Well so long as midfielder’s are getting forward in numbers then there isn’t a lot of difference and from the look of Powell’s goal he was pushing up with others too which is great whatevers on paper.
Pompey fans did say Cook had a different approach in home and away games.
It was worth it to give him a run out. He had a couple of good balls to run on to but other than that he was feeding off scraps. Maybe this was because Blackpool were by far the better side and our midfield were pushed deeper I don’t know but they were not coming forward in numbers to support and assist Grigg.

We pumped several high balls to him in the first half when he was against two 6ft defenders. What’s the point in that?
No point indeed. Now if Bogle or the one we’ve borrowed off Newcastle had been on they could have nodded the ball down to Grigg but they weren’t.
Pleased for the two midfielders who got up to score though.
I wonder what style we will use on Sunday when the first team are back.
