    I'd be happy with this. Would have been happy if he wanted to stay. 

    He had a good season but I will always point out that a keeper should save at least one penalty from 4/5 per season.

    Not a bad review at all and I've seen a lot of Pompey fans gutted to see him go, think we've bagged ourselves a good un here

    So in short, we have lost a goalkeeper who some on CL thought was quite good but we have probably signed a replacement  keeper who some people on CL think is quite good.

    Or to use a much needed house buying analogy,  we have moved from one suburban semi detached bungalow with a small garden to another in a nearby street but still don't have a roof or windows.


    Jeez, your glass isn’t even quarter full!

    So for me we still need:

    First Teamers:
    LCB
    CM
    LM
    RM
    FW

    Sub/back up:
    RB
    LB
    RCB
    LCB
    CM
    LM
    RM

    won't be bothered too much if some of the back ups are from the U23's

    Go and read some Pomepy fan views. 

    It seems we've gone from:

     a house that everyone agreed had some good features, but everyone was critical of the transport links and had quite a long snagging list 

    to 

     a house that the previous owners clearly loved, has a couple of the snagging issues, but majority of features are an improvement, if you believe the old owners of course.

    When players leave, do they have a collection, sign a card and go down the pub? 🤔

    Disagree for the 1st XI we need

    RB
    LCB
    LB
    2 CMs
    A Winger

    Back up

    RCB needs to be good because he will play
    CM
    Winger
    Cover for Stockley

    Then probably a back up keeper to let AMB go out on loan.

    I'd be delighted if it's Tucker. Just 21 as well. Great investment.

    #Pompey player of the year Craig MacGillivray has passed his medical and signed for Charlton Athletic #cafc
    disappointed with amos leaving, but this removes all that. Would be a great signing and statement of intent. Definitely need to start getting a lot of signings through the door before pre season.

    If we sign both Tucker and Famewo I'd be amazed. Would be setup very well at CB with Pearce and Inniss already in the building and Barker hopefully getting a bit more game time.

    I think that the "Norwich lad" is the winger.

    Addick59 means there is a Centre Half in the building today. And its only his guess its Tucker.

    I highly doubt one of Tucker or Famewo would move or that Innis would be happy to be at Charlton in L1 to fight out a CB slot.

    When fit, Innis is 100% first choice above those two. If Innis wasn't injury prone I have no doubt he'd be in a Championship side challenging the top 6. The only fight would be with his own body to stay fit.

    Can we assume that we'll be bringing in another keeper during the summer too in order to allow AMB to go out on loan?  I can't imagine we've brought in the pompey keeper to be the reserve keeper for him

    Yeah it's Lee Power................

    Sorry I misread it but I think we are signing a Norwich winger on loan.  Not Famewo.  I would be delighted to be wrong or even better we get both :smile:

    So Tucker - young player of the year and Macgillivray - player of the season. Exactly the type of signings we should be after. Very good start if we sign them alongside Stockley

    Competition for your place is something you should relish. In any case CB’s get a lot of opportunities due to suspensions. That’s an occupational hazard. Pearce knows he’s back up. It would be up to the other three to make sure that they were first choice.

    I’d be very happy IF we manage to get Tucker. Very good player and lots of potential. Plus he’s a local lad from my home town. I would imagine the attraction of a bigger club than Gillingham and staying close to home would help signing him.

    I’ll be very surprised if we don’t bring in a good RCB and a good LCB. Can’t rely on Pearce too much and Inniss needs strong competition (especially important given his injury record).
