Portsmouth boss makes surprise claim about Man City goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu following debut

Portsmouth boss makes surprise claim about Man City goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu following debut

Portsmouth manager Danny Cowley heaped praise on the shoulders of on-loan Manchester City goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu after playing a role in his side’s second goal while marking his debut for the League One club.

Signed on loan by the south coast outfit last month, the 19-year-old, who officially joined City in 2019 from League of Ireland side Shamrock Rovers, finally secured his debut for the club on Saturday, starting in Pompey’s 2-0 home win over Crewe Alexandra.

The shot-stopper was forced to miss their opening day win away to Fleetwood Town and Carabao Cup defeat to Millwall through injury, meaning Alex Bass deputised in his absence between the sticks.

But Bazunu’s performance against Crewe drew plenty of praise from Portsmouth chief Cowley, who hailed his role in the home side’s second goal, with his pass out from the back setting them on their way to netting their second goal through Marcus Harness.

“It was good, wasn’t it? A good goal for us,” Cowley said after the game, as quoted by The42. “Gavin can play so high out of his goal and that allows us to use him as our pivot and that allows us to get an extra number up the pitch.

“It is very important to us and he is very confident in that moment and we worked that one well.”

Drafted in to be the promotion hopeful’s No.1 shot-stopper this season, Cowley highlighted how big a role the Irishman could play in their attacking play, even though his primary aim is to stop the opposition from scoring.

“I’ve said before that I feel we’ve got two of the best young goalkeepers around – certainly in this country,” Cowley added.

“We’d planned to change in midweek, but Gavin wasn’t quite ready to start after coming back from that quad injury. There’s so much faith in him that he can be a real protagonist in our attacking play, despite wearing the number one.”

Bazunu, who will be looking to help Portsmouth maintain their winning start to their League One campaign when they host Shrewsbury Town at Fratton Park on Tuesday evening, is under contract at the Etihad Stadium until the summer of 2024.
