Hide AdAppleton was quick to bring the 18-year-old in from his former club, along with Joe Mattock, after moving south from the Hawthorns.
Thorne has provided a calming influence in midfield in his two Pompey matches to date and shown an eye for a pass in a couple of intelligent displays.
He says there is more to come from him, however, as he gets more playing time under his belt.
Thorne’s current loan agreement runs until January 2 – but he has already made it clear he would be happy to extend that stay.
