I'm not saying we don't need better but he gets constantly singled out no matter how he plays.
He's a defensive FB, not an attacking WB which was needed today. He did ok playing a role that he isn't cut out for.

Really boring game, only bright points were Harry's goal and we have 9 players to come in and make the team stronger.

Surely if the managers playing him in that role you have to trust Conte judgement to do so and therefore for Royal to return the loyalty and or for him to develop that area of his game?

It was boring at both ends though, and after the last two games quite happy to accept that.
Not surprising given the level of English CB that has done well there recently.

They could have a tasty bench too by then.

Skipp and Emerson were unlucky not to score. It was noticeable that Skipp was asked to get forward at every opportunity, not sure that's really his game.

I could have won the Euromillions by then too

It's amazing how things pan out and perceptions change.
Reading the above about tasty benches having Sarr, Gil and Skipp on the bench when Benta and Kulu and richy come back suddenly looks very strong after a weeks football and then with hopefully added bodies we have a strong second half of the season

Gil and Sarr were the bright points today
Negatives: Sess again quiet even against league 1 opposition, Tanganga still demonstrating the lack of any footballing intelligence and knowledge of when to challenge and when not to despite inferior opposition. Disappointing that Son still doesnt look himself (could it really be the mask?)
Hopefully we'll have most of our players back in 1-2 weeks and maybe a signing or two to help out too

I was surprised by the number of police present at the match, many in full body armour.

Let's be fair, he's looked a shadow of himself since well before the mask.

8,800 Pompey fans, got a rep as a bit of a moody bunch

It’s a glaring weakness in our team, Doherty is marginally better and Perisic is finding some form now, but the system rely’s soo much on these guys performing and I’d rate us about 4/10 in that department this season.

Haven't watched today's game yet but I'm hyped for him long term. I think he is going to be quite a playerhe he has everything for the CM role.

Don't understand the negativity around skipp, he wasn't great with the ball but was good off it.
Just back from injury, playing alongside a new partner, new player on his right and a make shift defence behind him, what were we expecting?
Two games, two clean sheets, when was the last time we could say that.
Really think that we have a quietly effective performer in him and a star in sarr, great combination.

Yes, I agree. Bound to be rusty
Conte doesnt rotate much anyway and his 1st choice pairing will be PEH/Benta so not sure Skipp will get the chance to get match fit soon

I like seeing him pushing forward into the box today with a bit more luck and composure he could have had a goal, he needs a bit of game time to get up to speed, our wingbacks were ineffective taking too many touches and not looking for 1-2s, instead of bring pace to the game they slowed it down. I just cant see Sessesgnon ever making it, he's too timid in attack and defence
