If Pompey weren't so **** we and were in the same league they wouldn't even class this as a derby.
So its PFC's fault.
Personally just see it as another game of the season, amuses me to see them big it up though.
S******...
but seriously, great away performance against a decent hard working team with a decent home record.
Be nice to get two league wins in a row...
Drogba is a free agent isn't he?
Can't see us splashing cash this Jan, maybe sign a player whose contract is running out in the summer for cheap like Austin last year.
If we were getting smashed week in and out I would agree, this season so far has been all about fine margins.
It will change (I hope)...I've not lost faith just yet. Koeman had a massive funk last year...it happens.
I may have misheard/not remembered correctly due to the intake of Rum, but a stat mentioned at the time of the game was FF had basically a clean sheet every 2 games...if true - not a bad stat for a ****e keeper.
A number of good European teams have the same model as us to produce & sell good players and reinvest in players with potential, and most of them get regular European footie at the same time. Its nothing new.
