Jordan James

We're going to go on to injuries in a little bit.

But Jordan James was the man who replaced him with Marshall Manetti keeping his place in the side.

Mateus Mane still on the bench.

And by the way, I thought made another good impact on the bench.

Yeah, 18 changes in the last four games.

So in terms of continuity, it's very difficult to get something like that when you've got basically, I'm not saying strange on the pitch, obviously they're there at Compton Park each week, but at the same time, when you play midweek to midweek, there's not a lot of time on the training pitch.

Then you add international breaks to that and you add, like I say, people who have not played together before, Jordan James, Rafiki Saeed, you know these guys who are who are still looking and finding that finding the feet is it there are disjointed displays sometimes or like I said they're not finishing teams off or scoring enough goals at this moment in time but can you understand that to a certain extent because of that because we're not playing like you know Nuno's obviously the fantastic team but you could name you 11 it was it was 11 of 12 every single week wasn't it so if and when they get back to that and look they keep picking up injuries and it's one we have to look into I think we'll do a little bit more in depth on Thursday because Peixoto and I think a lot of people are coming out saying about his training sessions and maybe he needs to change that maybe adapt it because they are picking up a hell of a lot of injuries but do they just need to get people fit and get an 11 or 12 who are playing week in week out for us to see the best on the pitch

Yeah, but Pachotto has to take some of the blame for that lack of consistency.

Not been a great week for him in nets for Portsmouth.

Let Jordan James' shot in at the near post, which I think he should have saved in midweek, and then just passed the ball straight to Jenson Metcalf, who then just stroked it into the net to put Millwall ahead.

So having to come from behind, Segacic's wide free kick hit Lyndon Dykson went in, and the winning goal scored by Thomas Waddingham, another Aussie.

Again, some fortune in this.

But yeah, in regards to the Portsmouth game, I agree, it was frustrating.

I think there were... strange decisions like the mascara up front decision you know is something that you would see a proper dinosaur type manager pull off you know you're chasing a gang i think i've seen it at walls maybe sort of 10 15 years ago i think we had danny barb front for a little bit when you're chasing a football match but um yeah i've not seen seen that for for a while but think it summed it up as well but i mentioned this on my reaction i think where i think jordan james played a great ball through this is that 1-1 and it's it falls to mascara because it's a defender the touch is so loose i think anybody else whether it's someone like adam armstrong was fit and playing that game smarter touch you get the shot away chances are you go out you go and win that football match

Was that the one where he got in the way of Lopez? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Then he

went wide of the goal.

So, yeah, it was one of those frustrating things.

But the one thing that I think he did do, Harry, because he didn't start the game, Jordan James came on.

I know we had quite a bit of discussion about this last week.

As you said, was it 16 attempts they had? And we've only got one goal out of it.

Another player who was influential in that first half was Jordan James.

Again, I know you said towards the start of the season he needs to start and I think today's proved why he does need to start because he kept winning the ball in those areas, pushing forward.

He had the strength and physicality as well in the game.

Hayden, we'll start with yourself.

When Pompey went 1-0 down, through Jordan James' opener, what was going through your mind at the time?

I think I've been so many away, you've all been so many away games, you go one of them down and you feel like, oh, you're feeling the worst.

And it just felt as if, particularly in that first half, I mean, the ground felt so quiet and there were lots of empty seats, partly, of course, in fact, obviously, Wolves having just come down from a nearly decade spell in the Premier League, the football they were playing, There were many chants of sideways and backwards everywhere we go from the Wolves fans.

So, like you say, getting a point in the morning, you think, at the start of the season, I still think they'll be up there.

At the start of the season, we'd have took getting a point there and we will now i think tomorrow given the fact we did double over millwall last season and how well they ended up doing last season i think that's the sort of game we need to look at like yeah we can get three points on this one not being too like

aggressively confident i'm i'm quite excited for tomorrow yeah why not um let's go to the goal that opened the scoring on tuesday night tom jordan james on the 62nd minute right for this strike Kind of went underneath Nicholas Schmidt at the near post, being played through by Fer Lopez, incredibly talented footballer, is the Wolves' top goal scorer.

He got the assist on Tuesday night for Jordan James, opening goal.
