The post match interview on official Stoke website, was hardly a battle cry about how we bounce back. He looks like he really can't be arsed to answer the questions. They'd be better off not interviewing him.

I was saying to the guys around me a couple of weeks ago, watch him closely.? He will make sure he’s close enough to be noticed but not close enough he has to actually commit to a tackle. Everyone then agreed he was shit Baker is the same - reverted to type on saturday, hide and seek champion 2024.

Absolute insult to the club that this guy not only gets to wear the red and white shirt every week, but leads the side out as captain. He's a disgrace and he's shit.

He didn't pick himself to play wide right forward I am sure.

Apart from a free kick Baker has shown nothing since returning, carried on as he left before his injury.

His piece on Stoke TV was probably not the way to go in hindsight, it had egg on his face almost immediately😳. He and Baker when in midfield together, just don't cut it, in fact Baker, apart from dead balls and shooting, is a liability and rarely offers much else..

You put Pearson in the mix and it's a midfield trio to make you shudder. Laurent is to me one of the biggest frauds at the Club. Captain? FFS

Should've put that header away. Fucking woeful miss. That should be at least on target. Complete fanny of a footballer. Follows on nicely from his shit header at Cardiff and passback v Leeds. He gives it the big one after Preston, thinks he's done enough, so takes another day off v Norwich. His positional sense on Saturday was a big cause of our problems, too happy to let others do the hardwork (appreciate most followed his exemplary captains behaviour)!

3 of the last 5 goals have been down to him in my opinion 2 against WBA and the first one tonight

He’s been an utter disaster as Captain.
I think he’s average at best usually but had been even below that recently
I’m sure we’ll here some banal guff from him this week about us all be in this together and bouncing back
For such a big man he’s a fanny

Whatever you think of him, he just isn't captain material. I actually cannot think of a worse candidate in the entire squad to be the captain, maybe Vidigal. Both wank, both should be out the door come June.

Both wank, both should be out the door come June. Got it because there was only him and the bloke who mows the grass at the first day of pre-season. I appreciate it's difficult for Schumacher to come in and change that, but he absolutely had to. He literally possesses non of the things you'd want in a captain/leader. The appointment caused so much damage for Alex Neil at the start of the season where he was starting despite being atrocious game on game. But as soon as we next pick up a draw somewhere, people will tell you he should be here next year along with Baker, Hoever, McNally etc

For such a big youth he's weak as piss. It's hard to put my finger on it as on the odd occasion he's shown what he can do for us but those occasions are far too rare. It's more disappointing that he doesn't do it regularly because I think there is a good player in there but we just don't see enough of that player he can be on his day.

If you watch just after the final whistle Laurent and Baker go upto Tymon chatting with arms around each other, while Burger goes straight to the referee to complain, thats the difference.

There’s not many we’ve had play for us even recently that I loathe.
Laurent is one though.
There just isn’t a redeeming feature.

He’s neither of the following: Intelligent Technical Quick Strong Defensive Attacking A Leader Like Ennis I assume they only ever become professionals and developed through youth systems because they were tall and strong for the age group. Something clubs focused on more than technical ability for a long time.

All to many are like this. Choose to be straight ng to gain an advantage or fall to the bloody floor for one. There players our players , just makes the game a bit wank.

Was it dozy Josh who played them on side for their first goal? To go alongside his dozy ball watching for West Brom’s first on Saturday?
