Portsmouth's O'Hara: I had to get out of Spurs

Tottenham midfielder Jamie O'Hara is happy with his move on-loan to Portsmouth.

"I was in the comfort zone at Tottenham. I could have stayed and played matches here and there," he has told the Daily Express.

"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."
