The Cat

I have a season ticket, of course I watched it.

How? They had 1 shot on target. Again, a save is stopping a shot going into the net. That is the definition. They had 1 shot on target, therefore he made 1 good save. Basic maths. The rest of the good stuff he did wasn't making saves. He had a good game, we all saw it, the manager praised him in the interview. Do you have nothing better to do than being a twat on a football forum?

There were interviews after he signed where he said stuff about Leeds showing how much they wanted him which is shorthand for offered more money, because no player ever comes out and explicitly says that.

Was surprised that their away support wasn't more rowdy. I expected more from them to be honest. Our support was flat. Not even the usual 57 songs about Pompey. That "10 more years in League 1" song is shit, especially as they will get promoted this season.

The opposition then have to attack more and commit extra players forward which creates gaps in the midfield for our players to exploit, as in the second half when Alcaraz was excellent. First half while it was 0-0 they packed the midfield and there was no space for us to pass through. We didn't go direct at times like we have in parts of other games because they had huge defenders and we have no height up front. Therefore we ended up passing it around in front of their midfield wall trying to draw them out. To their credit they were very well organised in defence and did what they wanted to do perfectly until Walker Peters scored.

Technically correct. A save is stopping a shot on target. I don't recall another one. What's your point?

Meanwhile what? You may as well mention every player who scored yesterday. Not sure how many times it needs to be said but he obviously went to Leeds because THEY OFFERED HIM MORE MONEY. This isn't FIFA or Football Manager, you can't just sign who you want.

Keep reading we could have been 2 down at half time, but we really should have been 1-0 up before that when Sulemana got through and shot weakly straight at the keeper. If that goes in the whole game is different, but as normal his shooting was abysmal. This guy should be tearing up this league but is unbelievably frustrating to watch.

There was a cross from Adam Armstrong near the end of the first half which flew straight across the 6 yard box which is the type you'd hope he'd get on the end of. Adams meanwhile stood there on his heels with zero anticipation and watched as the ball went to the exact place he should have been moving to.

Would like to see a replay of their guy attempting an overhead kick in the second half. Everyone around us was pissing themselves laughing.

Good second half, cracking goal.

Yes, because they have no direct effect on English football.

Their owners, sports washing, they love a number 9, the media love in.

Good, fuck them. Hope they lose to AC Milan and go out.

Swindon have the most mental games

PSG such a funny team. Barely anyone cares who wins the league in France and they'll never win the Champions League despite spending insane amounts of money.

Who are his favourites? Top scorer Adam Armstrong? Recently dropped Ryan Manning?

It was either 95 or 96. I know post is slow sometimes but it's not that slow. Just to let you know I won't be replying to any of your posts from now on as you are living in a PO postcode. I recommend everyone else follows suit.

I temped in a Royal Mail sorting office when I was at Uni, anything going to Portsmouth automatically went second class.

Edozie scored for the U20's against Germany today in a 3-2 win

A cheeky bid for David Alaba to solve our left back issues?

I quite like looking at the games between smaller countries. Samoa beat American Somoa 10-0 today. Didn't even realise England were playing until I looked at Flashscore.

Last time I was there I went to Huddersfield v Palace with a Palace mate the day before the we played Wigan in the 1/4 final. Possibly the 2 coldest games of football I've ever been to. Huddersfield is a decent town, loads of great pubs near each other. Very cheap as well.
