    Today Portsmouth were a very shall we say very physical. Both full backs got booked and again they got a let off. Not the first time this season as well.

    A team like west ham or Southampton would have isolated them and got the second booking. Need to be more ruthless

    Two or three times today their defenders had two hands wrapped around our players necks in the area. How we didn't get penalties, I'll never know. But it seems to me that we take it. If you're getting manhandled, show the ref you are.

    Agree with all you've said,but Ben Haim is a first class left back,the pulling and tugging is only part of his game,he's very difficult to beat at anytime.
