Andy Hinchcliffe just proving that because you've played the game, it doesn't always mean you know more than the average fan.
"Stoke playing with a back three and Jack Clarke as a wing back"
Erm, no.

Clarke is a massive upgrade on Matondo. Looking lively.

He’s not totally wrong, when we attack Norry D moves up into LM/W and we are left with a back 3. When we defend it falls back to a 451. We’ve been doing this transition constantly through every game this season. - even our own fans quibble over what system we are playing without clocking that it changes from moment to moment.

Can someone mention to Hinchcliffe we’re playing a back four🤔

Can someone tell the commentators we’re playing a back 4 and Collins is at right back 😂

First throw-in we get, the Sky goons start harping on about Rory Delap’s long throws. Such lazy fucking sports journalism.

Playing some really good stuff down the right.
Clarke is a breath of fresh air.

Decent start, passing the ball well.
Clarke looks very comfortable on the ball.

Clarke is a massive upgrade on Matondo. Looking lively. He's started his stoke career so much better.

Think the past 5 minutes is the first time this season we’ve nonchalantly been cleverly passing in and around the oppositions box. Lovely!

Good start this is.
There is one player 2 phases behind everyone else though...

Clarke’s crossing is excellent if only we had a big target man to get on the end of them!

Good start.
Hopefully keep it up for the full 90

" the games lacking intensity"
This is the most intensity we've played with all season lad

good forward play but when we get the cross in we don't have enough men in the box to make it count.

Just depends what side we’re moving the ball down. It’s 4 at the back, Collins also is supporting play when we move it down the right. Collins reluctantly and rarely goes over the half way line. It’s not really about which side - it’s whenever we have possession and attack - it’s been instructed and practiced and been done all season. It’s one that not only confuses commentators and fans but also the opposition.
