Gary O'Neil and Benjani?

[pfcsteve72]

I'd like to see Adebayo Akinfenwa at FP, a Yakubu type player with pace and power, not sure about my midfielder, i'll have to ponder that one.

Check out the PFA list of available players, not many if any to wet my appetite. So unless their from abroad I'm guessing their be loan players. - view external link (http://www.thepfa.com/transferlist)

Attacking midfielder Micheal Laudrup's looking for a job. I'm sure he could still do a better job than some of our players he may be a bit slow but certainly knew how to pass a ball and it would be a nice feeling to see a player older than me in the team, It would make me feel young again.

I thought that we brought in two strikers in the window... aren't they any good then !:?
Also shipped out our quality striker on loan :blue: :blue:
After the last few games we certainly need some attacking ideas in midfield, would have thought judicious use of Jed would have solved that one.
The squad is getting too big, I hope we aren't heading towards quantity over quality.

Is this a joke??????????????


We've just brought in 2 strikers who are currently **** .

The reason for this is easy, they never get the ****ing ball!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 decent midfielders is a priority. Not ****ing strikers ffs!!

Sometimes i wonder how the **** these people get these jobs!!! :/ :/ >:(

Given that we have 17 league games to play I would love to have seen us sign 2 midfielders and 1 striker. Big Pat can't play 90 minutes, I agree with another poster in that he is a shadow of his former self. If one striker gets an injury or suspension we are cooked. As for the midfield Padovani and Ferry obviously have fitness issues. Racon after the game at Oxford not for me. At home play Shorey at left back or not at all. So 2 and 1 for me if we could afford it of course, which I doubt. After Saturday many will say 6 aren't enough :blue:

Thank you LDB. I was wondering if it was just me that had noticed how UNFIT our squad look. They are not sharp, they are not fast, they think very slowly. Only a few can head the ball, only a few are ambipedestrian, only a few know how to think ahead and move into space.

All could do with stamina training over two hours and backwards speed running - or whatever the technical term is for this skill - and timing their jumps to head the ball as it arrives not as it is going past them. Perhaps they should watch some old man Utd movies with Law, Best and Charlton and Billy Folkes in defence and was it Aston on the other wing and Paddy Crerand in midfield with tackling by Nobby Stiles amongst others.

Or ones with Charlie Cooke and Bobby Tambling on their runs, Johnny Haynes in Midfield with Bobby Moore, etc. Watching or reading about Newcastle's 13 - 0 demolition of Newport County in '46/7 with the legendary Len Shackleton scoring 6 might be an education in itself for some of our lads.

Ah

Think we all long for that Mike..sick of all the gloom going on at Pompey lately..sick of all the negativity and moaners...I,m not saying people aren't entitled to their opinion but we are what we are..a second rate league two club..The wins will come soon I'm sure of it..
