It just highlights the need for 2nd string games. The only real conclusion you can get from it is that these players obviously don’t play week in, week out.

He didn’t take his chance though.

Don't you have to be a category one academy to play in that ?

It looks like we need 3-4 players to help us push on for auto promotion.
First is an experienced CH likely to be on loan, another striker with Yengi away in Jan, midfielder/left winger, goalkeeper.
Hopefully, our Billionaire owner will mgive RH a decent budget to make these new recruits.
Let's Not mess it up as in previous seasons.

As posted earlier I don't want 3 or 4 .. that would risk upsetting the balance of what is a happy dressing room at the moment.
A right centre half cover for Raggett is all we need unless anyone else leaves. Ogilvie, Lowery, Anjorin & Scully returning will be like three or four signings, and Whyte coming into form would be a fifth.
Signing more players and making more players unhappy to be out of the squad would be this seasons way of messing it up.

Why do we need more than one centre back ... who needs more than 4 of them ?
And we didn't need anohter striker when Yengi was out injured for longer than he will be away so why the urgency there ?
We need to learn our lessons from previous January windows and accept that good players being available is very rare.

We are top of the league.
How would you propose to entice new recruits, that are good enough, to come to Pompey and sit on the bench?
