Finally payback to Tottenham, Shirley? 🙏 Hopefully we have a decent release clause on him.

Nothing wrong with his final ball, he's just been playing to far away from goal to have the opportunity to play a final ball that counts If we can play more attacking football as this manager obviously wants to do he will be doing his stuff in the last third far more goals and assists will follow, same for Million Having a bone fide danger man down the middle would make a huge difference too As others have said here's here for one season max unless we get promoted Stoke need to be planning on his replacement now No, I am with Benji on this one - thought he was part of the problem for the majority of the season- his stats were really poor and only improved late on. Lucky to be a Stokie and that we persevered with him for the entire season and gave him a chance at our club - this could be his season though if he continues the form he showed at the end of the season- and hopefully part of something special, and can continue his improvement at Stoke, as we sign others with the similar potential. Potential the key word though, don't think we will be fending off too may for him and he is level headed enough to know that he needs to keep working at it - needs to improve fitness and strength at this level also - he was dead on his feet and panting at the end of every game. In addition to what the poster above said also remember he had to do 50% more defensive work covering whoever what had at leftback (bar Stevens)

Great player to watch who glides pat opponents with consummate ease. Chuck in a Herculean work ethic and he has the potential to go right to the top. Just needs to add an end product to his game which separates the good from the great. Looking forward to seeing him next season He’s special. Enjoy every minute while we have him.

His stats only improved late in as that's when we started playing more attacking football ie that's when he was playing more in the last third rather than closer to the half way line

As stated by others, he'd already played a full season and was criminally underused in the early part of our season. He was a shining light in the shit for a lot of time and as the season went on he showed himself to be better and better. He's too good to be at a Championship club for much longer. He won't be, to say he was part of the problem is some of the finest manure I've seen spewed. Bravo

I couldn't believe what I was reading, thought perhaps it had been posted on the wrong thread and was talking about another player then decided it must be a wind up to get responses. 'Lucky to be a Stokie'? 'Lucky we persevered with him'? 'Part of the problem'? Once he settled and understood what was required of him he was our stand out player,never gave up, put in a shift every week, fouled as much as Nick Powell was with no protection from the ref but unlike Powell just got on with it and wasn't bullied by the thugs who tried to stop him, the one player from Xmas that I went to see when the rest of them were rubbish. He is twenty years old and yes his end product needs to improve but I enjoy watching players just for their skill sometimes.
