Portsmouth’s strongest XI over the crucial Christmas period

RM – Carl Baker

Baker is possibly this season’s best signing and has been fundamental in Portsmouth’s strong start to the campaign.

Cook can always rely on the winger for an impressive performance, particularly since he frequently pops up with vital goals such as his two last month against Mansfield Town.

He is extremely strong on the ball, can dribble in and out of defenders and is filled with a wealth of passion.

A former Milton Keynes Dons star, Baker also brings with him crucial experience which undoubtedly strengthens the squad at times of need.
