5. LB - Lee Brown
The vice-skipper extended his stay this summer after some uncertainty over his future. Will be out to prove a point to fans after coming in for flak from some last term. Photo: Joe Pepler
6. DM - Tom Naylor
Very much remains captain despite being omitted from both play-off games against Oxford. Always gives his all and set to play a crucial role this term. Photo: Joe Pepler
7. DM - Bryn Morris
The ex-Middlesbrough man has turned around his fortunes at Fratton Park. After not playing for 14 months due to an abdomen injury, he was given a shock recall for the play-offs. Starting against Norwich under-23s and has been catching the eye in training. Photo: Joe Pepler
8. RW - Ryan Williams
A decent first season back on the south coast for the Aussie last term. He was injured during pre-season last summer so he will be aiming to hit the ground running this campaign. Photo: Joe Pepler
