00:00Basically, this is a position where Pompey have Conor Ogilvie, who signed New Deal in the summer,
00:06and they've got Jacob Fowler, who's out for the season.
00:09So, they're the future as well as the present.
00:13And Pompey don't need at the moment to sign a first-choice left-back.
00:19It's not a priority. We'll talk about the priorities in a minute.
00:22It's just a case of having cover-scope competition for Conor Ogilvie for the remainder of the season.
00:30And that's where Bramall fits in, doesn't it?
00:33Because Pompey cannot go through the remainder of the season with one left-back.
00:37There's nobody else who can play there. I've seen people saying Matt Ritchie can play there.
00:40Well, Pompey aren't getting all the wingers at the moment, let alone playing Matt Ritchie there.
00:45And again, you can moan about, oh, why is Marlon Pack playing the centre-half?
00:50Well, Matt Ritchie's not a left-back, is he?
00:52So, that's the issue there. Bramall is designed to provide competition and cover.
00:58It's as simple as that.
