Rancid performance today. Should have dragged his sorry ass off at half time. Utterly incapable of completing even the most simple pass.

He's in a poor run of form, absolutely. The whole team is suffering at the moment. He doesn't look like the matchwinner that he did last season. You couldn't say that he'll win you the game right now.
Then again, you could say that about all of them.

Always loathed to take him off as he is a permanent threat. But pretty much everything that he tried today went well and truly tits up....

Arnie is a strange character. Maybe he only plays well if he gets a shag off his missus the night before.

Nowhere near the worst on the pitch. That honour goes to the bluffer at full back, Johnson, who spent all of the second half hiding and hoping he didn't get the ball.
Absolute shithouse.

Arnie has had three stinkers on the trot Had three golden changes in last two games. He should have put all of them away,Stoke would have at least four points from those two games had he done so. Ramadan and Shaqiri next week please

Utterly incapable of completing even the most simple pass. ...like the very simple pass to Berahino, who is not able to finish from 1 meter. What a load of shit in this thread!! Was the only player who has shot on the opposite goal first half and had one excellent finish - unfortunately on the outside of the net. Without him, we are nothing.

Arnie wasn't the worst on the pitch but that doesn't take anything away from the fact that he was absolute dogshit. You're right about Johnson,and his full back mate Pieters was also absolutely atrocious.

It was difficult to finish like that but better to stop the ball there, cause the goalkeeper was close to him. He played a very good first half, beaten his opponent every time at the left side. Second half was not good, certainly due to a heavy week, but some comments here are ridiculous.

Mignolet pulled of a fantastic save from Berahino, Arnie on the other hand had a game to forget, he is in a bad spell and needs to snap out of it, he missed very good chances against Leicester, Burnley and today. We are not saying he is shit, only that he is going through a bad/frustrating spell!

He didn't do the right thing at all,he had time to take a touch,even having hit it first time he should score,he missed the target,piss poor.

How anyone can even consider anything positive about this spineless tosser is beyond me, another one like Pieters stealing a living at Stoke.
Utter shit for 80% of the season and that's him done, he should be sold in the summer and take Hughes with hi!M, dog shit player today.

Of course it's frustrating cause he missed several goals in the last games, but people should learn: He is the only Stoke player, who has/produces so many chances during the games, cause he has the quality, and without him, We would be much, much poorer.

Mate you are right, he is usually quality and god knows where we would be without him but the last 2-3 games he has wasted chances and been relatively poor!

Definitely one of his worst performances in a Stoke shirt.
We really need him to deliver right now but he keeps making mistakes.
In many respects that was the difference today. Liverpool's key players delivered the goods when they had to.

Started the game fantastic and produced the pass of the season for the disallowed goal.. then it went downhill. But I'd never take the bloke off as he's capable of turning it on at the flick of a switch

He was poor against Leicester, and second half today apart from the world class pass to Berahino.....and he played a very good first half today.

Rubbish at Burnley, even worse today. Needs to be dropped Shaqu on one wing and Ramadan the other next game

Sums the tosser up, in on goal takes on his left it's a goal, so the clueless bafoon for some bizarre reason twats it in the side netting.

Yeah the spineless tosser who has carried our attack for most of the season..so when he isn't on it you tend to notice. Usual shit being spouted when he has a couple of poor games..

Thought he played well first half, but he's some way off his best form. I'm not knocking his effort, but things are just not happening for him. Seems to be lacking a bit of confidence and has lost that bit of swagger that makes him such a threat. Having said that, he's still our most likely creator and I don't see it as anything more than a bit of a slump in form. The current climate of Not seemingly having a game plan is not helping, but he'll be back at it soon enough.

Liverpool's key players delivered the goods when they had to. That's the difference between a top four team and a mid-table team. It's always the difference. Higher level of consistency performance level. It's a worn out cliche but true. If he played at top level every week he wouldn't be playing for SCFC.

It's simple: When Arni doesn't deliver, Stoke usually doesn't win.
