The Blues face an interesting summer with 9-10 new arrivals expected during the transfer window and the rumour mill already in full swing regarding potential incomings.
With that in mind, we have put together a possible starting line-up for next season, with some of the names mentioned.

17. Substitute 5 - Aaron Nemane
The chances of the Notts County winger coming to Fratton Park next season are remote. However, there's a good chance he would make the bench if the rumour that surfaced this week proved to be correct. Doubt he'd start if Whyte and Agyei both arrived this summer. Photo: Laurence Griffiths

18. Substitute 6 - Sam Smith
John Mousinho has already said he wouldn't expect Sam Smith to join Pompey knowing that he'd be playing second fiddle behind Colby Bishop. Pompey have expressed an interest in the out-of-contract Cambridge man but expect him to move elsewhere. Photo: Pete Norton

19. Substitute 7 - Paddy Lane
The January signing was starting to find his confidence in a Pompey shirt as the 2022-23 season drew to a close. He'd need to build on that form, though, if he's to establish himself as a Blues regular following the conclusion of the transfer window, with so many new arrivals expected. Photo: Jason Brown
