Congratulations. Never seen anything like it. So much talent on show, in red and white for a change. Walters MOM for me. Geoff struggled at times at Walters' work ethic covered the whole right wing from byline to byline.

We have been fantastic 2 games running, then along comes an International break FFS.  |

Never looked like losing the lead. Their goal was a great finish but undeserved. We could have scored more but we didn't need to. Great result Stoke!

So, we are 9th. How many decades do you have to go back since the table showed us as being above, Liverpool, Everton and Spurs.

I know bojan and moses will get all the praise but I was quite impressed with diouf as well. He got himself in decent positions and kept up the pressure on their defence when it was needed. Wait, was that walters? They look too similar!  |

Superb from every man.
We were better than Spurs in every department.
Diouf and Walters work rates are incredible.

When we play we look like a proper good side and with plenty of goals in the team, we are scaring folk now.

Spurs were so bad they turned up the music at full time to drown out the boos!
Makes you proud to be a potter!

As soon as it happened I thought Crouch's red card would turn out to be a blessing. Someone on Spurs message board called them Oxfam Hotspur rofl. |

So many injuries maybe the break comes at a good time. The important thing is the lads can have this game in their heads during the break. Makes a change.

International breaks are just about bearable when you can luxuriate in results, and performances, like this. Love it  |

We have been fantastic 2 games running, then along comes an International break FFS. But for once it may work in our favour. Time for Stoke to rest and recover and let injuries mend. Hopefully a number of them can cry off from international duty due to "knocks" incurred today/recently. Also allows time for Burnley to come down to earth from their "high" after their first win. |

Wait, was that walters? They look too similar! Diouf was superb and led the line brilliantly again. Bojan was marvellous. N'zonzi was magnificent. Sidwell was superb Muniesa was untroubled Ryan was immense Several magnificent performances from our players so no reason Moses should get the plaudits. He was a threat, as always, but every time today he made the wrong decision. His poorest game for us to date which I guess is a sign of the standards he's set himself. |

How about we focus on the fine save he forced from Lloris?
Seems churlish to make such a point against a player who was on for 7 minutes in a game where the bulk of our players, all of them in fact, were quite superb.

Sidwell for me impressed me the most based on my opinion of him. He was so sharp and strong and fit he took the piss out of the Spoz midfield at times.

I was slightly worried a couple of weeks ago as I didn't think we had clicked and hadn't got a claer first XI. Management have done their job surperbly though, bringing Bojan through slowly, letting Diouf settle and backing Walters. A majority of Hughes's signed players starting today and a clear direction. Very good day out all round |

Absolutely dave but you have to be fair on both sides. We have players who would be slated for less than that. |
