he's scored 3 in 3 games for Birmingham, giving them 9 points out of 9, he's made a difference for them Alright poacher. Brings nothing else to the side.

Ran the game and showed our midfield up for what they are. In what way did he run the game?! We were the better side last night. The reason we lost wasnt because of Pearson. He, nor did Preston, boss the game. It was simply a tale of us not taking our chances, and then failing to do the basics from two set pieces. It was nowt to do with Pearson. We had 51% possession. They had 49% We made 275 accurate passes (72% success rate). They made 254 (66% success rate). We had a total of 14 shots. They only had 4!! We won more duels than them. We made more interceptions than them. We won more aerials than them. We literally dominated all the stats. The possession, the shots and all the defensive stats. How does all that stack up with Pearson running the game? Looking at individual stats, Pearson made 48 passes (79% accuracy). As a defensive midfielder, he made a total of 1 tackle and 0 interceptions. Clucas, by comparison, made 44 passes (82% accuracy) and also made 2 tackles and 3 interceptions. Allen made 4 tackles and 3 interceptions. Pearson didn't dictate shit. We dominated the game and failed to take any of our chances. We switched off and failed to do the basics on 2 set pieces. That was the bottom line of last night. We didnt lose because they dominated the ball or because they created more chances. Nor did they win because of some imperious showing from Pearson in front of their back 4. It had sod all to do with him. If we'd have done what we have been doing so well under MON since he came in (taking our chances and scoring goals) we would have won the game. Simple as that.

He did exactly that...last season. Tonight he did fuck all, absolutely fuck all, until they were two up and the game was gone. We couldn’t get near him tonight. Him, 8 and 11 controlled it, it was easy for them. Yes noticed number8 early in the game and thought he looked a player.Pearson was very good and the number6 stood out in central defence,never missed a header or tackle used the ball well and generally read the game superbly.The right back looks bloody useful as well.They are a good side as well as a bogey team so it was always going to be hard tonight.

Pearson gave away the ball every time in the first half, he was making blind passes, just hoofing the ball out, and Preston were under pressure as stoke dominated. If Pearson played like that for stoke Bayern would be slaughtering him

We lost because we had no control of the middle of the park. Allen and Clucas hid all game and we couldn't get the ball into areas to get it in behind for Campbell or Ince to run on to it. Pearson, their #s 8 and 11 ran the show.

They managed the game very well after they took the lead and Pearson was a big part of that, but the game was very much in our control until that point. And Alex Neill said the same, he bought Nugent on to go more direct and beat our press precisely because they couldn’t get any foothold in the game......

They completely bossed us, creating a mammoth total of 4 shots in the process. Stoke on the other hand, as a result of being completely dominated, only mustered 14.

Lot of stats to take in there. Thought it was a game of two halves with Stoke much the better in the first half and playing with confidence after a good run of results. Second half Preston made a couple of changes and together with the half time bollocking off Neil where the better side. You could see the confidence drain from Stoke and it ended up pretty comfortable with Rudd and the Preston centre halves dealing with things relatively easily aided by poor delivery it has to be said. Tom Barkhuizen went passed your left back several times and should of scored more than the one he did. Twelve goals from midfield from him, not bad for a player effectively stolen from Morecambe when they had no money to pay wages. Much better winger than MCclean in every respect and I think it reflects very badly on a club with Stokes history that you employ this bloke. My season ticket would be going back if he where to emerge anywhere near North End together with many others.

Never really felt like we'd score if we were there all night tbh. Their midfield always showed for the ball and got their attackers in behind on numerous occassions, something we couldn't do. I just thought it was like night and day the difference in midfields tbh. Clucas needed pulling at half time, he was dogshit and Allen hid when we had the ball. I really thought we were wank.

Pearson is not some part-time Perlo hiding in plain sight in the C'ship and somehow mysteriously passing under the radar of Prem clubs.
(They'll have all checked him out & rightly concluded he's a walking red when a half decent ref has the whistle and, of course VAR at his disposal.)
He'd get an Oxford first at shithousery and that's about it.
That said, we should have dealt with him (& Preston generally) a lot better than we did.
Says it all a side that bad are third.

It may not have been their best performance last night but they aren’t a bad team are they? Clearly well coached and have some very good players, would love pearson and johnson in our team.
