Rubbish agenda my arse. He’s awful and has been one of the biggest reasons we got relegated and nearly got relegated again on the pitch. Us capitulating like that with him on the pitch is exactly what you’d expect. It’s what we’ve done since he signed. He’s defensively indisciplined, but so are all of others apart from Cousins. Agreed and I have said so and I wanted Mikel dropped for Cousins as you know (and incorrectly took the piss ).

Your memory fails you, Bayern. He was one of our best players from the moment M.O.N. arrived. A manager who knows where to play him and how to get the best out of him.

Fucking hell. I hope Joe doesn’t read this board. Back after a potential career ending injury, hardly kicked a ball and some numpties are whining about how shit he is.
I for one am glad he’s back. He’s a decent player who was simply guilty of trying to do to much in a struggling side.
I’ve every confidence that MON will get the best out of him and we’ll reap the rewards.

Gave us the composure we needed in the middle today.
A very welcome return.

One of our best players and will be very influential for the rest of the season. If you look at the stats, even under NJ, they don’t lie. Joe Allen is comfortably good enough for our first 11 and I hope he stays fit now and is a mainstay in the team. Don’t believe the bullshit, he’s going to be our main man now.

A fit Joe Allen alongside Mikel and Clucas gives us one hell of a midfield 3.

The only reason to rush him back into matchday squad, is to show he's back to fitness before the January window, here's hoping anyway.

He will be the first name on Michael O'Neill's team sheet once he's fully fit. Strange that, considering he is one of the main reasons why we are wank.

Am sure if they do they just laugh their ass off at some of the complete idiots who knock them and rightly so. Every club has them as we've seen today on other threads. Great to see Allen back. I doubt a few simpletons who have achieved nothing will get to him or any other player

Him displacing Bojan from the side was nothing to do with it. Joe Allen has been an unmitigated disaster for this club.

A fit Joe Allen alongside Mikel and Clucas gives us one hell of a midfield 3. Cousins and Powell are the only two who should be almost guaranteed a place in the midfield when we play 4231. None of the 3 names have shown they can defend when they have put a Stoke shirt on.

Have we rushed him back? Looked the part today in glimpses and will do him no harm at all. Is a good player and the more time he gets the better for all.

Honestly Bayern - I've been on this board and the one before for many years, and now my involvement is more to watch than post...but this crock of horses dung has awoke me from my slumber. You speak a load of bull at the best of times, but if you truly believe this you are blinder than a blind man down a blind alley. Behave. Him displacing Bojan from the side was nothing to do with it. Joe Allen has been an unmitigated disaster for this club.

He was no loss to Swansea when he left for Liverpool. Liverpool improved dramatically when he left for Stoke. Stoke have suffered since the day he walked into the joint. We haven't missed him since his long term injury, we've actually improved. Absolutely no evidence to suggest we will be worse without him. If he is so important to us like you, MON and others make out, why rush him back unnecessarily?

You speak a load of bull at the best of times, but if you truly believe this you are blinder than a blind man down a blind alley. Behave. How is it? We had a massive hole in the midfield and that exposed the defence. On the pitch that was our biggest issue. But Stoke fans love someone running around a lot even when that running is of detriment to the team. His signing is what made Hughes think we could play 3 at the back because he saw him do it for Wales. That is what cost us. He thought we could build a team around Joe Allen. He changed his whole game plan because of Joe Allen. He is absolutely one of the worst signings in this clubs history and has done masses of damage.

You quoted earlier on a different thread that Clucas would be a good shout for left back. Don’t tell me, you think he could defend as a defender but can’t as a midfielder.

His defending didn’t come into it with agreeing to that being a good idea.

And he’s the best at the other stuff like crossing, passing and his set pieces this season have been excellent. And has played there before. So it makes sense.

Tbh I personally think MON will persist with 3 centre halves whilst Fox is out. Clucas could be an option along with McClean and Tymon to play that wing back role. Especially if he’s got Allen and Mikel available in the middle. Oh and for what it’s worth I actually think Clucas could perform as a LB in a flat 4 if needed.
