'Bishop not ready for 90 minutes' - Mousinho

Portsmouth boss John Mousinho says it is too early for Colby Bishop to complete a full 90 minutes.

Bishop came off the bench to convert a penalty in Pompey's 3-1 win over Preston North End on 9 November and mark his first-team comeback after undergoing heart surgery in the summer.

Bishop had been named in Mousinho's line-up for Wednesday's visit of Millwall but was denied a first start since April after a power outage caused the match to be called off.

The postponement was the second in a row for the club after weather disrupted last weekend's intended fixture at Blackburn Rovers.

Pompey travel to Swansea City on Saturday with the likelihood that Bishop will be named in the XI again, but Mousinho has made it clear that he doesn't think the time is right for the 28-year-old to feature for an entire match.

"I don't think he's quite ready to play 90 minutes," Mousinho told BBC Radio Solent.

"I think there's a serious consideration there that once we get to 45 minutes to see where he is and I think the same will apply if and when he next starts a game."

Bishop was Pompey's top scorer last season with 21 goals in 48 appearances across all competitions as they won the League One title to earn promotion into the Championship.
