To be fair, it is obvious that he literally always makes the correct decisions. Dropping Pennant, playing Woodgate at RB for ages with Shotton in midfield, not starting Huth at the beginning of the season for no real reason, not giving Walters a rest ever, are all strokes of genius to me!

Brave post. Agree with a lot of the criticism about team selections, being too negative etc... but some of this stuff is just hysterical. We should judge our manager on what he has achieved over the last few years rather than on our recent form. There is a big difference between people questioning the team selection, criticising certain signings and bemoaning our recent form and those who just talk rubbish.

you're right, he's great Yeah he is, I dont know why youre suggesting otherwise with that fucking stupid face thing to be quite honest. We'll finish safe in mid table, something we're never likely to better under any manager, we're stoke the best we can hope for is 8/9th under anyone

All valid points mate....but,can you really say you are happy with what we are watching week in week out ? I certainly dont want TP out but his team selections of late and the total lack of football we play will catch up with us.Forget the cup matches...nothing less than 4 points from the next two home games will be a real worry...the next few away games are almost nailed on defeats...end of February will show where we are...i fear the worst.

i'm not even entertaining engaging into a debate with you on this lightbourne. We won't finish mid table on present form, but i agree it would take a fairly immense manager to force our players into unnatural positions as well as Tone does, and leave the majority of talent on the bench...like i said, he's great Now leave me alone, i'm bored of listing Tone's failings

shut up you idiot, this look where we have come from bollocks from the happy clappers really annoys me, i give TP credit for what he has done for the club but we havent really evolved in tearms with our style from our first season in the prem but with spending millions of pounds. The problem is we watch terrible football week in week in week out now playing with some very average players and players out of position. Look at today for example, walters gives nothing out in midfield but later on in the match when he plays in his correct position he looked good, pennant on the right worked really well with shotton ie overlaps and balls into the box and i could go on and one about crouch and jones together and the importance of playing 2 wingers. Its such a shame that it took us 70 mins and 2 goals down to finally play some football with nearly our strongest team and we actually looked half decent. The problem is that almost every one who watches stoke can see this, and i mean ffs even the commentator on the tv today said that walters offers nothing on the wing because he is out of position, but TP cant. Its really starting to get to supporters now and i know several who are in 2 minds about renewing their season ticket, and the fact we get pissed off is because we can remember where we have come from and we dont want to end up back there.

I wasn't moaning in 1982 either when we were in the top flight, playing exciting attacking football. With the likes of Chamberlain, Thomas & McIlroy tearing up the midfield.
But it would have been nice to think that 30 years later we would have moved on a bit. But instead we get to witness a footballing dinosaur of a manager stubbornly doing things in his own style and ignoring all warnings.
An iceberg approaceth Captain Smith!!!

Utter fuckwittery.

He won us promotion, but that was against championship sides where his style of football works, the problem is that pulis isn't a premier league manager. true we've been in the prem for 4 seasons now, and never been in the relegation battle, but how much of that has been a fluke? I think a great portion of it has been down to other teams playing crap rather than us playing well.
Don't get me wrong i'm not saying pulis is a bad manager, I just don't think he should be trying to force a style of football that just about worked in the championship, into the top flight of english football.

No plan b. This valencia talk is boring now mate. When were out of europe and out the fa cup and struggling in the league, will u still be coming out with the same shit week in week out?

There is a big difference between people questioning the team selection, criticising certain signings and bemoaning our recent form and those who just talk rubbish. because what has been achieved over previous years guarantees premiership survival doesn't it?
