Boxing Day would have officially marked the mid-point of the league season for Pompey, before the scheduled clash with Oxford United was called off.
So it feels like the perfect time to assess who has been performing best for Danny Cowley’s squad this term
Taking the match ratings given to the players every week we have worked out each players’ average so far this term, to determine who has been doing best for their side.
To qualify, each player must have played a minimum five games, with the players who’ve featured most given the edge when average ratings are the same.
We have started with the lowest through to the highest, so get involved to see which players come out on top.
Designed with Pompey fans in mind
