Pamplemousse

The usual trolls are out in force. It's best not to bite, just ignore derry and saint lard, they're trying to wind you up.

I think there are more positives than negatives to take from this match, particularly the second half. Cedric was awful, midfield improved when Hojbjerg came on and Pied looked lively. Austin should've come on earlier.

It'll be interesting to see how we do on Friday against a team who doesn't park the bus.

Pied did more when he came on than Cedric in the entire match, who had an absolute shocker

I'd put Austin on. We lack a focal point up front. Hojberg on too. We improved as the game went on, hopefully we can pull it back. To be fair, Watford have defended very well so far.

I agree, I look at the side and I'm feeling positive. If it doesn't work then moan after the match but the team is being written off before we've even started

Their big money signing Success is out injured

There are two kick off times - one at 6pm and the other at 8.05pm, and they have multiple channels so there is no excuse not to.

Below Three Leagues

I can't understand what he is saying when he is speaking English. He should stick to speaking in French because I would much easily get what he is saying.

Is there necessarily any correlation to more away fans = a home defeat for us? The club will make more money by selling food/drink in the concourses, the city's economy will benefit by more people visiting, it's a good thing and hopefully other clubs will do the same.

Lol at twitter, of course after the third Coventry goal, they all now 'don't care' about this 'pointless cup'

Apparently there was a bit of an argument between the player fouled and the main penalty taker, as the player who was fouled wanted to take the penalty himself. Good to see that the training camp in Ireland did wonders for team harmony.

Pompey in front, thanks to a dodgy penalty. Looks like the referee is on their side.

No excuses not to win this match, there's no crowd to be intimidated by

I can't imagine Pochettino will be too happy with this.

Very fair and balanced article, although I look forward to a certain Mr Samuel's take, we all know he is the oracle.

The cup games are the only matches where I want Pompey to win, so we get the chance to knock them out. It's now 11 years and counting since we last beat them and that is unacceptable.

Presumably Watford have sold out their end?

Our tickets were given out free to illegal immigrants and we were playing crowd noise over the tannoy system.

I don't think we'll win, I think a draw is realistic. 0-0 or 1-1. I don't expect there to be many goals.

I'm sure the Northam will have no problem reminding him when they visit SMS

If Fonte goes, I will leave the country. He isn't going, relax people.
