Near-post Norris, who is genuinely a good goalkeeper against everyone apart from us, goes on a massive walkabout, TC beats him to the ball near the touchline and floats in a cross for for Ahadme to head into an empty net.  51'

Some lovely crosses coming in, Gas will dine out all day on those this season

God bless Norris' biscuit legs

I think that was more an issue of Norris' biscuit brain

Gasssss.

Surely TC has to start next weekz

His running off the shoulder has caused Pompey problems all afternoon.

Looking like a genius move to convert him into a forward

stonemuse

Yes pleased he got that

Josh Edwards taking on the Dobbo mantle of take no prisoners tackling there

Callumcafc

Lol Edwards snaps into a massive tackle and Nathan Jones celebrates it more than a goal

sam3110

Campbell has filled out a lot on his shoulders and chest. 

Been on the Chuks weights I reckon

Edwards will be a real fan's favourite this season

If we win the result is really important but if we end up losing them it's only a friendly and no points are at stake.
To be ready for Wigan and up to speed is paramount.

CAFCsayer

We look brilliant this half

Pompey haven't got a clue how to deal with us...one sided so much.

Callumcafc

You can tell the confidence is flowing. We’re playing the same good football but with 10x the authority now.

sam3110

Edwards cleaned out by Swanson there, retaliation for earlier I reckon

AdTheAddicK

Don't usually comment on match threads. We ain't far of peps 11-12 barca team 

KBslittlesis

I really hope Jones doesn’t muck around with the defense.
A clean sheet would be an enormous for confidence.

Do Coventry and docherty still need to be moved on?

"We're taking a free kick with the referee off the pitch"

"That's TEl's dream a game with no referrees"

CAFCsayer

We've gone from having zero decent left backs for a while to having Small and Edwards, who from what I've seen of both so far, would start for 90% of the teams in league 1

eastterrace6168

We are clearly glad to be back home on The Valley turf...confidence is flowing, if and when the changes come could be interesting...

Rothko

The post Wimbledon stuff has gone quiet 

Scoham

TC winning a header and Gas getting fouled, reverse of roles

sam3110

Gas wrangled down to the floor there, at least a yellow in a league game with VAR checking to see if he's last man in the Euros

Plus all the others that were not world beaters in the pre-season games 

FishCostaFortune

There defenders really don’t like comfortable deadline with Gassss 

CafcWest

Alfie….who….?

sam3110
