Portsmouth Should Sign England Left Back
Jun 26th
Former Reading star and current Portsmouth midfielder Glen Little has told pal Nicky Shorey to leave the Championship and join his current team.
Little told the press – “Nicky is my best mate so of course I am going to say good things about him. But I would love to see him sign for Portsmouth as well – and they would also be getting a very good player.“He lives just round the corner from me on the outskirts of Reading and we are always going out together. We are always round each others’ houses and he was my room partner at Reading.
“I know a few of the Pompey players but it would be fantastic to have my best mate in the dressing room as well down here. I’d love it.
“Reading have already got the hump with me for leaving so I am not going to try to upset people saying he should go and sign for so and so. But at the end of the day I want what’s best for him and he should follow me down here.
“He wants to be in the Premier League; he’s an England player and has been the best left-back in the Championship for a number of years.
“Reading won’t want him to go on the cheap but it would be great if I could see more of him – so I want him to come to Portsmouth as well.”

Everton Should Look At Buying Rather Then Selling
Jun 26th
Wigan, Aston Villa and Sunderland have all of late been linked to making moves for Everton & England striker Andrew Johnson.
Everton currently only have four strikers, two of which are still teenagers and lacking experience at the highest level.
Should Everton really be looking at selling a striker such as Andrew Johnson rather then looking at adding another forward to their ranks?
The Merseyside club has already lost a number of first team players and have not yet completed any future deal for on loan midfielder Manuel Fernandes.
Everton continue to rubbish reports that the former Crystal Palace man is heading out of the exit door but could ‘Rumours’ about him being unsettled prove to be true?
