On the face of it, when Portsmouth appointed John Mousinho as head coach three weeks into 2023, they were taking a great risk. Danny Cowley, his predecessor, had been sacked on January 2; Kenny Jackett and Paul Cook had occupied the hotseat before that. A trio of managers with vast experience across multiple levels of English football.
Probably my biggest advantage and disadvantage when I took the role was that I had no experience of taking any games whatsoever, but I'd also stepped directly from the dressing room onto the other side. 'I knew what it was like to play games in the league, I know what it's like raising a young family while playing and everything in between. My main focus was to try and make things as player-centric as possible. If we get happy players playing football, we're half the way there.
