Jamie O'Hara unfazed by Portsmouth turmoil
O'Hara joined Portsmouth on loan at the beginning of the season, and has seen his new side lose six of their opening seven Premier League games.
“I was in the comfort zone at Tottenham," admitted O'Hara. "I could have stayed and played matches here and there. But I am not the type of person happy to do that. I want to play every week.
“I hate sitting on the bench and I hate watching players while I’m sitting there thinking, ‘I want to be out there’.
“So that’s why it was a good opportunity to go and play football every week with Portsmouth. And yes, this experience, the whole situation, can only work in my favour.
“It’s a sticky situation where we are bottom of the league. We are having to fight for every result, and that can only make me better as a player.”
O'Hara and the rest of Portsmouth's squad will today finally receive their pay for the month of September after previously being told that it would arrive at the end of last week and then on Monday.
That was made possible after Portsmouth confirmed that Ali Al-Faraj, a 40-year-old Saudi Arabian property developer, had bought 90 per cent of the club, leaving Sulaiman Al-Fahim with the remaining 10 per cent.
