unless we count loans then it would be Ben Thompson
Tom Naylor. Played Champ for Burton Alb.
In for who, Forever? Or on the bench? Burgess for defensive back-up
Only bench at best!! Just a name I thought of who had played champ football... in a relegated team!!

I thought we were looking for players that played at champ or prem level AFTER leaving us ?
So we'll be abe to add Whatmough & Naylor to the list next season.
Luke Varney is another
and Jermaine Defoe ?
and is David Nugent still playing ?
Webster's being tipped for an England call up.
if nugent is still hauling himself about, wonder if he fancies a last season in the 3rd tier?
Newcastle interested in Webster, and to think some posters on this site thought he was awful.
