Pompey thread

Still feel fantastic after that today, whole team performed today. Even first half both sides flashing the ball across the others penalty area. Good finish for Pompey goal and it started to feel like another one of them days as we wasted some good shooting opportunities. But then we got the own goal. A cross that beat the first man it seemed like for once! Second half carried on in same vane then Dion did excellently to score. Then stanley where all over Pompey with a good finish from Colby.
The whole team deserves credit for tea against an inform Portsmouth who gave us a good battle. We got the Clayton end rocking particularly second half. Fair play to Portsmouth fans kept singing and behaved themselves far better than Bolton and Blackpool. my man of match would be Dion Charles because I think he made the difference with the second goal but as I said I think everyone was at least 8 out of 10 today. After Bolton and today I have renewed hope for our season.

Finley and Seamus both seemed to toughen up a little bit in the second half, and look a bit more prepared to get a foot in. This wrestled control of the game in our favour, win some second balls, and launch our more free flowing passing game. Best performance I've seen in ages. Also definitely found our best strike partnership in a while.
 
Great team performance today, although tbh I was thinking Colby needed to be replaced in the first half as he didn't seem to be in the game at all but as he proved in the second 45 minutes, what do I know - well played lads :)
 
Conneely absolutely outstanding, put every ounce of his energy into the tackle.
Opoku is ridiculous, so calm and composed, literally walked past 3 Pompey players holding on to him.
Charles and Bishop magnificent, Bishop won everything in the air, Charles ran and ran and ran and ran.
Bursik very vocal, great stop at 1-1 different game if that goes in.
John Coleman really is a football genius.
We usually have a poor run over Christmas then dominate in new year into spring.
We’ve already had our poor run and it’s not yet Christmas.

Great post. Would add that I thought we pressed them really well and our tackling had real bite
 
Goalkeepers don't necessarily have to be in a game to have an effect.
It's about a back line having confidence with what's happening over their shoulders.
Also about communication.
You could see the whole back four were far more comfortable.
About time the lad was in.
Conneely another captains performance.

Like I said last week how much better Tranmere played when they changed their keeper. I also am not a Coneely fan but must say that's the best I have seen him play.
