Another midweek game for us then, hopefully a bit better than the last round. How would you line up? Sounds like Afellay is back from his ban, and the likes of Wollscheid and Joselu will surely be involved.

A difficult one this match.
After the Luton game we probably need to play a stronger team, but we need to give game time to some of the squad.
Those who we need to give game time to:
Given
Wolly
Afellay
Joselu
Odimwingy
So, I'd go for:
Given
Bardsley
Wholly
Muni
Peiters
Whelan
MVG
Odimwingy
Ireland
Afellay
Joselu

Whoever plays we need a win to settle the nerves for Saturday.
Should be a good atmosphere with 1200 or so Stokies in attendance...

Our main worries so far are defence and defensive midfield - common perception is that they need to gel - well why not play the same back 4 of yesterday with
Whelan and Van Ginkel for ths game - the only way they will gel is playing time together

This may be frowned upon by most of you but I would play Shaqiri in this, even if just for a half, I think after he nets his first goal he'll be a handful for anyone just needs a confidence booster

Shaquiri needs to play in this ,he has to find some form ,he has to do more than just take free kicks and corners ,let him have a free role against fulham

Bojan looked close to being up to speed to me.
Shaqiri needs more time though so yes play him
Odemwingie on the other side.

I would play a full squad as yesterday. Look at Chelsea last week, very poor couldn't buy a win, then get a 4 nil in the champions league mid week and the mojo is back..
We need a confidence boost, possibly only change would be Joselu for SJW.
If they can't play two games in a week at this level then time to pack up!!

Disagree regarding squad rotation, first priority is getting the first team firing. Once that is happening then feel free to rotate. Problem is I don't think Sparky is convinced with what his first 11 is!!
Clearly there are important omissions at have moment (Ryan) but we need to give as much game time to the starting 11 as possible- should have been at this stage pre season or just after for me!

Any away pubs recommendations? 8 Bells is usually full of Stoke albeit a bit of a shit hole. Loads of good boozers to stumble into though around there. |

Stick a few kids on the bench. Moha, Shenton and that lad from Blackpool who scored pre season.

Given Johnson Wilson Muni Bardsley Sidwell Lecygne Wingie Ireland Afellay Joselu Lecygne one of the better kids? What kind of player? Defensive midfielder who can pass and tackle. He's probably not good enough but it's getting close to that time with him where I think we have to throw in at the deep end or let him go. |
