was listening to the "Football Show" on sirius satellite radio over here in the US that comes on every afternoon. Their guest the other day was none other than Sir Alex himself, and one thing he said that made sense was that its not the starting 1 thru 11 that gets a team where they need to be it but the 12 thru 20 that he picks, signs etc to back them up !! the subs are just as important, more so at times when suspension, injury etc come along so as to keep any momemntum going with a side just as strong as as any he could start!
My point being, up until this signing window, Stoke didnt have much to substitute when the likes of Lawrence and Mama got injured and Fuller got suspended, they had Richard Cresswell to pretty much fill in for all 3 of them. So the welcome arrival of all 4 new signees will hopefully spell good times for Stoke in the attempt to stay up !!

I can't remember the last time we had a more attractive selection to choose from! (not literally attractive, you understand  ). The selection/formation permutations are very exciting...still think we'll continue to see Dicky Cresswell though! |

We definatley have enough our squad to stay in this division this season, it all depends on how they are used by tp imho.
we now have options from the bench that can change a game.
we are staying up
