Does everyone else have a real dislike for many of our players? I can think of at least five.
When was the last time the club had so many players that we'd prefer never to play again?

The only two I'm really bothered about are Adam and Saido, I don't buy the whole Saido thing, said he would be a bad signing and we're at the point where he can't even keep himself fit.
The fact Adam still plays for us is a travesty, an absolute over the hill thug from whom any semblance of football or dead ball ability has evaporated and has been replaced by this faux "passion" bollocks that he peddles. Urgh.
You'll struggle to find a worse cameo that what he delivered at Leicester, he was a Zouma and Butland away from losing us the bloody game.

What I don't understand is Lambo saying Saido isn't fully fit, yet he doesn't hesitate to bring on Charlie who is the most out of shape professional footballer in history. Could it be because he's a fellow Scot?
I despise Saido both as a footballer and as a "man". I never want to see him in a Stoke shirt again. Charlie has given great service to the club but his time is well and truly up now.

Definately a bit of a negative thread this :-)
But i do think it would help the club to sell / terminate the contracts of saido / wimmer / imbula... Take a massive loss... And refocus
Be more positive. Have a happy ship And start again

and I'd add that this is one of the single biggest reasons we are in such a mess. bad attitudes, primadonas, poor work ethic and dare I say it pretty much a continuation of the legacy left at QPR.....

Couldn’t give a shit really as long as they give their all for the badge on their shirt and represent our great club as you would expect.
It’s funny though on the 3/4 occasions when I’ve been close to the players (when sons were mascots etc) some of the players who were lauded as being integral to the team spirit in the dressing room were out and out miserable pricks to the kids who were excited about meeting their idols, namely Bojan, Whelan and Walters on at least a couple of occasions.
Whereas those criticised for their attitude at times, the likes of Arnautovic, Choupo Moting and Wollscheid were absolutely brilliant and couldn’t do enough.......

I have a dislike of Butland, just appears to think he is something, and the moment the current "manager" says he doesn't have an attitude problem that means he really does, not to mention the times he has had a go at the fans and shushed them etc

Why make the post if you're just going to tit us up and not mention the players you don't like?  I never used to like Simonsen, he was a miserable bastard. Nobody in the current squad I dislike, Choupo is shite - but I don't really dislike him. |

Saying that a few pundits are switching from Jack and pushing Pickford as England number 1. I love them and hate them all, in equal measures, in any given game!  |

I'm pretty sure jack doesn't write his tweets himself either. He has a company do them for him, hence the constant 'we keep fighting' repetition. |

There are plenty in the squad that I think are crap, and a couple that I think are pinching a living, but if they are in the team they get my full support.
If it is a question of personality then I dont think I have a problem with any of them? Choupo lacks heart and Erik spends too much time being pally with the opposition but not a lot else winds me up...

And refocus Be more positive. Have a happy ship And start again Could you explain how you sell (or terminate the contracts of) Berahino, Wimmer and Imbula? How do you sell them given the wages they are on? You could try to give them away but the "buying" club would have to find their wages (which could top £2.5 million per year for each player) for the life of the existing contract - unless either the player accepts a big wage cut or Stoke pay the difference between our wages and the wages the new club are prepared to pay. Much the same applies to terminating the contracts. You can terminate the contract of any player but only if you agree to pay him the wages he will be due until the end of his contract. That is the problem with these 3 horror signings. The £50 million we paid for them (less any fees we might get if we sell them) does NOT represent the full extent of our potential losses. Whatever wages remain outstanding on their contracts is also a potential loss to the club - less any wages a new club is prepared to pay.  |

I dont think you can sell them I think you have to buy out their contracts at a huge loss. Pay all their wages until the contract ends and be rid of them |
