So we aren't trusting MON and all the coaching staff to evaluate these players then? If he was up to it, surely he'd be involved and we'd be looking to extend his deal on relative peanuts. Hope he has a good career, but haven't seen enough to know how good he is - but no Stoke manager has trusted him since relegation Is the correct answer 👍

You spout so much shit 😂😂😂 He couldn't even get a game at MK Dons. It’s a cracking move for him to a progressive club under a progressive manager. What’s shit about that? Thompson is garbage and should be struggling to get a game for MK Dons. Sadly he’s teachers pet here being the ultimate nothing player. 🤷♂️ Wish him all the best. "Spouting shit" wasn't aimed at his move. I'll leave it with you.

It’s not a good look. Especially when said player is teachers pet in the same position and considerably worse.

I have to agree with Fuller, wherever he has been, on loan at MK Done, a good example, he has not set the world on fire. Maybe he will come good, maybe not, but I am not holding my breath.

Surprised at this thought he could've developed in to a decent player at this level.
Hopefully we've included a decent sell on fee.

Can't see the point unless it's a decent fee.
Young player, decent potential and minimal wages.
He's a good understudy to the midfielders we have or he won't be short of loan deals..

Whilst I would have loved the lad to do well he always came across as a bit "beige" whenever I saw him play...don't think he will be missed, or that he will pull up too many trees in League 1...still, good luck to him

The fee will be undisclosed to hide the incompetence of our transfer team.

You can't do anything other than back the manager here. He's blooded a fair few youngsters in his relatively short time here, so for him to sell Sorensen you have to be fair and say he might not be up to it.
It might turn out to be the wrong call in time but like buying players, you can't always get it right, and there's also the angle of being fair to the player and his career.
He isn't going to get ahead of Allen (if he stays), Vrancic, Clucas or Powell and Thompson is progressing. We're also talking about bringing in another body in that area too.
I wish the lad well in his career.

Let’s have a list of the players who have been overlooked by Stoke managers but gone on to do better elsewhere I’ll start with. Errrrrrr ?

2+2 = Jorge Grant 😉

Thoroughly disappointed at this. Really rated the lad. Watched him quite a lot over the years in the academy and he’s a technically very good player. I think he’ll do well at Lincoln and climb the leagues.

Undisclosed fees are frustrating but I’ve noticed it’s not just us that operate this way, it’s practically every deal in the football league.
Somewhere between 250-500k maybe? Did he have one year or two left?
