Been all Boro', Villa playing on the counter. No goals in this Boro team by the looks of this, admittedly I haven't seen alot of them though.

The 2 most defensive managers I have ever seen in my life. Welcome to English football below the Premier League. Keep 10 men behind the ball and kick it up to the big fast lad up front. People keep telling me Championship football isn't far behind the top tier and it's bollocks. Nothing has changed about it since we were last there.

Yeah there's the odd match with big scorelines, but the defending gets worse the lower down the league you go. Quite a lot worse. Most teams in the Championship also play 4141, it's just basic English direct football from the old times. Nothing new and right up our alley as long as we have the right players.

That’s a huge generalisation. Plenty of teams play decent stuff in the Championship. It’s a mix, it’s not just a league of cloggers these days.

Indeed , also our lot will be knackered after 20 minutes

The 2 most defensive managers I have ever seen in my life. Pulis has more chance than us of being in the premier league next season . How much have you checked out his team? What do you know about the off the field goings on at MB? Do you think you’re well qualified to make that assessment? Do you know what new players/others Stoke are going to bring in? Are you putting your money where your mouth is and placing a sizable wager on MB finishing above Stoke? Are you actually a Stoke supporter?

This is what people keep saying and yet the best teams in the league, Wolves aside, have been playing with typical English lower league formations & play styles.

Ryan Shotton. PL fullback.
Tony Pulis. PL Manager.
Stoke City. Away to Shrewsbury first game up.
Could happen.
If not, sub Shotton for Whelan.

And a fair few teams lower down the division haven’t.

Do you have any idea whatsoever who will take the field in our first match. How much do boro have to spend? How much does Stoke have to spend. Just because you say it’s a fact does not make it so, and that’s a fact! Or not! Double oops!

I have not watched today's match. But last time I watched Boro I was very impressed. A lot depends on whether both teams are prepared to"play".

There’s a chance, reduced after today but still a chance, that Boro might be.

Say what you like about Pulis he was the reason we got in the prem in the first place yes he plays shit football but it worked for us. Kept us up and to a FA cup final
