I honestly can't remember Mark Mcnally, has my mind blanked it out, when did he play? I think under Jordan. He didn’t play much but was consistently the oppositions best player when he did. I've just checked on Wiki, we paid £120,000 for him and he played 7 games in total, wasting lots of money even back then

McNally played for Macari at Celtic. Lou signed him from Southend on transfer deadline day 1997 (when the deadline day used to be at the end of March). Thinking about it, he would've been Lou's last signing for the club. He had a short run of games under Kamara then was one of many to leave following relegation. Anyway, back to more promising things - Andre Vidigal.

Interesting that he’s obviously been on his radar for a while too

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! A lad who I work with is a Crewe fan n he thought the Hoever vid was brilliant😂 I met someone once who’d met a Crewe fan, but can’t say I’ve met or seen one yet in the wild.

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. I tend not to watch the interviews. Words mean fuck all.

When he came on vs Burton was he played centrally or out wide? Judging by the highlights from the game he seemes central or on the left. But he seems to be able play anywhere across the front 3

He came on and played wide left, as more subs came on towards the end I think he floated around from memory.

When he came on vs Burton was he played centrally or out wide? Campbell went to the right and Vidigal was on the left. I'd say Vidigal drifted inside more compared to Chiquinho in the first half. The latter spent more time nearer to the touchline / felt more of an old-school winger.

He does look sharp, comes on for the last half an hour, scores with a well placed shot . Still has time to return the favour and set up Dwight Gayle ( who played him in for his goal ) with a glorious chance .
Pops up on the right to score today, pops on the left to set up Dwight Gayle, popped up in the middle of the goal to score on Saturday.
There is so much to like about him, his shooting is going into the inside side netting.
He keeps looking over his shoulder and looking around, as he is running with the ball .
Does so many good things.
Hope he can keep it up.
Really impressed.

He was the player I was most excited about and he's not disappointed so far.
Great balance, brave and knows where the goal is.
For a small bloke the physical nature of the Championship doesn't seem to phase him one bit.

400k from Portugal. It's why so many fans have been begging the club to go down the data driven road and look outside of the UK.
Yes you smash a few eggs but you're virtually guaranteed to find a cracking omelette along the way.

I always had a good feeling about this lad. He’s got a confident swagger
