I’m with Pangus on our strikers and he sums up my feelings very well
Apart from a couple of short lived ‘Purple Patches ‘ Marquis has generally been a disappointment at Pompey (although success enough at Doncaster to persuade Jackett to pay £ 1+ Million for him).
Harrison has never been prolific (although he did score a hat-trick for Bristol against Dorchester Town), Ipswich did indeed pay £750K for him, gave him 17 games (in which he scored once) and then sold him on to Pompey for £410K. He has hardly been a scoring success for us.
Marquis and Harrison work very hard for the team (last night was a good example) but they both miss too many half chances, Marquis especially).
Should we get promoted this season as we all hope, I can’t see either Marquis or Harrison being able to measure up to the demands of Championship football.
