August Look for Portsmouth

August 9, 2013 - Tickets for Mike Blackwell's first match in League 2 as head football manager have not been selling like Board Members had foolishly hoped, but there is an air of excitement around Fratton Park. It's a spark of interest as Pompey has come of it's surprising friendly campaign.

As of late in the day on Tuesday, three new signings had arrived. Of those three, two look to be immediate starters on the squad. Including Gutierrez, a signing at Center Back a few weeks ago, it does look as if Blackwell is bolstering talent at each position.

For the last friendly match at Fratton Park, Blackwell did switch back to his traditional 4-1-2-1-2 formation which he was known to have legitimized in his time as an assistant in the MLS at Vancouver. Never-the-less, this is the expected strategy for the start of the 2013-2014 campaign.

Predicted Starting 11:
GK - John Sullivan
RB - Yassin Moutaouakil
CB - Bondz N'Gala
CB - Luis Alberto Gutierrez
LB - Marcos Painter
CDM - Johannes Ertl
CAM - Aaron Clapham
LM - Andy Barcham
ST - Patrick Agyemang
ST - Marwan Mohsen
