Hide AdIt means the Blues completed or sanctioned 16 different deals over the transfer window, with eight new arrivals being matched by eight departures.
Rob Atkinson (loan), Isaac Hayden (loan), Thomas Waddingham, Hayden Matthews, Cohen Bramall, Adil Aouchiche (loan), Killip and Gordon (loan) are the new recruits that will hopefully help Pompey stay clear of the Championship relegation zone.
Meanwhile, the Blues will approach their remaining 16 games of the campaign without Elias Sorensen, Sammy Silvera, Tom Lowery, Ben Stevenson, Norris, McIntyre, Moxon and Scully.
It’s a lot to process. But the main question that follows all that is - will it be enough for Pompey to retain their Championship status?
