    Out of interest what would you do in a work scenario? Turn down a pay rise? Retire with bills still to pay? Im not sure why footballers should operate under different standards we wouldnt do ourselves

    What’s happening with Gareth Evans? I was expecting bigger things from him and thought he’d hit the ground running.

    Not sure he's 100% fit yet or should I say I hope that's the case, he should be having more influence on games he's played.

    He reminds me of the last time he was here unfortunately. I hope he proves me wrong and he’ll have more of an input going forward.

    JL has been with City for approaching one and a half seasons, yet you can count on the fingers of one hand the number of league appearances, have a spare digit and discount your thumb! So the fact that you have not seen enough of him, must be due to a reason? At the age of 25, you would expect to be making more appearances than that, especially in a squad with only 17 other ‘senior’ professionals.

    I always though he looked quite quick but not the most gifted on the ball.

    To be fair to him he is coming back from injuries and appeared to be working his socks off yesterday. I think his influence could be a key asset.

    Yes nothing seemed to come off for him last time but I’m hoping we get the Pompey version and not the Mark I version.

    He came to us as a striker but he was much better on the wing he used to get some decent crosses in

    I've quit jobs I clearly can't do because I'd have ended up getting sacked anyway. He's also spent his entire career on a shitload more money than I could ever dream of, so I find being asked to have sympathy for the financial situation of someone who earns in a week what I would in a month a bit ridiculous. we all have bills to pay and loads of us manage it just fine without being professional footballers.
