🎧 A lot to like, but Schmid is elephant in the room

"I think Portsmouth played as well in the first 45 minutes as they have done all season, they really controlled the game against a team who are going to be up there - I thought it was really impressive. "There was a lot to like about what they did." "Nico Schmid's performance is the elephant in the room. I can't quite figure out what happened with that first goal. If Schmid does what he should do 99 times out of 100 and fall on that ball nothing happens after it. "That little moment gave Stoke a lift, it came from nothing. It was so avoidable. "I think he's under pressure. I think that department is under scrutiny. Mental toughness comes into it. You always feel there's that moment over a few games where he's going to lack concentration." Saturday's 2-1 defeat at home to Stoke brought an end to Portsmouth's six game unbeaten streak and left the Blues 11th going into the international break. In the latest edition of BBC Radio Solent's Who Needs Mourinho ? podcast former Portsmouth defender Paul Robinson joins Andrew Moon and Chris Wise to discuss the defeat and to look at the goalkeeping situation at Fratton Park.
