I wonder if a player swap is in the offing…. 2+2 = Jorge Grant 😉 The Peterborough one?

I’ll never buy the manager judgement argument in the past 5 years tbh. 😂 All of them have been tragic judges of players at their disposal. Ok. 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 ? Wasn't Bayernalso slating the club and MON when we sold Verlinden? He's gone on to massive things hasn't he?????? Bayern we know you detest Allen, Thompson and most of the squad actually so give you head a rest for a bit please.

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? He was contracted with us until June 2023. Seems odd that he came on as a sub at Linfield and we are getting so thin on the middle. Maybe he had something in his contract that his wages would increase/lump sum triggered after making his senior appearance(s) and that on evaluation, considering what we need he wasn’t worthy of the investment.

Some people just want to see the world burn. No I just want to see us do well. Keeping someone like Thompson over Sorensen makes that harder. Neither of them are good enough, that’s the truth of the matter.

Take Gregory, Ince, McClean, Vokes out of the equation and our squad is looking paper thin.

[/quote] MON should have been sacked so no.

You really are such a predictable, boring arsehole, I'll be quite honest I'd settle for Sam Vokes being at the club for another two years if we could transfer you to another messageboard instead.

Possibly not but i know which one is the better player and is more likely to get to the standard required. It’s a cracking move for him though.

Now that we have some people who can accurately cross a ball Big Sam may score loads of goals for us. Bayern don't take him up on it, he doesn't really mean it.

Clarke was dogshit. Matondo had one and a half good game and didn’t show much of a footballing brain. Verlinden has done nothing thus far in his senior career. For me, Clarke was exactly like Verlinden. Great ball control, pretty tricky…contributed nothing. Clarke has at least had a purple patch in his youth big enough to get a large money transfer to Spurs. Matondo is on the outskirts of playing for his country and similarly, warranted a big money move to Schalke. Verlinden was so unlucky to get injured after the loan to Bolton, but he’s done absolutely nothing since then.

Looked ok on the ball but didn’t really see much in the rest of his game, he certainly didn’t look like an imposing midfielder. More than happy to trust the judgement of MON on this one.

So that puts the question of whether Sorensen could be our flash new RWB to bed then!

I’d actually take a punt on either permanently for no more than 250k as both showed glimpses. Clarke for instance is a number 10 and a tidy footballer. He just isn’t a winger. Matondo did have pace and is young so could learn. Neither were an improvement on what left though.

Barring the U23s, we have Thompson, Powell, Vracinic, Allen and Clucas…Allen and Clucas both coming back from time off.

Allen looks in better nick than Clucas ATM O'Neill has said he wants another midfielder of course.

Looks like many of the players who MON deemed ‘nowhere near ready and need loaning out’ are going to be playing quite a bit of football this season.

Bayern is salty because another of his favourites has been released Every game that I saw Lasse play, just like Verlinden he seemed lightweight with a bit of technique, but generally a nothing player. I hope he does alright in a league more suited to him. I'm more than happy keeping Thompson, a much better player all round.

Brilliant, that’s a total top drawer response 😆 Little Verlinden who has played 90minutes of footy for his new club in over half a year and has a market value of £225,000 is better than 2 wingers who are worth around £4-5m and owned by bigger clubs than ourselves.
