The Blues’ 1-0 loss to Accrington on Sunday saw them surrender their spot in the play-offs to Oxford United.

13. Andy Cannon
The midfielder was a regular under Kenny Jackett but an ongoing back problem has limited his minutes in the final few weeks since Danny Cowley's arrival. Cannon is out of contract but Pompey hold the option an extending by a year. A lot might depend on if his high-octane style is wanted by the head coach. Photo: Joe Pepler
14. Bryn Morris
Been out on loan at Northampton, who were relegated. Danny Cowley said he was being open-minded to Bryn Morris' future but he's likely played his last game for Pompey with his contract expiring. Photo: Jason Brown
15. Marcus Harness
The winger has another year on his contract. Unplayable on his day but been too inconsistent this season. He remains an asset but the Cowleys must discover a way to get the ex-Burton man firing week in, week out. Photo: Daniel Chesterton
16. Ryan Williams
Been a key player since Danny Cowley took charge and impressed the head coach with his energy. Williams is out of contract and wants fresh terms. Some question marks over his end product but he's someone you could see being here next term. Photo: Joe Pepler
