Mmmm changing the system to suit Joe, not sure I like that idea one bit. It's going to bite us on the arse doing shit like that. Mentions it around, just before, 2 mins into interview

The Lee blakeman show seems to have dropped off now on that link?.

Thanks Fuller. Slightly concerned that he seemed to think Badou was not sorted?.

Thanks Fuller. Slightly concerned that he seemed to think Badou was not sorted?. He seemed to say he left all the outgoing stuff for people on the periphery to Scholes and Aldridge, and he concentrated on incomings. But Al-Ain don't seem to have officially confirmed it either yet

I wish she’d ask him about Matondo and why it was so late before we saw any attacking substitutions, she has a tendency to put words in his mouth and it’s all a bit too nice for my liking.
We played pretty well but we need another option rather than waiting until the last few minutes to change things, Reading used their subs wisely and really came into it in that last 20 minutes. McClean should’ve been taken off, and I don’t mind him bringing on Brown and Vokes (we have no other option with the current squad) but it has to be earlier if you actually want to give them chance to make an impact.
I am fully behind MON but it has been such a long time since we won, he has to find a way to score with the players he has, we can’t go on drawing every week. Put Matondo on, and maybe Vokes/Brown and play TWO strikers for the last 15-20 minutes, then we might see a goal. If it costs us at the back so be it, but I’d love to see us try and win a game once in a while.

I could have sworn Angela Smith asked him about Matondo and he said he needed more time🤔He’s his own man and doesn’t suffer fools gladly in my opinion,he will certainly put any interviewer to task if necessary

George Andrews is like the Peston of Stoke City conferences isn't he. His questions last longer than the answer.

Worries me when he says we expect Norwich to be on the front foot from the start. Surely we need to be doing something about that and going for it!

He talks such sense, unbelievable that some Stoke fans would not want him as our manager. Clearly has a plan and the desire to see it through.

He talks such sense, unbelievable that some Stoke fans would not want him as our manager. Clearly has a plan and the desire to see it through. I agree. He said top half is his objective, which he’s on curse to do, top 6 a bonus and pointed to finishing 15th and 16 th in the last 2 seasons and thoughts of automatic promotion being unrealistic on the back of that. Also, said he doesn’t really listen to or was aware some fans feeling the season is over. He doesn’t sound like he going anywhere, the board will be aware of his objectives and seemingly be happy with that. The fans won’t have an impact on his destiny, especially with an empty ground. We’ve tried the good at this level manager in Rowett, we tried the up and coming with Jones, both flopped. Can’t see the board having the desire to change things again given the financial impact of that and basically he’s doing a good job in the circumstances. Plus, who would come here and do any better with the players we have, most of which he didn’t sign, doesn’t want or don’t want to be here.

I do feel this week is very much make or break for our season. On paper anything less than 7 points would not be good..

What I pick up from that interview is that we will be setting up not to lose , and he’s given up on the play offs 🤷♂️
