Well this is a turn up isn't it ? Weren't we meant to be rock bottom after these first 4 games with no points and no hope ? What went wrong? the pissy pant brigade hopes were shattered who said Moting is a shit striker on here earlier?

Fantastic, Stoke. Couldn't get to the match today as I was moving my son into his digs to start his University career, and I'm not ashamed to say I cried a little after he had waved me off - where did that 18 years go? Listening to the match commentary driving back was just what I needed. Well done. I was lost for a few weeks after my eldest buggered off travelling for his gap year, didn't hit quite so hard when he went to Uni having been through it once, strange around the house when they first leave. they keep comin fookin back though !

I'm doing the same next week. Let's hope he can find some Man Utd fans in Salford to talk to about the game

Well played the lads. Very good performance. We must improve our retention of the ball and move the ball before we get caught in possession. PS Chopper is not a striker What can you expect from a free? a slow injury prone non scoring shit forward

It looks like the team spirit is unbelievably high. With one or two significant additions we could be a team to be feared.

Choupo didn't play as a central striker.
Choupo was playing on the left. He worked his arse off, was magnificent, and is going to be better for us than arnie was in that position, I've no doubt about it.
He didn't play as a central striker.
Jese was playing in the middle and looked lost apart from a couple of nice little contributions.
If we had a proper central striker in that game we would have won. Looking at that performance we are that one player away from having an excellent season.
As it is we've made a good start. This is going to be a much better season

I thought we did really well, but I missed Shawcross in the middle I must admit.

But for a world class save from their keeper Jose would have imploded. Thought it was a cracking performance today to confound the doom mongers.

Just got back from my local, the Common Pub Bristol Rhode Island. Stella is excellent, disappointed because my favorite barmaid Megan was not serving (at her brothers wedding), place was empty because she was not there, just an Irish old timer Utd fan at the other end of the bar. But what a great a great game. We were great as far as i am concerned , and i love Joe Allen, but if he was the culprit for losing the ball so easily for their first goal and seemingly making no attemt to recover, then he needs Hughes' right foot up his fuckin arse or dropping, for giving up so easily. Anyway,chuffed to fuck how we have started, especially against difficult oppsiition. Even the 3rd choice bartender new who Stoke City are.

True mate Brad is in Vietnam after travelling around SE Asia for months coming back home in October.

I went and thought that was a good game. Was surprised on the way out to talk to a bloke that thought the first half was as boring as watching paint dry! Did anyone else think that? If so, why?

These are the days I live for, a chance to show the world we can sometimes match these uppity big headed bastards and even, beat them. Some People say - 'what is the point of Stoke City ? & -is the premier league 'all that' ? etc well its days like these , especially when we make all the efforts and succeed, against the odds here's hoping we put a good show on later today Made me very proud today exciting game that could've gone either way with lots of thrills and spills very happy best of all - we got a 'proper team' this year - that much is plain now Away win next week -- why one earth not !!!!! and to cap it all De Gea made one of the best point blank tip overs I have ever seen

Best team performance for a year Would be my view , butland key moments showed how much we missed him last year , Fletcher and Allen and the back three both halves Great , Shaq and Eric top performances ,Eric did a job on Valencia and scored twice To boot , only dissapointmrmt Jesse not convinced he can play there And their second goal came from his attempt at showboating rather see berahino up top or Diouf if we can build up Ramadan on the right .
special praise for Diouf who was again simply brilliant as jack of all trades .
Manager great job seem fitter , stronger and more coherent as a team , and seems to piss off the other managers with ease which can't harm
