Stoke (A) Post Match thread

[ninjamonkey]

Job done without getting out of 2nd gear. Result was never in danger and felt we could have scored within seconds if they ever threatened. Stoke are going down, they were abysmal, zero fight in them. Good crowd tonight about time we started to sing about winning it.

 

[casserole of nonsense]

Stoke’s supporters had clearly been reading

I smell a rat.

Apparently taking the lead from the Stoke Sentinel.

Stoke’s supporters had clearly been reading the local newspaper beforehand. The Sentinel dedicated a section of its pre-match preview to ‘who to boo’ and the answer read: ‘Anything in blue.’

Utterly pathetic.

Come on now... Stokies can’t read, they’re still trying to figure out how to get six fingers into a glove

Voting for PFA Player of the year was done a couple of weeks ago. The ship has sailed.


City's POTY competition might be another matter, and maybe the FWA POTY because the press do have a real affinity for merlin and they vote later.

Some members of the press will vote for Silva purely because of a belief that voting for the less obvious and more subtlety talented player somehow makes them sound more knowledgeable. Still think KDB will get it though. There's little in it for me. Both dreamy as fuck.

I forgot to mention it earlier, but the pass from Gabriel to Raheem in the build-up to the first goal was absolutely wonderful. It split open the Stoke defence and made Merlin's job a lot easier.

Neither as good as Pogba though.

I was saying blue-urns.

It was a comfortable win but only because we really put a shift in. They fought very hard I thought

The doping allegations are flying again at the Sad Caf.

Just like clockwork....

They worked hard fouled a fair bit but looked very limited hence why they're next to bottom.

 

[Armaan]

Everton will be tough, our record isn’t great there. If we win that it’ll set up the derby very nicely.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Some of the comments on the BBC comments page are quite pathetic. It must be populated by 14 year olds that heard their old man mention "oil money"

 

[Thomas Hearns]

First away game I’ve managed to get to this season and it was bloody brilliant. What a privilege to watch the best team in the land come away from home and just totally sweep aside the opposition. Great performance and yet another clean sheet. Good atmosphere as well. 2 to go.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Yes but he needs to improve his 1 on 1s.
He's hopeless at times.

Even Messi fucks one on one sometimes . We play one touch football anyways.

 

[Armaan]

If we do win it against the rags will we get given the trophy after that game or will we have to wait till the end of the Season?

Depends but first we have to get permission from Liverpool if we can get trophy in March or not coz they are the champion of January month .

I thought Pep didn't like Mondays.........:-)

Anyway,while it should have been a cricket score,it was a fucking great result regardless,all the better because its another nail in the coffin of those six fingered fuckwits that cant do anything better than boo their opposition,****s.

Two more wins people,two!! ;-)

Normally I would concur FI but it will only need one more win to land our third title this decade and become the most successful club this decade breaking for all time the SKY 4 powerbase that existed and needed to be busted.

Fantastic performance, Pep rubbing it in to all and sundry with no subs until the 85th minute outlining how fresh the squad is now.

With Delph and Kun to come back soon and doing this without what will turn out to be our most productive left back to come back next season shows you how good Pep is shuffling the cards dealt.

No record is unbreakable with this man at the helm.

After the game and Manure will be offered to form a guard of honour (LOL) , we will also be able to do the rounds again at our next home game officially.
