Now it looks like it might come back and bite us on the arse, with ShawX struggling and Wooly looking a bit shite we may have to depend on a centre back pairing out of Wilson/Tex/Muni. Getting concerned yet - I am. Gouranga.  |

In the old days on here you would have been "wheeled" for that. It's a conclusion most of us reached several months ago. "Man invents wheel"  |

But now it's become worryingly obvious and very concerning with kick off to the new season just a week away. I wonder if we put in a buy back clause when we let him go? Gouranga. |

Allegedly he saw Mark Bowen's wife on his phone and answered "Cock"
That was the beginning of the end

Shawcross, Wolly and Huth are all the same type of player, Shawcross and Huth could only play together in a Pulis style setup and not a Hughes one so he would be third down the pecking order, can you really blame us for cashing in on him?
Wolly had some good games for us and he'll continue to improve, the amount of fearmongering on here sometimes is ridiculous, only a Stoke board could go in to meltdown over pre season friendlies
Muni was terrible yesterday, should we replace him? Or should we judge him based on games that actually matter? Stop being such pansies and start worrying if we're bottom at Christmas
As for Shawcross being injured, Cameron played well at CB and we know Wilson can play there too, so there's plenty of cover

Given the problems with Shawcross, we should have said Leicester you'll have to wait until we'd seen how Shawcross fitness was in pre season. If he was fine then we could have let Huth go. Total negligence.

How many games did Huth play under Hughes? We finished 9th two seasons running, even the games Shawcross didn't play we did ok, as far as I can remember we won more than we lost. So far this Management have not let us down, let's see what happens.

Total negligence. Totally why let Huth go knowing Ryan was carrying a long term back problem, we then compound the whole issue by signing a player for the same money who most of us could see last season was way out of his depth at this level, self inflicted problem and as you say negligence. |

Don't disagree in principle. We would definitely have been feeling more comfortable right now if Huth was still here however he wasn't in our team last season due to injury and loan and the season proved to be successful. Maybe Wolly wasn't the best purchase but from a progression perspective was having Huth sitting on our bench/being backup good for either us or him? The decision to get someone younger in wasn't a bad one even if the person we got in turns out to be the wrong person.

So we were right to let Huth go and replace him with Wolly even if he is actually not fit enough to lace Huth's boots ? strange logic to me. |

In 2013 (second half of 2012/13 season) Robert Huth was part of a defense that had the worst defensive record in recent years for Stoke City.
When Hughes arrived Huth was given his chance but was taken out of the side and since then we have seen an improving defensive record, finishing off last season with the 7th meanest defense in the premier league.
Huth played 13 times in the last 2 seasons, only once last season in what was Stoke City's best season in the premier league.
In the last 3 seasons in the premier league Huth played 48 times for Stoke City, scoring just one goal.
Back in the day Robert Huth was a great servant for the club and played a 'big' part in helping Stoke City sustain their premier league status.
The Robert Huth we loved and held with such regard in all intense purposes left us at the end of 2012.
It says a lot for the great mans impact between 2009-12, that there are people today that think that Robert Huth's departure at the end of the 2014/15 season has in someway weakened Stoke City.
Some might say such suggestions are ignorant or disrespectful to the current Stoke City players, who have been part of the squad that have taken the club forwards over the last two seasons.
Hopefully over the next 38 games, no such disrespect will be shown to 'our own' the players of Stoke City.

Regardless of your response geoffscott is 99% correct with his post. The only error is that huth wasn't taken out of the side. Injury deprived us of his services. |

I take it you did not see any of his performances for Leicester last season when we were told by our club he was not fit, someone was telling porkies. I only saw highlights of Leicester City games and read the odd report, though I do watch and follow Stoke City very closely. Nothing I saw over the last two seasons, suggested that Rober Huth had a direct affect on our year on year improvements. I liked Huth and I hope he can still have a good season for a club like Leicester and I don't think its any coincidence that the clubs higher up the league didn't apparently have Robert Huth on their radar when he became available. |

Huth didn't want to stay here and spend most of the time on the bench.
He'll get lots of first team football at Leicester and so it is the best decision for him.
