He desperately needs a goal to open his account and get people talking about his on field activity, it's the only way he can move on from this old shit.

If he also had his wallet stolen, he might have some credibility with the claim. Druggies don't spike drinks unless they are looking for something (money, sex, etc). And they don't spike with ecstacy.
Play your best Saido, and this will pass.
I think he could use the help of a media assistant to protect him from the predators in the press and coach him to say the right things.
American and Canadian teams require media training classes for their players, and they have to meet with a media teacher to watch videos of their interviews and dissect them.
You end up with boring and rehearsed answers, but for someone like Saido who isn't naturally media savvy, being boring and rehearsed would help him.
Surely this is something the club could arrange for him (and any other players who want it)?

He desperately needs a goal to open his account and get people talking about his on field activity, it's the only way he can move on from this old shit. And the best thing we can do as supporters is not to make him feel desperate to score a goal. If he's good enough he will score when given the chance. Its for everyone involved with the club to give him time and for the players on the pitch to give him the chances. If he gets that its up to him. And if he live up to his early potential everyone's a winner. Alternatively everyone can get on his back at the first opportunity and everyone loses. Choose your cards. |

What he needs to do is shut his gob about the past and get on with playing and scoring goals for us.

He sounded pretty genuine to me. Just get fit Saido.

He claims the level of drugs found was "really low", which he says proves there was no intent on his behalf  Sounds like a person lying to me |

And they don't spike with ecstacy. Maybe he also ended up getting bummed* in the toilets but didn't want to talk about it to the BBC. * Let me make it clear that I don't condone date rape, whether heterosexual or homosexual |

Pull the other one Saido. Get your head down, bang some goals in and no one will give a toss anyway

Wade in lads, wade in.
Other clubs' fans would be supporting their new striker, willing him on to succeed. But oh no, Stoke City fans can't wait for him to fail. I just can't get my head around it, but it's nothing new.

"Stoke's banned striker claims drink was spiked" headline on BBC home page. Wasn't he West Brom's banned striker?? EDIT: Just been edited to "Banned striker Berahino claims drink was spiked"  |

Oh, there we have it then. utter dog shit from some of you lot on here. How about supporting the guy instead of wading in? Is it true, is it bullshit? Who cares.... it comes to something when a Stoke player who clearly is trying his best to convince fans and media alike that he still has a career in football, can't convince the fans of his own fucking team. As for those who say "people don't spike peoples drink with ecstasy unless they're after money or sex"..... Yeah, absolutely......... and what's really good about modern 2017 bars, is they've started putting little labels on the drinks with the name of the person who is drinking, just for when some date rapey druggy cunt does try to spike someones drink, he knows it's Jenna's, instead of Saido's.... |

If the club sanctioned this interview then goodness knows what they were thinking. There is absloutely nothing to be gained at all.
The time for this lad to be answering questions is when he has shown that he still has it in him to be a PL forward and has scored a few goals.

The issue was being consigned to history so why bring it into the media attention again? Seems a dumb move to me. As Wuzza says he has absolutely nothing to gain here and certainly isn't going to clear his name. I hope the club at least sanctioned the interview otherwise if I was his manager I might be a tad pissed off. |

I can't see the club allowing this interview, with the international break and not a lot going on with relation to Stoke was anyone even talking about Saido and his (accidental) drug taking?
Besides if true, it wouldn't surprise me if one of his lovely 'mates' I'd heard about did it to him for a 'laugh'

He did not need to do this interview, so I think this might just be the truth, he could have kept his head down and let the whole affair turn into old news.

Most of the stuff that young people drink tastes fucking awful anyway how would you know the difference. I mean antything and red bull, jagerbombs etc whats wrong with a good pint of real ale. They'll be mixing lager and cider or dropping a piece of chalk into their pint of lager to keep it looking fizzy next thing you know. Flash bastards. |
