According to a few reports in Italy he has been in talks with us and is about to sign - Not going to jump the gun as it seems a similar situation to the Jemmal deal that fell through!

Yes. Pompey are going to go against the rules and keep him 100% of the time, whilst playing no wages.
Erik Huseklepp's magic. He wears a magic hat. And when he came to Fratton Park, he said "I'm loving that!". He could have played for the scummers, he chose the boys in blue! And hopefully he will now score, a hatrick against you!!! OR (my personal favourite): He plays on the left. He plays on the right. Erki Huseklepp makes Lallana look ****e!
I thought his scoring record was 30 goals in 150 matches. Youd be better off sticking Kelvin Davis up front. Need to get your skates on and make some signings to cover the inevitable injuries caused by fatigue / age (in Kanus case).
We appreciate your honesty saintdon. I am looking foward to how the Bristol city announcer says his name. Up at Reading his attempt to say Flahavan sounded like Flavvenen. Much laughter. PLAY UP POMPEY POMPEY PLAY UP
We now have 19 players, and Cotterill wants another 3 by the end of August. Huseklepp's goal record is 40 goals in 174, and 6 international goals in 21 appearances. That's not too shabby
As no one of sane mind would sign for Pompey in preference to us, my guess is that the link with Saints was put about by his agent.
I always thought he was a winger due to his goal record, but I have been corrected. When he plays up top, he scores. 14 goals in a 27 game season for Brann is decent. The reason he didn't score for Bari much last season was because he was played on the wing a lot, and was playing in arguably the worst Serie A team ever. This guy can score goals.
I think the Saints link was put about to up his wages at Portsmouth... we'll see though. How many youth team players are you going to fire to afford this bloke's wages then?
