Highlights

  • Portsmouth's strong start to the season puts them in a prime position to end their 12-year absence from English football's second tier.
  • Several players at Portsmouth, including Denver Hume and Zak Swanson, may benefit from temporary loan moves to gain more playing time and showcase their skills.
  • Young defender Brian Quarm, at just 17 years old, would likely struggle to find playing time and could benefit from a move to a lower league to enhance his defensive abilities.
