John Mousinho’s squad is now assembled for the months ahead, after another busy summer of activity.
With 11 new faces through the door the Pompey boss has 33 players to call upon, comprising his 25-man squad and eight contracted under-21 players.
With only 20 players able to be named as a matchday squad, that means the Blues boss has some big calls to make over team selection - starting in the south-coast derby against Southampton next week.
Pompey writer Jordan Cross has weighed up Mousinho’s options and given his strongest Blues line-up, which means some interesting decisions and significant names being left in the stands.

13. Sub 1: Josef Bursik
Josef Bursik has added quality to the goalkeeping department and looks likely to assume the back-up role to Nico Schmid. | Portsmouth FC

15. Sub 3: Josh Knight
Pompey paid around £1m for the defender and he's clearly here to play. Suspicion is he ends up in the starting XI with everyone fit, but Poole and Shaughnessy rightly hold possession of the shirts at present. | Portsmouth FC

16. Sub 4: Marlon Pack
Fighting back from injury but, whether starting or on the bench, the skipper is a key part of the identity of this group. | Simon Roe Photo: Simon Roe
