New Portsmouth signing Aaron Mokoena already fearing relegation

Portsmouth's new signing Aaron Mokoena fears the club face a fight to avoid the drop next season following a crushing pre-season defeat by Benfica.

Pompey have sold Peter Crouch and they could yet lose David James and Sylvain Distin. Now Mokoena - one of only two players signed under the new reign of Sulaiman Al Fahim - admits reinforcements are urgently needed.

Following the 4-0 hammering in Lisbon, the midfielder said: "We need more players and we need to get our act together.

"Benfica was not a good result. That was very disappointing for us. It's going to be challenging but I am sure we can do it."
