Is Thomas a constant threat? He gets in good positions but so far has failed to make use of it
JCH & Chaplin are ok I feel JCH is playing well tonight & Saturday we have no creativity and I don’t know know why Thomas is a constant threat Bayliss is box to box centre mid hopefully Jones on the left left will bring us more creativity
We had plenty of possession, just in not very dangerous areas. I don't think they had loads of chances but we had just the one and once again wasted it. I don't think we'll be in a relegation fight but we are shocking up front. Some of the new players need to be given a few games to get up to speed, such as Agogo. It's hard to see where the goals will come from even with everybody fit.
Wow Mr negativity himself telling people to piss off.Oh piss off
I think we’re missing grimmer and mason 2 full backs who can bomb on and join attacksWe don’t move the ball forward quickly enough and always look to involve Doyle, the whole side is short on goals and unless we change something it will be a long hard season
Fuck me. On tonight's showing, we're miles away.Robins “we aren’t too far away. Just a little bit stuttery”
I agree played well wheh he came onJordan Thomson excellent imo
Should doesn't mean anything though does it?How people can think we’re what off is beyond me.Beat Barnsley drew with Sunderland who we should of beat and matched Pompey tonight fine margins JCH score the 1 on 1 it could of been very different same as chaplin missing his 1 on 1 last sat...
McNulty I feel buries both of them 1 on 1s
No technically it don’t nick BUT Chaplin should of put the 1 on 1 awayShould doesn't mean anything though does it?
Looked good physical presence. Nervy in possession I'd say. Hard to judge too much.Jordan Thomson excellent imo

Their centre halves didn’t break sweat however, perfect away setupPortsmouth were nothing special. It's sad when your centre backs are by far your best players at home. We need to get Doyle off every dead ball and get a bit of fire into our team, they spend half the game trying to make friends with the opposition. Players need to have a pop at goal, so little confidence.
Exactly this, stifled our play all night and restricted any attacks we had although I think we made it way too easy for themI thought Portsmouth were very clever tonight: contained and controlled us easily. We had the majority of play but apart from the hesitation that led to the JCH chance they didn’t give us anything. Their centre half Motm for me. I thought Willis and sterling were pretty good and burge and the rest of defence didn’t have much to do second half. We have to create more otherwise we are going to get a lot of 1-0 defeats or 0-0 draws.

Doyle isn't babysitting anyone, it's a myth. He's not controlling anyone - watch him. All he does is bollock other people's bad passes and then proceed to hoof it out for a goal kick himself. He's on borrowed time because he's no longer leading by example.Our attack is very poor, but it's made even worse with our midfield behind them.
Shipley, Thomas, Doyle, and Bayliss are all underperforming for what is required at this level.
The passing and creation is sub-par from every single one of them. I would say in fairness to Doyle, it's hard to see how effective he can be at this level when he's babysitting the others, but equally that doesn't excuse him taking all the set pieces and doing them badly. Have we got no one better?
The defence and (for all his fairly warranted stick) Burge are the only reason we are not currently in the relegation zone.
JCH and Chaplin might work, but the whole midfield needs dismantling for me. I'd probably drop at least 2 or 3 of them from tonight going forwards.
Would be interested to know which of those were Robin's signings.So 11 games in which of Robin’s signings to turn us into a good League 1 side have been successful so far? Brandon Mason at a push?
I said after 4 games mason was the pick...So 11 games in which of Robin’s signings to turn us into a good League 1 side have been successful so far? Brandon Mason at a push?
In that context, the quote from Robins during the Chaplin saga was interesting.Would be interested to know which of those were Robin's signings.
