He forced the goalkeeper into a great save tbf but yes we do need to try and offload him
He forced the goalkeeper into a great save tbf but yes we do need to try and offload himI felt it was totally the wrong call yesterday, we were sluggish and needed some speed injected, take Allen off of course, but at that stage I would have let Tavares have a run out, not Waghorn, with the turning speed of a brontasaurus
That's it reallyHasn't he been saying he needs pretty much guaranteed first team football?
And don't forget the save the keeper made when it came off his back from the defenders clearance, I actually said to my mate, that's two shots on target for the WagsHe forced the goalkeeper into a great save tbf but yes we do need to try and offload him
The thinking was probably to get experienced players on to avoid a thrashingI felt it was totally the wrong call yesterday, we were sluggish and needed some speed injected, take Allen off of course, but at that stage I would have let Tavares have a run out, not Waghorn, with the turning speed of a brontasaurus

Not what I'd have done but Robins knows more than me

That's it really
At his stage of his career he wants to be playing even if it's at a lower level
If Waghorn was to leave we are left with Victor (expected to leave), Walker (struggling in league one) and Godden (injured more than he’s fit). Would we then need to bring in 2/3 more strikers?
If Waghorn goes out on loan we’ll still be paying a percentage of his wages anyway. Id keep him
But yeah for the rest of this season I'd much rather see Tavares getting minutes than Waghorn, particularly if the latter is leaving at the end of the season.
I guess the plan is to keep Gyokeres and if necessary sell Hamer and o hare. Walker will have to see his contract out but may come good
You can’t call JCS and Maartsen a mixed bag. Both very good players. I’d take JCS on a free and Maartsen back on loan in a heart beat. Bright was a gamble as cover for OHare but it didn’t come off …. Waggy was a strange signing at the time and hasn’t got the legs for our type of footballPeople talk about the January window and SISU not investing, but our summer transfer window wasn't really sharp enough. Players like Waghorn and Bright have been a major let down. The two Chelsea loanees a mixed bag too.
Hope so.Please let it be true!
@Skybluebeliever hinted that Waghorn could go out loan next seasonIf he’s prepared to take a wage cut that would be a big bonus
Was quite a unique cameo from Waghorn yesterday.
Had that one excellent effort which, lets be honest, nobody else in our squad could pull off & also played one exquisite ball over the top for Gyok that he really should have done better with. That's coupled with a couple of really loose touches & even fouling Gyökeres at one point!
What I see is a technically very capable player who has completely lost his way after injury/illness & no doubt now unhappy with his situation.
It doesn't look like it's going to work out for him here but fair play to him if he's going to push for a move, he's a good honest pro who wants to play. Many others would just down tools & happily pick up a wage to do nothing.

I think the penalty miss at Barnsley was a turning point for Vic and WaghornWas quite a unique cameo from Waghorn yesterday.

Walker did not get on again yesterday for Pompey for the third game in a row. I’m not sure where he goes from hereI guess the plan is to keep Gyokeres and if necessary sell Hamer and o hare. Walker will have to see his contract out but may come good

The loan out was to get him scoring goals at a lower level with a manager he knows to get a good fee in the summer rather than him being in the plans I think, unfortunately it’s been a disaster both clubs.I honestly see a good goal scorer in him, and would happily see him back in the-fold, but the club clearly need to work on his confidence.

ironically that penalty miss and subsequent loss is the game I’m eyeing up that cost us the play offs.I think the penalty miss at Barnsley was a turning point for Vic and Waghorn
If Waghorn had taken it and scored who knows but Vic missing seemed to make him better , the next game against Blackpool he was immense and carried it on
If that volley goes in the top corner we're probably all saying today 'what a wonderful finish, that's what he's capable of, maybe he's worth keeping next season'
Small margins!

Not really. I thought he was a good signing but he’s been a total dud
The Chelsea loanees have been qualityPeople talk about the January window and SISU not investing, but our summer transfer window wasn't really sharp enough. Players like Waghorn and Bright have been a major let down. The two Chelsea loanees a mixed bag too.
