v Portsmouth (a) - 13/12/25

[chaddyrovers]

Tronstad and TGH should have been on before they scored. 

Ismael need to make a quadruple sub on. 

De Neve, Cantwell, Tavares and Morishita off

Pickering, Tronstad, Baradji and TGH on

[Wing Wizard Windy Miller]

Gudjonsen is an absolute passenger up front. 

[Hasta]

Needed a left back there.

[simongarnerisgod]

no point in bring sonny on the trip if you ar`nt going to put him on

[Roverthechimp]

Great ball in but Yuri and De Neve were both close enough to have done more to stop it

Pretty much how he rolls every game.

Be nice if the club selected personnel for the betterment of the team rather than for financial reasons. Harry Pickering must be pulling his hair out.

Any chance of getting an equaliser or more likely to concede another?

It's the LCB's job that - that's why you have three of them.

More likely to concede right now

[davulsukur]

Finally making some changes. 

TGH and Baradji on.

More likely to concede. Struggling to get up the pitch.

They're on top right now, so more likely to concede again.

Pompey well on top but Valerian has just made a couple of subs in the midfield. His subs normally make things worse, fingers crossed that's not today!

You can tell he's absolutely bemused at how little protection he gets from refs.

He's improved as the season has gone on, but he's really struggling with the physicality of the league.

Cracking cross from Murphy, can’t help but feel it’s another goal conceded from De Neve losing his man - though I need to see the replay 

DeNeve needs to be dropped completely from the match day squads. He has a terrible habit of recovering 80% of the way then slowing just before getting goal side. He’s a terrible defender and provides nearly nothing going forward.

I think Morishita at LWB in Hedges absence would be a better option than De Neve. De Neve is playing at least one division above his level.

Hopefully Hedges is back soon.

he`s got no defensive nous at all.you can`t carry on at this level without at least being able to mark someone

[Bohinen1983]

Anyone see the afters from Tavares a few mins ago..   I'd rather see some passion tbf

[davulsukur]

Fuck off

We're in serious trouble.

[London blue]

I've never seen anything more predictable. We are fucked. 

[sharpysharps86]

Oh dear oh dear
