The ONLY thing that makes sense, other than injury, as to why hughes isn't playing Sobhi is that he rates him SO highly he doesn't want to put him in the shop window this summer.
But then what's the point of the 5 year contract then????

A complete mystery why Sobhi is not one of the first on the team sheet, wtf does he have to do to start?

Saving him for Arsenal?
(Said in jest, should've been the sub for Arnie & possibly on earlier)

How many times have we seen a Stoke player play a full game THIS well? Hardly gives the ball away, pace, skill, tracks back, strong... if only we had 3 or 4 more Sobhi's

I honestly cannot understand why Hughes doesn't play Ramadan, Shaqiri as a 10, and Arnautovic? How demoralising must it be to come in to the team after such a long wait, be a stand out players, then be dropped for some little mardarse who's always injured!

Whether you're Hughes in or Hughes out, its hard to argue against the fact that this player is being chronically mismanaged.

The entire team is too old,too slow and off the pace
So what is hughes going to do about that?
Drop sobhi
That's just nonsense

Stoke 2 mbro 0 He wasn't just playing well himself he was helping us win a football match If that's not good enough for hughes? What does he actually want?

How do you come to the conclusion he is being chronically mismanaged, without knowing all the facts? Yes it seems crazy that Ramadan isn't playing regularly, but clearly Hughes has his reasons, and we are not privy to them.

Once you take fitness out of the picture everything else points to a manager with a very muddled mind.

Muniesa was getting rinsed on the left and there was a danger that we would lose the game so he brought Pieters on and shoved Muniesa forward, basically out of the way of their right winger. Sobhi has done well and should get another chance in the last 2 games but our main wingers are Arnie and Shaq, which means Sobhi has to bide his time. He would have been shipped out to Barnsley for 2 years if it was TP

The only explanation I can think of is the language barrier. Both him and Imbula hardly speak a word of English and maybe Hughes has struggled to get instructions across. It's surely not a question of his ability.

This lad has bags of talent and potential yet he's being shat on by Hughes, if we end up losing this kid then we need shooting.

Literally got us the win v palace setting up Joe Allen for the goal March... Excellent in getting us a win v boro, a draw v man city and our best effort v a top club all season (stoke 1 Chelsea 2) But why play him just because he gives us energy and gets us results??? Total madness!

Tottenham 4 stoke 0
Our worst perfomance of the season ( and that's saying something) . Even PC lost his rag
Total garbage.
And the only stoke player to keep his cool and keep playing to the very end... Ramadan sobhi
What does that tell you?

It's surely not a question of his ability. Many examples of players (and indeed managers) who take time to develop an understanding of the language at a club. Not a valid reason to keep him on the bench As for yesterday why not take Muniesa off IF he was poor and introduce Ramadan who is effective at chasing back and helping in defence

Are you referring to Shaq, as 'Some little mardarse who's always injured'? Yes Why do you think he is a mardarse? I can understand the frustration with his injury record, but only because we know what he is capable of on his day. I like Ramadan, but Shaq offers more in terms of game winning, goal scoring and setting up then him.
