We've played so well and been done on the break yet again, we need to learn to take our chances when we're on top.
This ref has been poor as well, he's let Leicester get away with persistent fouls all game.
Come on Stoke, we're better than these!!

I hate to say it, but Bojan up front has been a struggle again. He's a striker not a 10

We need to stop blaming the ref every week.
We are behind because we didn't take our chances, which ultimately means we are not good enough.

Poor final ball today. It is a shame and disappointing as we have played well and been smashed on the break. Well still haven't clicked up top; back to the drawing board

We need someone who can put it in the Net, Crouch and Walters aint it.

Well teams outside the top 7 know what to do when they come to Stoke now, sit back and hit us on the break because we can't break anyone down for shit

The ref was fine, some of you are ridiculous. Bojan can't pick a pass, so all we have is a lob to Crouch.
Ref let Crouch do all he wanted in the air too.
Just a plodding frustrating performance. If you want to be top 8, you have to score your chances.

I thought we played well today and can't really criticise any of the players on the pitch, maybe Hughes could have changed things a bit earlier and brought Adam on but we were on top all game and deserved something out of the game.
Most teams that come to the Brit are going to use the same tactics as Villa and Leicester now and we've going to have to find a way to break them down. If we can get an early goal and force the game to open up a bit then I can see us scoring a few but it's that all important first goal we're lacking.

We had the possession, We just don't have any clinical finishers. look at any of our front men and their shot to goal ratios, or even shot to on target ratios, im not sure what they are but I cant imagine tehm been good statistics.

Needed better final balls at end of the day & the one player that can do that was left on the bench all game.

We're missing a Stephen Ireland or a Charlie Adam.
As good as Bojan is technically, he doesn't seem to have the ability to create as well as those two and it's costing us at the moment.
We can't counter-attack every week.

We needed to spend big on a proven striker. Crouch and JW are not the answer.We need to practise shooting.

To not bring on Arnie or give Adam a chance to turn it round today is senseless to me. Typical stoke today. Often poor after international breaks and fail to build on beating one of the top sides. We missed Odemwingie today

Bojan is a striker, who needs good footballer's around him. We have those in Moses and Arnie, Hughes just needs to find the key.

Not convinced by this, for the 20+ shots! we did not break them down or get behind once, same can be said for Villa, I would argue they had the best 2 chances and scored one of them! It's one thing to do what we did at man city and sneak one on the break, but if we don't work out how to break teams down at home and soon, then we are going to struggle this season. Teams have got us got beat very easily at home, solid back 4 with 2 holding, we need to be wider and use pace!!
