Theofanis Gekas is unhappy with the way his Portsmouth career has gone.

The Greek international striker joined Pompey from Bayer Leverkusen on loan in January, but he has yet to make a single appearances for the Fratton Park side.

"I don't deserve something like this, such treatment. I think my CV is worthy of respect," Gekas told The News. "Through my efforts on the field in the past year, I've shown people what I'm capable of. I deserve more respect.

"I didn't walk away from Leverkusen - a club going for the German Championship - in order to come over here, at a club fighting for survival only, and being seated in the stands. I didn't come here just to train with the rest of the team.

"I don't care if there's a new manager, I only know Mr Hart (below) keeps ignoring me without even giving me a single, simple, explanation. He should give me a chance first and then, if I fail, he can judge me."
