News: Finnan will miss the Premier League trip to Blackburn on Saturday. The defender is suffering with an abductor muscle problem,
Analysis: There are better options at right back.
|
News: Finnan was still not fit enough to face Everton last week, but is pencilled in to start in Portsmouth's mustn't-lose match against Wolves at Molineux.
Analysis: This could be a tight affair settled by a single goal, if you wanted to gamble on picking up a clean sheet. But it would be a gamble.
|
News: Finnan could make his long-awaited debut for Portsmouth in the Premier League clash with Everton on Saturday lunchtime. The former Liverpool defender has been struggling with a hamstring injury since his move from Espanyol over the summer, but came through a friendly behind closed doors this week.
Analysis: Finnan could be a good investment if Portsmouth can somehow rediscover their miserly defensive approach of recent seasons. He could be worth watching, but playing him in his first match back from injury might be a risk.
|
News: Finnan may make an appearance in the reserves as he nears fitness. "Steve is close to coming back and we want to try to get him a game in a controlled environment," Paul Hart said. "He will be back in the next two weeks."
Analysis: It might be wise to steer clear of Portsmouth defenders for a while - league points and clean sheets could be in short supply for a long time.

News: Finnan came on as a sub against Benfica to mark his debut but was withdrawn with a hamstring injury
Analysis: Having spent much of his season with Espanyol on the treatment table, Finnan should be eyed with caution
