Do you agree with how Blues writer Jordan Cross rates the performances of John Mousinho’s squad, as he pause for the international break?
5. Josh Knight - 7
Early days for the Hannover 96 signing, but has showcased a Championship competency in three starts in eight days before the international break. Eye-catching ability to step out with the ball - and outstanding in the second half against Middlesbrough last week. Photo: Graham Hunt
6. Regan Poole - 8
Back to his Pompey best - and that's saying something given his early League One levels, after arriving in League One. A born fighter, competitor and leader and central to his side's best moments this season. No one has performed better. Photo: Graham Hunt
7. Conor Shaughnessy - 7
Another performing back at his best levels this term, so a gut-wrenching blow to be hit with a serious hamstring injury against Sheffield Wednesday. One of Pompey's best players, no doubt, but has to shake the injury question marks continuing to hang over him. Photo: Graham Hunt
8. Marlon Pack - 7
Has waited for his minutes, stayed ready and then showed what he's still capable of when given his chance as one of Pompey's best performers. Ludicrous to ever dismiss Pack's value, as he continues to prove his importance to this group - on and off the pitch. Photo: Graham Hunt
