Not sure about this tactic to be honest, At Hull i thought we got away with it, mostly due to them being crap, and Corty did okay.
Its just that Ryan does not look comfortable there at all, the turning point today was when Pugh came on at left back and did very well, and Wilko who was solid again went to his proper position of right back.
Ryan is a top centre back but is not good enough in possession and with the ball to play right back through no fault of his own i may add and i hope we don't see this much next season.
Any way what a day, and what a season! GO AAAARRRRNNNN STOKE!!!! ;D

To be honest i would say the only decent out an out full-back we have at the club is Wilko. Higgy has done well at left-back but he's a far better centre-back, and you could argue Pugh is more suited to central midfield. Left-back should be our priority position to strengthen this summer.

We need at least one defender who looks reasonable going forward IMHO. I'd bet that was on TP's list already.

I think we have missed Higgy to be honest at times, really thought Pugh did well today when he come on, he is just a bit in consistent

Heard TP on the radio on the way home and he said he gave Leon 45 mins at CB as a reward for his game at Hull.

I heard that mate but still don't get it really, Cort did okay at Hull but we have two defenders in the back four playing out of position in Ryan and Wilko, and we have two full backs on the bench in Kelly and Pugh but never mind eh?  |

was very loyal of TP, but he knows where his best position is. He wanted the squad to have a nice day out

Shawcross anywhere on the pitch in a stoke top come August would do me!
There'll be plenty of "big" clubs having a sniff over the summer
