I like Imbula and Pieters but I would not start with them in the next game. It's harsh to single people out but I think these two can do better than what they have done. They're not performing at the level they can do. They have been nowhere near the worst players today

Enough's enough. Hughes out I wait for the next game. If we play the same shit, then i will be your opinion. No manager on this planet would still let Walters play

Our shots on goal have dramatically increased since Charlie Adam came on. Yep he's our only long term player to know how to shoot.

5th time in 10 games we have conceded at least 4. Only 7 shots on target all season. Haven't scored from open play this season. The commentators are loving these stats.

Just been refreshing the Oatcake whilst I'm out. Sounds like a fucking abysmal showing. What the fuck is going on?

Defensively we have no idea as a team. It's not the defenders fault in the main, it's the whole teams attitude towards shape and defense. It can't be that hard to work on holding a good defensive shape in training surely?

My stream cut out at the 80th minute, but I found another one. True fans don't leave early.

This is really weird but it looks to me that the players have just given up.
That's poor.

Did you read what I have written? Of course but are any of them performing to their best standards? Some probably are - don't think Given has done much wrong. The reason I'd drop those two are because they are important players and a game out might actually do them some good. They've been nowhere near their level this season. Imbula has been a shadow of himself so far this season and Pieters seems to have lost his confidence.

Indi allows us to move geoff forward infront of the backline, we need to either hope Johnson or Bards is fit though. That midfield is a joke losing possession and getting ran through far too easily.

We need to stop this direct defending, and pray Johnson comes back soon and butland makes a speedy recovery cus despeite the woeful defending Given should have stopped a few of their goals

Imbula has probably been the best of the poor midfielders today. Allen and Whelan certainly been worse.

I feel for Walters. He knows what to do, just doesn't seem like his body is cooperating with his mind.

Who still thinks the three man reverse triangle midfield is what Stoke should continue with seriously? Allen, Imbula and Whelan have been bossed and shown its limits. Joke it is even persisted with.
