@pfczak: Played surprisingly well, I thought Marquis and Jacobs were standout. Still would feel more comfortable with Rasmus than Raggett.

Tends to take too many touches. But he’s still a great addition to Pompey

@benf1503: Great win well done, lads!

@BoxingFanatic_: Jacobs looks quality. The missing piece from last season.

Going to get better and better too I reckon. Imagine him and Thompson playing together.
