People on here have really short memories. It fucking baffles me! Shaqiri, the same Shaqiri that refused to chase a ball that was 10 yards in front of him? Charlie Adams fitness has NEVER been a part of his game, throughout his whole Stoke career. The sending off was harsh. Rooney, the 'victim' did the same a week later and no yellow! So thats that theory out the water. The penalty miss? Are you actually trying to say that it was totally his fault? The way Jese kicked off?! Such a crucial stage of the match. It was already a pressure pen without that. I for one will not be attaching whole blame on Adam. He has to take blame as part of the team that got us relegated however. Thank God the oatcake does not represent the majority voice, most of you lot are actually deluded! That game where shaqiri didn't chase the ball (it was going out of play) was the same game where adam fucked up for their goal He was too slow and fat to get to the penalty rebound and that sending off, even if harsh showed that all he has to his game now is rash tackles.

Thank God the oatcake does not represent the majority voice, most of you lot are actually deluded! Tracking back, tackling and chasing lost causes has NEVER been part of Shaq's game - you cant make allowances for one player and not another - but at least Shaq did the business when it mattered unlike Mr Adam. I wasnt criticizing Shaq for not tracking back. I know hes an offensive player. I make allowances for that. However, when a ball is played in your path and you dont like to run on to it, thats when i question it! Shaq turned up when it matte red? We needed him to turn up more often in the 1st half of the season. Having players like Shaq, they are not 'Stoke DNA' they are mercenaries and, in smaller clubs, can disrupt a dressing room. I for one, am actually happy he's left!

I've always rated Charlie as a footballer but the sad truth is if the rest of the squad had just 10% of the skill, control, fitness and footballing vision of Shaq we wouldn't be where we are now, so it's a fuck off Charlie on this one

Disgraceful comment. Talk about "the pot calling kettle black". The opposition go straight past Charlie as though he is a sack of potatoes.If Charlie had converted the penalty he missed, we just might have had the boost to go on and avoid relegation. That's a bit harsh! Sometimes he kicks them and gets sent off!

Last season's problems lay in poor management, poor transfers and poor long term planning. It's easy to blame players that have left.

Charlie just said what many of us saw ourselves.
Shaqiri is a good player but bone idle and a questionable attitude.

like him or not Charlie is an old school professional footballer in the Danny Higginbotham mould, Danny's stories about how he came into football on the old apprentice scheme where he cleaned Roy Keane's boots are fantastic, more players and attitudes like this and football would be a better game I'd have shit in Keane's boots myself! his point was the pride the young lads took in the job his obvious sadness that when he joined Ipswich he was told that if he wanted youth players to clean his boots he had to pay them and when he turned up in his VW people carrier a young lad laughed at him for having it and not having a blingy watch on was another thing he spoke about

New season about to start and players start to blame players Only at stoke For what it’s worth I blame the people at the top for not sacking one sooner and for replacing him with a dinosaur. The time for blame has gone and we need to be building, not knocking down. 100% focus on upcoming season and recruiting the right players to compliment what we have......”TEAM” I agree with you but we live in a time warp same old stuff each year about the likes of Bojan Impbula and Berahino all wasting opportunities for young players by cluttering up the team in friendlies until these people have been shifted out we wont improve To be fair to Shaq he did turn up half the time , whether that is good enough matters no longer he has gone to a club where he can be a bit part player because that is what they have bought himn to be . I'm more worried about the size of the task we have to get a TEAM on the pitch by August 4th -

Wasn't shaq leading scorer? Kinda sums up last season Joe, if he was our "biggest" player then is it any wonder we were relegated. Let's not lose any sleep with "Shaq", the bloke was clearly a show pony and we're better off in this division without him. 13M can be used elsewhere. Thanks & Cheerio.

Hmmm, I don't want us to keep going back to all this. We got relegated. What's done is done. A new era is dawning. An ideal time to leave all this behind.

You know what, Adam needs to be told to quit. He spends all of his time on talk shows chatting crap. He needs to move on to the next phase of his career and become a pundit or whatever. He's disruptive to our club. No need for any of this. I'm under no illusions Shaq should be accountable in certain areas, but to the fan - he was one of our most creative players and Charlie was likely a "good lad in the dressing room" but was naff for majority of the time on the pitch. Wish he'd shut up!!!!!!!!! If I was Rowett, I'd ban him from media or tell him to do one.

Adam is way out of line with this one. He directly cost us points last season...the hypocritical fat twat.

Charlie just said what many of us saw ourselves. Shaqiri is a good player but bone idle and a questionable attitude. Those were my thoughts from day one too, but after the season he had he should keep quiet (and I’m a fan of Charlie) Just wondering why he’s decided to stir the shitpit when we need to be more positive and forward thinking

Getting fed up of hearing Charlie Adam having a go at players. He is in no position to be critical of anyone, when he was an embarrassment at times last season. Can he honestly say that he gave everything to keep us up, kept himself on peak physical condition & didn’t let anyone down? The answer is a clear NO. I agree with your thoughts on Charlie`s fitness etc, but I also agree with his thoughts on Shaqiri and I`ll say it again ..... he was a one good game in 4 man for us including last season, which simply isn't good enough But that was far better than Charlie's good game in none wasn't it. What's the old saying. People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

It’ll be interesting to whether L’oool can get Shaq to go & get his own balls, rather than having to be fed...

Overall I like Charlie ...... but these comments weren't remotely necessary even if Charlie himself had been hugely influential on the pitch last season in a positive way, but when he was such a liability such comments are just ridiculous.

Charlie Adam can fuck off. Constantly stirring the pot on the radio and has been doing it for ages. He gets away with it because he’s “old school” but don’t fool for it - he’s trying to make a name for himself as a pundit because he probably realises he’s not good enough to be a footballer anymore.
Used to like the bloke but can’t stand him now. Completely useless on the pitch and an utter twat off it.

There are guys sitting in that stadium every other week who work 40/50/60 hours a week for minimal pay who look after themselves, have far more discipline and fitness than Charlie Adam.
A man whose very lucrative career is based around being athletic, fit and healthy. A man whose provided with the best coaches, equipment and diets.
The fact he will get significant game time next season shows how we will have failed in our aims to rebuild.

Basically said our big name players didn't turn up when needed. Never mentioned his sending off and missed penalty however. A missed penalty and a sending-off is deplorable but it happens in the heat of the moment at games. But essentially not turning up in matches is unacceptable.
