We are entering a new era at Stoke and we need more pace, more energy, more effort individually and as a team. I'd play 4-4-2 Butland Bauer, Zouma, Indi, Pieters Edwards, Cameron, Allen, Tymon Berahino Choupo

Tymon? Is this a piss-take? We need width, we need pace in wide positions but most of all a midfield four who are going to assist in this match as defenders too. All season long we have been destroyed down this particular flank. Sobhi is not a defender. He is an attacking player and needs to be encouraged to run at defences. I am sure that the players I have selected would have the desired work ethic needed! I just do not see us scoring to be honest and our only real hope is to try and keep a clean sheet.

I don't think it much matters to be perfectly honest.
I certainly wouldn't risk anyone half fit, all roads lead to the Huddersfield Town game.

The two players I have picked up front have more of a future at Stoke under a new manager but I have to be honest many of our squad are not good enough which clearly shows the mess we are in! The side I have picked represents a defensive minded team to keep a clean sheet with the hope a new manager will affect the necessary clear out.

Five if you count Cameron

The problem is that Berahino is neither pacey or a great footballer: I'll go with Butland Bauer Zouma BMI Pieters Sobhi Adam Allen Choupa Shaq Diouf

I would go with a 4-3-3
Butland
Edwards Zouma BMI Erik
GCam Allen Fletcher
Shaq Diouf Sobhi
I would pack the middle with experience, just look to get through the first 20 mins without conceding and, if United try to go for the jugular, rely on the experience of the 3 in the middle to hold them at arms length and hit on the counter with flair and pace up top. It's a big ask, but if we can stop them building a head of steam early on and hold out, you never know...

So we’ve gone from having no full-backs to four in one team Five if you count Cameron We never had no fullbacks. We didn't have any wingbacks. In some teams the difference wouldn't matter, but in ours the fullback's inbility to adopt to playing 7 yards further upfield made him crumble and the supporters wince.

I would ask the squad players individually which ones want to play/fight for our club,then pick the team. Those players who are not 100% to take on the challenge they can hand in a transfer request!#overpaidfannies.

Edwards and Tymon have developed in Academies playing in wide positions but also defensively minded. The word you are looking for is width. Can these two players get forward and deliver the ball? Will they be more defensively conscious and be able to protect our full backs who have been torn apart in recent games. It is no use going along with the same old same old! Haven't we just been done over by Coventry! If we try to progress with the same players who are just not good enough, who are unwilling to run and tackle we are up shit creak! Our immediate concern should be to start getting more clean sheets. Players who are not good enough to progress any further in this team are Adam, Crouch, Fletcher, Johnson, Diouf, Jese, Inbula, Affelay, Ireland, Wimmer and Sobhi. I have also major doubts about some of the players I have selected in the team also. God we are in a shit place at the moment! Innovation and invention are needed as well as six new players of good quality!
