The back four were superb today.👍. Bruno was immense and very unlucky not to score in the first half. If he keeps playing like that , then bigger clubs than us will be fishing around for sure. The back 4 were superb. Also Whelan, Adam and Allen played well. Arnie and Sobhi were on par for me (hit and miss) and Crouch won absolutely everything pinged up to him. Yet we played shit.

We really need to convince him to sign
He has made a huge difference to our defence

Whelan Adam and Allen were our worst players by a distance.
Arnie was MOM by a country mile. Some of the stuff he did was brilliant. Sobhi ran him close.

I've heard a slightly concerning rumour that he doesn't want to stay beyond this season.
The Mrs & Lifestyle being factors (as in Portugal is preferred)
He is fucking ace though and I'm really hope we offer him a deal he can't refuse

We need to do whatever it takes to get him to sign.
If he wants to live by the sea in Portugal then let him, we'll just send a boat to get him on a Saturday morning and then he can go straight home after matches.
Alternatively, we could just let Saido drop a few Es into his tea every morning; he'll be in fucking Portugal all day, every day then.

I feel like he clears every ball while Ryan stands there fingering his own arse Ryan covered Bruno's arse on at least one occasion where he fucked up. Both have each others backs. Both played really well. Him and Ryan have a great partnership going now. IMO he's brought Ryan back to life. Him and Grant...that defensive trio is now one of the most solid I've seen in a long time. Ryan covers him, he covers Ryan..it's a thing of beauty.

The Mrs & Lifestyle being factors (as in Portugal is preferred) He is fucking ace though and I'm really hope we offer him a deal he can't refuse That would explain why he didn't sign in the window be a great Shame to lose him as he has improved remarkably and We are hardly overstocked with defenders .

Man of the match yesterday by a country mile. Class player and we need to do whatever it takes to sign him whatever the price

The price with Porto was already agreed whe he signed if I remember this correctly, £8.5M. I also can't believe they can compete with us when it comes to wages so I really can't see that as a big problem either. Then it comes down to location and lifestyle, and I've also read somewhere that they want to live close to the sea. I guess this is the difficult part as we can't bring him a sea, can we? Anyway, Britain is surrounded by sea so you wouldn't need to drive too long before getting to it either.

I'm a big fan of how Stoke City supporters always look to the defenders as man of the match, big fan.

I'm a big fan of how Stoke City supporters always look to the defenders as man of the match, big fan. Defend the point you start with first. Then go and win the game. Bruno and Ryan provided us with that solid platform. They absolutely dominated Palace's main threat Benteke, and dealt with everything that came in from their only other threats Townsend and Zaha. Both were quite comfortably MOTM #1 and #2.

I thought BMI was excellent, as was the rest of the back 4. Without Arnie and Sohbi though we wouldn't of won that game. That's the difference.
