im often amazed at the amount of blinkered numptys on ere, they were in the bargain bin for a reason,im curious as to why you think they were cuz i reckon its because they are no more than average players,bojan couldnt get into the ajax side ,hardly a world beater. I'm often amazed as to why people reply to you as if you're being serious. You're a WUM. i am an unblinkered realist,up to now only lakeland has attempted to explain why these players were in the bargain bin,the rest of you just get all pissy cuz someone doubts our new signings.lakeland,the clubs wouldnt have allowed the players to wind down their contracts if they were above average players,they didnt exactly fight to keep em did they?

Hughsey's deals last season were excellent.
He inherited possibly the best squad in the bottom half of the Prem and built on it, getting us to play some proper football at the same time.
His recent signings are a mixed bag and nobody knows whether or not they'll all come good.
Bardsley is probably the safest bet. There's little doubt he's a more natural RB than Cameron and a better player than Wilko or Shotton.
Sidwell might just be here to improve our cover for Nzonzi and Whelan. Either way, at his age he's short-term.
Bojan and Diouf are gambles - gambles well worth taking with exciting potential.
Tex - who knows?
And all done on a shoe string - but after years of watching Stoke sell players like Stein, Sheron and Peschisolido, I'm not going to worry if the same owners who are now billionaires risk (and even lose) a few million a season. They'd feel it less than a gnat bite.

I've seen some fucking shit WUMs on here in the past but 1raytuper is by far the worst. It's beyond obvious. Just don't reply fellas, he'll soon get bored. im often amazed at the amount of blinkered numptys on ere, they were in the bargain bin for a reason,im curious as to why you think they were cuz i reckon its because they are no more than average players,bojan couldnt get into the ajax side ,hardly a world beater. Well the reason they are in the 'Bargain bin' is because of a multiple of reasons. Firstly, in the case of Diouf, Sidwell and Bardsley they didn't want to sign new contracts with their club. So actually they weren't in the bin. As for Bojan. He is a player with a lot of potential and Barca want to see him progress. The reason his fee was so low is because they want to see him do well with no pressure of having to live up to a hefty fee.

Use a capital 'L" when you are addressing me, son. Hanover fought tooth and nail to keep Diouf - even turning down our bid of £7 million last year.

Not if they get a hefty % profit from the next sale. I'd guess at 40-50% considering how little we paid. They probably see it as a better investment than him going for a few mil more with no % fee. On second thought, why am I even responding to this retarded thread?

Same as last season... yet we finished with more points, finished in the top half and played better football. Work that out Poirot.
ahh i see,so because we had a good season,we dont need to bring in proven class players.our rivals will be chuffed with that attitude . You're obviously a bit thick so I'll spell it out. We've now got a manager who doesn't sit on his lazy arse and works hard with the recruitment team to get good players for good value. Also we now have proper coaches who take those players and coach them in the art of football. Before we brought players for bonkers money because the manager had a hard on for them. Thankfully for the City faithful Mr Coates saw the error of his ways, refused to continue indulging the tool and eventually got rid when toys were starting to be thrown out of prams. Not even a 100 page grovelling dossier could save the tool.

It just took me 15 minutes work out that a WUM was a wind up merchant haha. To be fair, Diouf hasn't proved he is worth his highest paid player wages or his huge signing on fee yet so he still has the potential to be as bad as kenwyne, but i suppose he also has the potential to be a better goal scorer than peter thorne

Pulis did a brilliant job and so far Hughes has. Pulis signed some brilliant players that still form the spine of our team Begovic, Shawcross, Huth, Whelan, Nzonzi etc etc. Hughes has been bright enough to keep that and build on it. We are one club whoever the manager is!

Whilst we've consolidated our starting 11 and added a few experienced prem players plus a couple of gambles all be it with good pedigree at some point or other. Southampton have been ripped apart of both manager and players. Just a thought like.

sidwell and bardsley are average,diouf and bojan are gambles, the young brazilain wont get near the first team. we should be spending big money on at least one proven player . Everton have spent £28M tonight on a player who some would argue isn't the finished article. It'd be interesting to see how much you consider "big money" is for one of these so-called "proven players".

1raytupper
Stoke in the past 5 years have spent vast sums of money for a club this size, many would argue a lot of it could of been spent a lot better, since Hughes has taken charge we have done some unbelievable business & if you didn't know better you could be forgiven for thinking most of the £100m was spent on the players we have bought to the club since Hughes arrived.
I love the fact we are being smart arses in the transfer market & not taking part in spending like it's monopoly money, it also puts the club in a strong position for years to come. It's taken us 5 years but we have got this transfer business down to a tee now, imo
