The defender has vowed to sit through 90 minutes of Sunday's X-rated debacle at Stamford Bridge.

It will probably be best witnessed from behind the sofa, after the Blues fell to a woeful 4-0 defeat against Luiz Felipe Scolari's (right) big guns.

But Distin is ready for what is certain to be unpleasant and uncomfortable viewing.

Harry Redknapp's side have become synonymous with defensive resilience over the past two seasons.

That went out of the window in their Premier League opener, though.
It may have been out of character, but the goals were sloppy to say the least.

Pompey set a high standard when it comes to their defensive organisation, so to see runners not being tracked, poor marking, a lack of communication and weak clearances was galling stuff.

Distin has now promised to sit through it all again in a bid to get to the bottom of why it happened.

The 30-year-old regularly watches and analyses his and his team's performances.
And he insisted it will be no different after the Chelsea thrashing, despite it being painful stuff to watch.

Distin said: 'I watch a video after every single game.
'Everyone is different and does different things.

'But I watch the video because that is what I like to do.
'I always want to learn where things went wrong and where we can improve.

'Then we might have a meeting with the team.
'You have to analyse it and then draw a line under what happened.

'You have to learn from it, then move on and start afresh.'
There is going to be no let-up for Pompey after facing the might of Chelsea.

It's the small matter of the Premier League champions next as
Manchester United visit on Monday night.

It couldn't be any harder for Redknapp's men, but Distin is demanding a suitable response after the weekend display.

The former Manchester City man has been heartened by recent efforts against United.

Pompey can look to their FA Cup success last season for cause for optimism.
And Distin feels his team matched Pompey in the Community Shield, before losing on penalties.

He is placing little stock in the 2-1 pre-season defeat in Nigeria.
Distin wants to see Pompey right the wrongs of the Chelsea thrashing – regardless of how tough the task is.

He said: 'Manchester United is a tough match to respond with.
'Over the last two big games against them, it works out a goal victory to us in playing time.

'It is difficult to react after conceding four goals, but we have to.
'It's a long season. We have to forget about Chelsea and react.'
