Us: 5/31 successful crosses. Them: 5/13 successful crosses. We've got to sort this out. Browns crossing was woeful.

Should have scored more but a win is a win. He needs to stop shitting it and stick to 4-2-3-1 Gritted teeth...... Not at all, credit where its due, not very often it's been deserved this season.

Given our attacking options are pretty shit. Clarke has to be one of the first names on the sheet every week

Well done Stoke and a good performance. Could’ve been more, but plenty of chances created and plenty of consistent attacking intent.

That Horgan looks more like a brickies mate than a footballer Jon Parkin's brother!

Clarke is a classy player, hope we get him on loan again next season He'd hardly kicked a ball in anger for 12 months before he joined us. With another 8/9 games under his belt this season and a pre-season I think he could be some player for us..... Typical young winger/inside forward issues - lacks end product and runs into too many dead ends. TOB and Brown are kind of similar but Clarke looks more natural and I've got higher hopes for him. Happy if he sticks around.

Steady 90 mins by Clarke. Probably his best game. I agree - he deserves a run of games now. He's been one of our two or three best players second half. There is great potential and it will only be realised if he gets to play more games. In terms of his final ball he is everything Brown isn't at the moment.

Why is he an insult. Shame we don’t have a goal scorer like him. He’s been around the EFL and made a success at most clubs he’s been at. 225 career goals ain’t too shabby is it? He's been good in league 2 to be fair. Still better than Vokes To be fair he's three stone lighter though

Really enjoyable game of football...should've won by at least 5 or 6, but the non-stop desire to attack at pace was a breath of fresh air...long may it continue

Trainers need a good few sessions with him on that, I hope he sorts it out. It wasn't just him as well, Smith was misfiring today and we know that crossing is one of the things he can do.

I'm actually glad we have got out of the habit of constantly drawing games.
Last 6 games, won 3 lost 3 which accumulates more points than drawing them all !
Good to see the defence getting among the goals as well.We cant keep relying on Powell and Fletcher to bail us out.

Well we huffed and puffed but we got the job done. Don't know why he persists with Mikel and Allen when he has decent subs in Thompson and Cousins. Jack Clarke is a decent footballer Brown and Tashan are about on a par and that is very wasteful. Tashan should start next timeand let us see if he is an improvement.

Fuck off, Swansea, you lucky bastards!
Is there a campaign to get some Welsh representation in the Prem or something?!

Sounds a churlish thing to say, but you can't really take much from that. They have to be the worst team I've seen at this level. An appalling side.
However, you can only play what's infront of you and approach the game in the right manner.
We did that and thought we were very good from the first to last whistle. We deserved far more goals than we got.

What was the point of Mantondo signing if we bring ToB before him 🤷♂️ I imagine the fact he has only trained properly for one day in 3 weeks means we only want to use him in an emergency. Seems sensible to me

It wasn't just him as well, Smith was misfiring today and we know that crossing is one of the things he can do. I think Brown has been the most frustrating players ive seen in a Stoke shirt for a good few seasons.....and that takes some doing. The Barnsley fans assessment of him before he came here was bang on,hes fit and a trier and gets in great positions but has absolutely no fucking idea what to do with a football and seems to have as much strength as the England cricket teams batting line up.
