Stoke

[Lawnmower]

Regarding how poor Stoke were is Joe Allen getting a pass because he's our anchor midfielder for Wales?

The way he flapped his legs about chasing Tomlin and the thought he could be playing against Hazard next summer gave me kittens.

The amount of sideways and backwards passes he and Woods played when they were chasing the game was criminal.

Ba’ath, their centre half was one of the top passers, by no of passes in the division midweek.
Not surprising.

Unbalanced midfield. Both very good players, but you need someone alongside them who will make things happen, can’t play triangles all game.

No pace or threat out wide or up front either, despite the expensive strikers they have.

Makes our squad look a bit less of an expensive bunch of misfits.

They seem a bit of an ‘old’ side too, with a few there past their best
