If Edwards was putting in crosses like McClean does, a lot of you would be saying “why is no one getting on the end of the cross” !
I like McClean, he shows passion and always looks forward, tries to beat his man (and normally does) and tries to get a cross in!

He’s lost possession more than 25 times in one game! Yes, but to lose it you must have it to lose ie gain or be given that possession - at least he doesn’t hide and looks like he cares - if they all had that same attitude we’d be in much better shape. Speechless.

If you thought he played ok, you fundamentally don’t understand football.

And were you actually watching it or were you on your phone the whole time, trolling people on here and Twatter at the same time?

No we wouldn’t. He’s awful at football. He’s the epitome of what is wrong with this club and it’s fanbase. Accepting effort over talent. He was wank. I don’t accept it you tool but I appreciate honest effort and guile when talent is at a premium or in fact almost none existent ......and I include the management team in this lack-of-talent pool As we are rediscovering, this league needs a shit load of effort and commitment to get anywhere - something we’ve forgotten this past few years.....

Jesus Christ. His crossing is abysmal. I think I saw him hit about 35 speculative efforts including one from the half way line. When he does beat his man, he hits it that hard it's lucky he doesn't knock someone out.

You lot shitting on McClean, bunch of jokers! Did you watch the match tonight...?
Yeah, he gave the ball away a bit, but so what. He did more than any of the rest of them muppets.
Give the guy a break. Flipping LWB scores the only goal from our only shot on target. Why not shit on these strikers a bit?!

But You are correct it's what is wrong with the club that we have lost talent and left with not much else ( odd exception) but sadly the mediocre within the club is only dragging down the very little quality left from 3 years ago. His signings which he said to judge him on in the main ain't much to add to what were already had!

What has fucking happened to us? It’s a complete mess, fella. I can point to so many reasons why it all went wrong, stretching back about four years. I really thought this season would see us start to tune it around. I like Jones and I desperately want him to succeed, but he just looks so far out of his depth right now. I get it’s a process, but this can’t continue much longer. I dread to think about what comes next.

He’s been wank. He’s tried 6/7 crosses and hasn’t found a Stoke player all night. Good finish though. He’s done more than anyone else in a stoke shirt tonight That doesn't stop him from being shit.

Arguing McClean was our best player after a performance like that is like arguing which blade you prefer to lose an eye with.

McClean put in a good shift tonight. You can't deny that.

"he gave the ball away a bit, but so what" Jesus... where do you start with that?! He lost it THIRTY-THREE times. That's embarrassingly bad. He took his goal well but he is a terrible, terrible footballer. Not one aspect of his technical ability is even a 6/10.

If his desire was replicated across the rest of the team we might stand a chance of not being pummelled by abject dross week in week out.
That said, it cannot be argued that his crossing is fucking woeful. It's just head down and smash it, resulting in it either not clearing the first man or ballooning way beyond the far post. Not a single one goes in that area between the sticks...you know...that thing with a net attached that you're supposed to stick the ball in...like the other team regularly do.

The fact that he scored means absolutely fuck all. It was a late consolation that meant nowt.
He was as gash as the rest of them.
