On the subject of Marseille, I’d love to go to a game at the Orange Velodrome, probably my favourite stadium.

If i was being harsh I’d say poor keeping really. But to lose to that side by only one is quite an achievement

Both Stoke keepers had a decent game, goal apart. Lasse sorrenson looked awful though, constantly giving the ball away and poor passing, although he has been out a while. 1st half very enjoyable, 2nd half very scrappy. First time at at George's park, impressive place apart from portaloo bogs ( which were still decent) 🤣

My first visit to St George’s Park , impressed with the site
Most interesting part of the day for me ,was seeing how Stoke ( the youth team at least ) played the new goal kick rule .& how Marseille defended against it ...will be interesting to see how senior teams use , or don’t use it ..(.today’s use not described in case it’s a club policy played at all levels)

First time at at George's park, impressive place apart from portaloo bogs ( which were still decent) 🤣 Strange peoples perceptions of the same game, Sorensen was a bit rusty , but I thought at least he was trying to do something with the ball, In the first half we were just punting the ball up most of the time. We did make a couple of chances . So was that their first team, as they seemed to have another complete squad who went to play on another pitch behind the Charlton one.

I agree he was trying to do the right things, just not successful for me. I think that was mostly there 1st team first half with a few missing according to my lad, I only know a few if there players tbh. I thought we gave a great account of ourselves 👍

That’s one of the problems when there’s a clamour for youngsters to be given a chance (not saying you shouldn’t) but they are still learning the game and will make elementary mistakes in the heat of the battle. I’ll bet his mistake has been been pointed out to him, and hopefully he’ll learn from the experience.
