'We now need to establish ourselves here' - Mousinho

In his first full season in charge John Mousinho won Portsmouth promotion from League One

Portsmouth boss John Mousinho said that the club now "need to establish" themselves as Championship side having confirmed safety.

The Blues beat Watford at Fratton Park to open up a six point gap to the league's bottom three with two games to go.

Hull City and Derby below them still have to play each other which confirmed Portsmouth as officially safe.

"I thought we played so well in the first half and didn't manage to put it to bed in the second." Mousinho told BBC Radio Solent.

"I think the boys had nerves with the severity of the occasion and how important it was to pick up the three points.

"It's a brilliant achievement but it's the next building block for where we need to go as a football club, we need to establish ourselves here now, we will go again and improve from where we have been this season.

"Survival hasn't quite sunk in for me yet because of the emotion of the game, I will definitely have a beer tonight though!"
