I would have thought that £1.5 million is about right for Curtis, a lot of potential but with a difficult temperament, whether he can be ‘trained on’ is the question prospective buyers will be asking themselves.
The Eisners have stated time and time again that Pompey can only eat what they kill, Eisner has no intention of using any of his $3.2 fortune on buying players for Portsmouth FC., hence we need to sell to buy (but plus, I trust, a kitty of £2 million or so from Season Ticket sales, Sponsorship and the like).
Just as important, he will almost certainly look to recover with all speed any extra funds over budget he has put in to support Pompey through Covid, might mean a very lean year in terms of transfer funds and salaries.
So important that The Cowleys are as good at ‘adding value’ when it comes to strengthening the team as they claim. No more Marquis, Morris, Cannon type transfers and frees that are not worth their salaries.
Going to be difficult for them if we are always shopping in the bargain basement, sure there are some uncut diamonds down there.....but there’s even more rubbish and not too many non-league players make an impact on the first team in their first year.
Tougher League 1 next season, we need to be better than recent seasons to mount a serious challenge, I hope we are not in for a two year promotion project from The Cowleys, fours years in L1 has been too long, the fifth will be grim unless we are in a really challenging position.
