I mean, this is one below the Premier League.

Of course, you're going to come up against good players.

And sometimes you're going to come up against players who have not really been on the radar very much.

And I suppose it's what Pompey are looking for, isn't it?

Everybody would love Pompey in January to sign a sort of left-field choice from somewhere, spend a bit of money on someone,

who perhaps has done well in another league or at a good level in this country and if it's someone who can score goals if it's someone who can come straight into a championship and score goals like the guy at Derby has all the better so yeah I suppose in every team that we're going to play and that we have played so far there's a danger man isn't there it's working out who that is

And also making sure that you don't put so much into stopping the in-form player that you then let a couple of out-of-form players have too much space and play their way back into form.

So, yeah, Derby away, it'll be a challenge.

We had a nightmare there last year, didn't we?

So we'll be looking to avoid similar this season.

It'll be a hard game.

They are, actually.

We've had to mix and match, really, haven't we?

Ogilvie was the man that left back and doing OK until he got injured.

And since then, we've seen...

Williams a couple of times haven't we but Swanson at left back at the moment is actually he's playing like he's played there a long time isn't he you know given that that's his wrong side he's not letting that phase him at all he looks quite at home there his defending is ok occasionally I think he maybe lets his man he gives his man a bit too much space to run at him and you worry about whether that's going to end in a

him getting into a good area and getting a dangerous cross in once or twice it has but generally Swanson's defending his own

And he does like to get forward, doesn't he?

He was involved in the equaliser, wasn't he?

It was a little pass from him out to Murphy, before Murphy went on and crossed.
