Portsmouth will be looking to build their momentum going into their next league fixtures after comfortably beating Southend United at Fratton Park on Tuesday evening by four goals to one.

The culmination of the side's recent last minute disappointments against Bristol Rovers and Oxford as well as the unlucky element of not scoring many goals despite having a large quantity of shots per game meant that at last, the floodgates opened for Pompey against The Shrimpers.

Kenny Jackett will be a relieved man, as the pressure of Pompey's poor league position and the less than exciting football on show may have taken its toll.

He may be looking ahead to January to strengthen his team so the South Coast side can have a more positive second half to the season than the first.

That may mean some players will also leave Fratton Park for a new challenge themselves.

We look at two current individuals in the first-team squad who Jackett could offload during the next transfer window...

Brandon Haunstrup

Although Haunstrup is a local boy, having grown up in nearby Waterlooville, and coming through the Portsmouth academy, the 22-year-old has found chances limited in the past two seasons, making just five appearances last campaign for Pompey.

He has made 27 league appearances since 2015, and it may be better for the youngster to seek a move to improve his chances of regular first-team football.

It all depends if Jackett believes Haunstrup should be part of his plans. Haustrup's contract also expires in June 2020, meaning he could just wind it down and leave for a free transfer in the summer.

Ben Close

Another player to come through the youth system at Pompey, Close has had a disappointing season so far for Portsmouth in the midfield, drawing criticism from fans for his sub-par performances.

The 23-year-old is a better player further up the midfield but it remains to be seen if Jackett will play him regularly, and if so, deploy him as a central defensive midfielder.

However, as the 23-year-old recently signed a new deal in April, Portsmouth would demand a substantial fee if he were to leave.
