STEVE; POMPEY TURNING THE CORNER?

I've got to get your thoughts about the latest that we know on the January transfer window.

STEVE; POMPEY TURNING THE CORNER?

We've been buying players from abroad, such as Australia, Austria, Hungary, and borrowing players from English clubs.

Do you think that's going to continue?

Or since there is a spoken need, by John Massino says, to have possibly six loan players on our books at the end of January, do you think we might expand our loan activities to international players?

MURPHY "BEST CROSSER IN THE WORLD"

I always think, and I wonder if you agree, that one of the most insightful football crowd chants of all time is Terry Devlin, he plays where he wants.

Because it's fun, of course.

It praises one of our players, of course.

But also, I think it shows an insight into, and I don't mean to be patronising when I say this, I think it shows the fans' insight into the way John Massino likes to set up a team with as many players in as many appropriate positions as possible, able to adapt during the course of the game and play where they are needed.

and recognise when to change or adjust their positioning skills and senses so that they go from being a right-back to being a right-sided midfield player or, if necessary, shoring up the two central defenders if you're a full-back like Terry Devlin.

He doesn't just play where he wants, he plays where he's needed

And he's quietly attracting attention.

So we'd better just keep an eye on him and make sure that he's happy.
