I said just as talented. Not on about performances Some on here would not know a footballer if he hit them between the eyes. Ditto Clayton Wood!

Give what up? The question was about talent. Bojan is the most talented footballer to play for Stoke in a very long time - I think probably ever, but no doubt the old timers would come at me for that. Anyone who thinks Arnie was more talented than Bojan is probably the kind of pervert who flogs the silly notion that Ronaldo is better than Messi 😉 Bojan may indeed be one of the most talented players to play for Stoke in recent years but most is a matter of opinion. As for ever he's not even top ten and I'm not particularly old! Go on then give us your ten, I could do with a giggle 😉

The comment I’m responding to is about footballing *talent*, not what they offered Stoke overall. If you’re going to tell me Robert Huth was more talented than Bojan, maybe you’re confused and think we’re talking about a different sport or something 😋

Arnie = most talented football player seen in a stoke shirt for more than 25 years Hoekstra Shaq RF10 Bojan pre-injury But he's definitely in that pantheon. None compare to Mama.

How the hell can N'Zonzi not be on that list? Can't help feeling that Bould and Dixon did all of their best work with Arsenal and were still in the promising with potential with us.

Nick Powell absolutely hates Stoke btw... If that's true I'd say it's a step up from the bus load we've had playing for us over the last few years. What's the saying again, better to be loved or hated than not cared about at all?

Nzonzi is on the list. Both Bould and Dixon were cracking players for us, they both went straight into arsenal's starting eleven and were half of one of Arsenal's best rearguard ever and they only cost them a combined 790k.

Can't wait for when he signs and the interviewer welcomes him with the opening question of "so, we've heard you hate Stoke.. bollocks or what?"

If his performances were as good post injury do you seriously think he would be plying his talents around at a Club languishing at the arse end of the EFL ? In the big picture of things I think Stoke were just a stepping stone on his way back from the wilderness. I said just as talented. Not on about performances It’s a pity that he couldn’t bring his undoubted talent from the training ground onto a football pitch in a full blooded match ? Numerous managers/Coaches have witnessed Bojan at closer quarters than we are privileged, and after numerous runs in teams at varying standards they all came to the same conclusion, he’s fucked !

I must have imagined all the Premier League games he won for us then, not to mention the hundred appearances he made for one of the best club teams the world has ever seen. Still, at least you acknowledged his undoubted talent 👍🏼

Worse goal scoring average than SJW at Stoke. Yes, but you have to take into account that Huth was a central defender, so it’s a bit unfair to compare goal scoring averages ?

Not sure what that's got to do with Nick Powell though.
