Can't say our international recruitment team hasn't been hard at work. Some great links and from it seemingly a few great signings this window already.

The lad has very skinny arms, I predict a heavy gym schedule. Conroy was no bodybuilder,spindly legs.  Ah yes, TC - remember him surging down the line and smashing a long range goal at the Stoke End, in the 5-0 (thrashing) of Arsenal. Amazing what spindly legs and speed can do. |

And we've also learned from our Eastern European cousins Alex's middle name being Francis. And his first name is Alexis |

Hi guys, Serbian guy hear. First of all, many of you have asked here and on twitter about the pronounciation of his name. Jojić is pronounced roughly as Yoyich. O is short and more like o in optic than like o in Yo!. Ić(ich) is the standard Serbian name suffix and the ch part is pronounced like c in italian ciao and not lick tch in butcher. Nikola is pronounced like Nicholas without the s. Hope it helps and I hope it's written in a way that is understandable  Jojic is coming to Stoke from a club that's usually either midtable or in the lower end of Serbian league and this is by far their biggest transfer in history. The town where his club is from has around 3k people and the stadium can host around 6k people, although the stadium is usually very far from being full. I'm saying this as I think you'll have to be very patient with him, because, playing in such big crowds like he will be playing in England will be a huge change. On top of that, he's very young and this will be his first time moving out of Serbia. As a player, he's capable of playing on either wing or as a "number 10". He's, direct, fast and skilful. Loves to shoot, but also to cross. He was a surprise inclusion in our youth national team for many that didn't know he's quality or haven't seen him before. He's a very humble,,nice, hardworking guy and I'm sure that if you give him time, once he adapts to living and playing in a new country he'll be a star. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. P.S. Username I picked is how you spell and pronounce Stoke City in Serbia |

The lad has very skinny arms, I predict a heavy gym schedule. I recall an article about David Beckham that said he went through a period of bulking up in the gym and his game suffered quite badly so he gave it up and got his game back. Ablongahor at villa was the same. Started out a rapid nippy little striker with an eye for goal. Bulked up, lost his speed and drifted into obscurity. Videgal is hardly dolph lungdren, yet noone is talking about his diminutive frame? He just needs to grow into himself and learn how to adapt to the physical side in his own way. |

Amazing what spindly legs and speed can do. They were more than spindly, they looked like reeds, pale insubstantial things that must have given the defenders of the time the giggles, that was until he took them to the cleaners and wafted past them effortlessly. Wonderful player and vastly underrated. |

Thanks for a warm welcome everyone. scfcno1fan We’ll see. I watch a lot of Championship and PL anyway, but I will definitely look out for Stoke more than usual. I hope both Nikola and Stoke do well this season. @laughing Gravy It’s probably noticeable that my post wasn’t written by a native speaker  . I like to join English speaking football forums whenever a Serbian player joins a club from an English speaking country or when a club from an English speaking country draws a Serbian club in European competitions, and try and give insights into that player/club. owdestokie2 I’ll watch whenever it’s televised in Serbia, either live or I’ll play it back later on, and of course if I have time. Love to watch all Serbian players that play abroad, especially in England. maine We actually usually pronounce foreign names decently (providing that the transcription is good), as in Serbia one letter is one sound. So we would write Tyrese Campbell’s name like "Tajris Kembel" and it would sound close to what it should (in some cases with a strong Serbian accent though ) I would also recommend these two twitter threads (I think one was already posted here) for more in depth tactical analysis(they both do a good job of scouting him): |
