Portsmouth boss: It's a good headache to have.

Portsmouth manager John Mousinho has expressed that having two forwards like Colby Bishop and Kusini Yengi to choose from is a positive dilemma.

Pompey are currently sitting at the top of the League One table with a 7-point lead over Derby County as they look to secure promotion to the championship.

Bishop has played a huge role for Portsmouth this season by scoring 16 goals in 33 League One games, and he is Pompey's top scorer once again this season.

Meanwhile, this is Yengi's first season at Fratton Park, and he has scored four goals for Pompey in the league.

The Portsmouth boss stated that Yengi is giving the team a good headache after his man of the match performance against Cambridge United.

Mousinho said: "It’s a tough one for us every week.

‘We spoke after the Cambridge game in terms of Kas giving us a headache coming back from the Asia Cup looking as sharp as he did.

‘He really affected the game and topped it off with a goal. You have to balance that off with our top scorer from last season and our top scorer this season- and everything Colby gives us.

‘It’s a really good headache to have - two centre-forwards who are at the top of their games and offer really different things."

Mousinho's side are scheduled to welcome Oxford United this weekend in League One.

Given the shortage of midfielders, it's highly probable that the Pompey boss will opt to field both Bishop and Yengi.
