With the Hughes style of football? All the tippy tappy sideways and backwards passing not much fight in the team when we go a goal down and not much idea against side who want to defend an play direct football. God forbid I wouldn't want Pulis back in nay shape or form or nay other manager with a similar philosophy about how football should be played. We have no idea how to score from set pieces, we have quality wingers who rarely cross the ball and strikers who don't score but get picked week in week out. We have journeymen players that are picked ahead of up and coming youngsters when we play cup games against lower league teams yet still we struggle and just about manage to scrape past them. Perhaps all the talk of Hughes deserving a bigger job has clouded his judgement somewhat.

Yes and I look forward to the day we play with a man in the cage, lumping the ball forward totally missing out the 4 midfielders rayt up to a big brute of a center forward.....bang goal!
In all fairness there are some good points but, I much prefer what we have to what we had!

There are a lot of truths in that to be fair which could be easily rectified by the managent, however i'll judge after another summer when the squad is truly his own.
When we play well we look a totally different team & it's a joy to watch.

Frustrated at not always hitting the heights of our potential but never bored no. Hughes is the best manager in my 27 years of supporting Stoke - he's excellent in my opinion

Talking to a West Brom fan today Id not seen at work for a while about the six points they got off us this season
Im telling you - he said three shots on target in the last two home games (sound familiar ?)
young talented prospects leaving the club in droves becasue they now know - they'll never, ever, get a game
(sound familiar ?)
A star striker worn down young -highly rated but - demotivated - disenfranchaised by the manager --
price dropping throuh the floor day by day because he never plays
( sound familiar ?)
- WELL from the baggies fan - I was expecting some flak - he was near suicidal, I can tell you
dreaming of being able to watch a team like ours with Bojan, Affellay, Arnie, Shakiri et al
So - the OP is talking some shyte I can tell you
OHHHHHH its spiderman - explains a lot - (once a tool - always - a tool ! )

See I was right.
He's stirred the wasps nest and now fucked off.
Don't give him the pleasure of rising to it.
Edit He'll pop back in a bit and check on his handywork.
He might give it another stir if it isn't going too well.
He may have been away for 4 years but his MO hasn't changed.

The only gripe I've got with Hughes Is the lack of quality from corners. Set pieces in general are pretty poor too.
We can get the extra goals from these opportunities
