Primus poised for return

With the crucial Southampton game looming, Harry Redknapp is ready to place last year's player of the season back into the mix. Redknapp told the Southern Daily Echo: "Linvoy deserves a chance and he's coming back.

"It's time to give him a go - let's see what he can do at Southampton."

Redknapp has recieved criticism for leaving the defender languishing in the reserves thus far this season - if Linvoy inspires Pompey to victory at St Marys, then who knows? Maybe we'll even see Marc Burchill again!
