He’s been massively underwhelming if I’m honest. I thought he was a vital piece of the jigsaw when he signed but if anything he’s a bit of a liability in his play and using his gob.

I think I’m the only one who thought it, but the goal was celebrated right in front of me, and it didn’t half look like Pearson was having a go at the fans.
Like, it wasn’t a clenched fist and James Beattie ‘that’s what I’m talking about’
… it just looked like he was… well… having a go

Just can't be bothered getting riled by the poisoned dwarf to be honest.

Like most I have mixed feelings about Pearson. I didn’t know much about him at his previous clubs but he was regularly touted on here as the sort of “shithouse” type we needed. I was pleasantly surprised when I first saw him at Stoke - he seemed to know where the danger was, won the ball and was better on the ball than I expected. He played simple balls and we seemed more able to play through the midfield which is what I like to see, a bit like NZonzi did, he enabled others. He is, though, liable to make mistakes but I still think he is an important player for us and not as bad as some are making out.
When it comes to stupidity though he is near the top of the bill. Silly fouls, yellow cards show not only a lack of intelligence but also a lack of serious respect for the team and ultimately the club. He isn’t the only one though - too many players make silly challenges in dangerous areas or are careless in critical situations. The new manager needs to sort that out and he needs to start with Ben as he is a senior player in the squad.

He prides himself on being an idiot. He’s a bloody good player but he believes his own hype. He does these cynical fouls because he thinks the fans appreciate his shithousery. He’s been here long enough now to realise we don’t appreciate it. If he knuckles down with a decent manager you’ll see a different player I’m convinced of it.

Having seen it on TV , knowing he was on 9 bookings and the team in the state we are in , it was totally unprofessional , just shows how far we have fallen when he is regarded as one of our better players

Not sure we missed him today, certainly didn't miss the tired fouls conceded around our box in the last 10 minutes.

He’s another good example of a player coming to Stoke and progressively getting worse.

He'll be at the selection boxes already and scoffing all the Freddos.
Thompson does ok when he comes in and yep, no needless free kicks.
Pearson reminds me of the mate someone always brings along to 5 a side games. He wears his school shorts still that are way too tight and usually has a can of lager and a pack of cigs in his bag.

Will Pearson come back from suspension with a Wayne Biggins tan?
