Steve Bone

Yes.

Where he started really well.

He did.

He was getting on the ball, he was beating his man, he was getting a couple of crosses in, and the team as a whole were playing well throughout that first half against QPR.

And he then faded, the team faded, he didn't last the 90 minutes.

And there haven't been too many occasions where he's lasted 90 minutes and you've wanted him to because he's playing well.

So the talent has come as sort of shown through in fits and starts I think with him.

I think most fans would say we need to you know we do need and especially now that Yang's gone.

Yes, you can give Blair more games and you can have him around and have him in the squad and have him on the bench, but we need another wide man to come in this month who is going to have a bit of an impact and is going to just give us something we haven't already got.

Arsenal.

Well, Arsenal, I don't think it is going to be over by the time 90 minutes are up.

Okay.

I think Arsenal are going to play a reserve team.

I don't think there'll be too many first-team regulars, if any, in their XI.

And I think Pompey will be up for it.

They lost 5-0 at Bristol City last time out.

So they need to show something after that.

And after these bad away performances, I know it's going to be 10 days between the two, but it's still the last time we saw Pompey.

And generally they come good after a performance like that.

And I think we might give Arsenal a run for their money, but I also can foresee eventual defeat, possibly on penalties, because no replays, is there?
