Re: Pompey vs Lincoln
Another excellent win. Like the look of Hirst, big strong pacey ft man. Looks so dangerous. Well done DC & the team.

Re: Pompey vs Lincoln
I think a lot has to do with Marquis being out. The players seem hungrier and a lot more confident. Plus we've sorted out the centre of defence at last and we're looking much more solid there. I'm delighted with the performances recently, confidence threat and workrate is much higher than a month ago.

Re: Pompey vs Lincoln
I think it's a combination of factors:
The players seen to know what is expected of them, and how to play it now... And the confidence is flowing.
What caused is who knows - maybe they had a heart to heart after the Ipswich game and called a few things out.
Curtis certainly seems to have a bit more fight about him again

Re: Pompey vs Lincoln
you mean the centre of defence that contains the left back from gillingham that cant play centre back very well??Betelgeuse wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 8:49 am I think a lot has to do with Marquis being out.

Re: Pompey vs Lincoln
Terrific performance but Lincoln are at best an average side with a choice players missing making them have to play a young inexperienced lad up front, so we should not get too carried away. However, you can only beat what is in front of you!
A lot is being made of Hirst's performance but, for me, he is a long way short of what we need. Marquis is continually given a hard time by fans and his finishing has not been good enough. However, do I think he or Hirst would score more over the course of a season, personally, I think it would be Marquis. Who brings more to the team overall. I guess its Hirst's areal ability and runs versus Maquis workrate and closing down, so not much in it. A close call, but overall, my opinion is that Cowley will go with Marquis once fit.
