Yep I know and he looks cracking but until he’s back SS’s go to will be Laurent and Thompson. If he’s not going to start Burger and Sidibe we need a good CM so we’ve got better options than who he’s starting at the moment. He can’t surely? There is absolutely no good reason they should be starting ahead of Burger and Sidibe. Laurent should out on his arse. Why he keeps persevering with him is anyone’s guess. He offers nothing and never has done.

Pretty sure they won’t bring more bodies into an overcrowded area of the squad unless they can move some out. They’ve already shown they’re open to letting Laurent go. Last nights squad suggests the same for Baker both of whom must be on a decent wedge. DJ is also reputed to be on £15K a week but look on the bright side that’s a lot of wages we can re use if we can shift them🤞

We’re has the 6 weeks come from. I’ve still not seen anything that says what is wrong with him or a timeframe for his return. Not sure about timeframes but in the Middlesbrough match preview Pete Smith had him down as having a back injury. They’re a bastard I’ve been struggling with mine for over a week and on and off for about three decades. Hope he’s got something that is simply and permanently resolved.

It was apparently something the player didn’t even realise he had so you’d think it can’t be anything too serious? Can you get a stress fracture in your back without suffering any symptoms?

Pete Smith said time frame would be clearer after another scan

We shouldn’t be to drawn in on yesterdays performance but yesterdays pairing look like they have so much more to offer.

I’d rather watch the younger players make the same mistakes that the supposed seasoned pro’s do, at least the younger players have time to learn from them. I will genuinely cheer when Laurent departs this club.

I would have far preferred it if he hadn’t but Schu looks like he’s going to live or die by it.

Billing - only 28 with loads of experience and 6’6”.
Excellent player at this level.

I’m amazed he got through the medical if they’re not sure still about the level of the injury. He didn't. The medical flagged it up but we chose to go ahead because of his potential. He nor Celtic knew about it. I guess the insurance won't cover it so we must be confident it can be managed.

Is it 2 loans we have left?
I suspect we will activate both of those plus one permanent signing.

With players coming back and the display last night (and Lowe's goals), I would be happy with just a right back. Not saying we shouldn't try for another striker but certainly we shouldn't spend big money. We are very unlikely to get promoted this year so give our young lads the chance to prove themselves and get experience. If Ennis goes bring in someone else but another player we can develop - Cannon might fit that profile but his asking price is way too high.

Moran , Koumas , Million , Bae and Burger and Phillips from last nights team we have t go fr the top 6 while we can

Most stoke fans could pick the team but I bet it won’t be same as Schumachers
