Ready for battle! Our team is gearing up for a thrilling FA Cup third-round showdown against Portsmouth this weekend, and we've got the inside scoop on their final preparations. Get ready to dive into the action!
Our journey takes us to Fratton Park, a ground we haven't graced in nearly six years. The last time we met in the FA Cup, we triumphed over Pompey with a 2-0 victory in the fifth round. That win was a crucial step towards our last FA Cup glory. And speaking of glory, we're aiming for our 15th title, a feat no other team has achieved more often, with a record-breaking 14 wins already under our belt.
Our dedicated photographer, Stuart MacFarlane, captured the best moments from the team's final training sessions at the Sobha Realty Training Centre. You can see all of his fantastic work below, giving you an exclusive look at the players' focus and determination.
