People calling for Igor off, wind it in please he's done little wrong. It wasn't his fault Cullen cannoned the ball off the Back of his head, also not his fault Cullen spooned his touch and turn wide... That should have been Igor's opportunity to shoot.
Decent 45. We look so much classier than them with Sarr, Bielik, WIlliams and Aribo playing the ball around brilliantly. Unfortunately we've let them go in level, but we've not made enough clear-cut chances regardless. Taylor's looked ok with the ball deeper but clueless when he has to look up. Igor needs to run in behind in order to make an impact. Pompey definitely look like conceding from a set piece so we could do with putting one of those away. If Pompey come out second half playing the same then we should have enough to finish them, but I doubt they will. We'll need to be ready for them to hit us second half
Outplayed them great skills and goal from Aribo, Beilik different class, Purrington a bit better going forward assist for our goal, then switches off at a corner. jumps like Gladstone Small and they get an undeserved equaliser . Just have to go and do it all again 2nd half COYRS.
Edit; Correction Cullen with the assist not Purrington
First time I have seen us play all season. Very impressive barring us somehow being level. Playing some lovely stuff without creating loads. Bielik looks a premier league player. So comfortable on the ball
We just can't hold a lead. All that hard work undone, just like that. That, plus Vetokele getting in the way of Cullen's 'goal' earlier on. I would change Vetokele for Parker. The rest looks ok but we do need to learn how to hold a lead. Pretty pathetic that actually.
We've played well, Pompey haven't really been in it.
Deserved lead for us, totally undeserved equaliser for them.
Bielik and Cullen stand-outs for me, Sarr and BFG solid in defence. Aribo and Williams have done plenty of good work too, Joe took his goal well.
Taylor and Igor seem off-key up front, Djiksteel and Purrington steady but not great at full-back..
Dillon not had much to do, didn't seem to stand much of a chance with their goal, a close-range header.
Need more of the same play from us in the second half but with a better end product! A draw wouldn't be disastrous but would, however, be a wasted opportunity.
Charlton better team all half. Impressive build up play & midfield looking very good. Bielik very good. Not much understanding or link up between Taylor & Vetekele. Great goal Aribo. Should have gone in a deserved one goal up. Sucker punch at the end. First attempt on target. In the build up Sarr out of position up front & this led to the corner. Really poor marking from the defence & Purrington in particular. Hoping Charlton can pass to the same excellent level in the second half.
You lot are mental. It's official. Vetokele can not be blamed for that block he even tried to move out of the path of least resistance for the 'strikers' shot.
Cullen hit it straight at him.
Subbing him will do us no favours. We'll just have two deep lying forwards if we bring Parker on...

100% defenders fault.

Purrington didn't even jump
I'm very aware I'm not as slick at doing it as @ross1 is!!
