Tweed and Dyson had to be up there for rubbish Centre halves. Mark Higgins wasn’t much cop either.

You must be very young if Chester is the worst CB you’ve seen for Stoke. I'm 32 and can think of a host of calamity defenders haha Chester was finished, but the worst?... nah. Exactly. Easy to lose perspective sometimes. At the risk of sparking PTSD in some posters I’ll just throw three names at you….. Mark Mcnally Steven Tweed Nicky Mohan

The more I see Thompson the worse he seems to get. I don't think it's possible to get any worse, I've seen better at Alsager week in week out. I agree.Watching him last night it was obvious he's not going to be good enough if this new dawn of speed and press is what we are after...everytime the ball game came to him any momentum stopped.

Mohan, to be fair, wasn’t all that bad. Still think Chester was a far better player. Williams was horrendous. And those shorts.

That’s a great video, fair play.
Always amazes me these young lads who obviously know multiple languages.
Seems hungry and very passionate to play. Looking forward to hopefully seeing him perform well.
Good to see Jared and AN explaining the rationale behind signings as well. When has that happened in any detail before?

I like the sound of him, think he'll be a fan favourite very quickly.

The most cynical Stoke fan couldn’t fail to be impressed by that interview! Bayern is the ultimate test on here. And there's a few idiots at the ground I know will be fuming when he doesn't track back in his first game.

Seems a focused and grounded fella. Good luck and welcome. I can see him drawing a lot of fouls which could lead to goals as well as easing pressure when we are under the cosh.

Haven’t been this excited about a new player in years…sod the multi million pound deals, I’m all for these type of deals. Speaks really well.

Wasn't he wearing a seat belt in the car, he'll be getting a fine like Sunak? 😉
Great video, speaks well, looking a good signing, let's hope he does it weekly out on the pitch.

I've said it before but the media side of the club is excellent right now. These videos are very well produced and put together. I really like the cutting to and from the different personnel involved in the deals and the different angles it's putting on them. Good to hear from Dr. Google and the research that has gone into the signing - especially the bit about looking beyond the relegation and specifically at the data within that team that was relegated. I know a lot of people aren't that bothered by it and fair enough. I think it just looks so much more professional and just puts a good slant on the club. The reveal videos have been really 'lively and inventive' too, and as we well know, you can never have too much of that in your club! Seriously though, keep it up Stoke because it really is excellent!

Top class in that interview. Sounds determined and ambitious, excited by him. Hopefully we’ve unearthed a real gem
