Marcus Harness 21:48 - Apr 7 with 2337 views | farkenhell | Thought Harness looked much more assured today than he has recently. I know he wasn't on the pitch for long, but he was the pick of the subs for me. |  | | |  |
Marcus Harness on 21:51 - Apr 7 with 2303 views | SlippinJimmyJuan | Very pleasing after looking like he had lost all confidence. Edwards looked a real handful too. |  |

Marcus Harness on 21:55 - Apr 7 with 2256 views | SuperKieranMcKenna | I thought the same. Might be in for a start Monday after Broadys knock, hope he’s not out for long he’s been incredible. |  | |  |
Marcus Harness on 21:56 - Apr 7 with 2250 views | Bugs | Completely agree. You could tell he was a player lacking confidence in pervious sub appearances in the last 10 + games. Today he looked good. Some really good touches and passes. |  | |  |
Marcus Harness on 21:58 - Apr 7 with 2237 views | Steve_M | Yep, I really wanted him to get a goal as finishing the season as he started it might make a difference. |  |

Marcus Harness on 08:05 - Apr 8 with 1848 views | SheffordBlue | Swapping the whole front line helped I think. In some of his other sub appearances he's ended up playing in 2 different positions with a variety of partners in a 15/20 minute period. Yesterday allowed him to settle better. |  |

Marcus Harness on 08:13 - Apr 8 with 1811 views | DJR | I thought he also did well in Bolton and Derby wins when he came on because he showed great composure on the ball. |  | |  |
Marcus Harness on 08:44 - Apr 8 with 1753 views | NthQldITFC | Me too. Definitely looked sharper and more confident with really good control. |  |

Was about to say this. He's going a job for us coming on. He's not explosive like Edward's, but his composure is allowing us to keep possession in their half and seems a reliable outlet late in the game. Hasn't been a massive attacking threat, but I don't think that is what is being asked of him when he comes on late. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

You summed up what I was trying to say perfectly. |  | |  |

Very likely he will be starting on Monday. |  | |  |
Marcus Harness on 09:26 - Apr 8 with 1621 views | Battersea_Blue | I'd really gone off Harness big time, for a good few months, but yesterday I thought he was superb when he came on. Well done to him and hope it gives him confidence going forward. I have a feeling we may need him, Broadhead probably needs a rest on Monday or he may seriously damage that ankle. Very surprised he stayed on so long yesterday. |  | |  |

Edwards has won a couple of penalties this season by running at defenders in the box. They are terrified of him. |  |

The best thing about Edwards is that he offers us something different - the ability to take on and beat players with trickery as well as pace. Opposition defenders must feel completely deflated when they see him coming on! |  | |  |

Not sure too much would be wrong with Broady, he looked in pain but after 5 mins he looked fine, pretty sure if was serious he wouldn’t been passing and moving like he was. |  |

Marcus Harness on 02:34 - Apr 9 with 1012 views | PioneerBlue | MH has had a difficult season, started on fire, picked up the injury, took time to rebuild fitness, and Broadhead has now come like a gift from the sky. If MH can have a strong finish that will be important for us. |  |

I feel like the subs have a better understanding of how to play together now, which might have an impact on how they're playing. They know their roles, I assume they train together in this group quite regularly. There's just no let up with this side now, some of that's confidence and fitness. It must be a nightmare for opposition! |  |

Marcus Harness on 20:24 - Apr 9 with 785 views | BigCommon | Worth noting, he came on and played more right hand side/central, rather than a straight swap for Broadhead on the left.... It's my understanding, that Harness preferred position is a CAM/ RAM, where he played the bulk of his minutes for Pompey. We've been playing him on the left.Where he's done ok, but perhaps isn't 100% comfortable. Not quite a square peg in a round hole, on the left. But , nonetheless, not his best position. He looked more " on it", when he came on, on Friday. |  | |  |
