FORMER Arsenal and England defender Tony Adams has been named as the new manager of Premier League Portsmouth.
Adams was in temporary charge alongside Joe Jordan for Sunday's 1-1 draw with Fulham following the departure of Harry Redknapp.
And yesterday the 42-year-old was given the top job at Fratton Park, with today's match at Liverpool his first test as an English top-flight boss.
Peter Storrie, who has become executive chairman at Fratton Park, said: 'Adams is not only popular among the board and people working at the club, but also as was shown on Sunday, it's a popular decision for the supporters.'
