Burnley will probably go down like West Brom did last year for the same reason that West Brom did last year. Because they are not good enough to play great football against teams who can afford to go and spunk 200 million or so on the kind of players capable of playing that way. Doncaster stay in the Championship playing "good" football while we thrive in the Premier League playing better football. Not prettier. Not nicer to watch. But better, and clearly far more successful.
Don't deflect your own teams inadequecies on Stoke's style of play. If your way was as great as you are suggesting, you would have had no problem picking up an easy three points. You didn't, because you wern't good enough. Simples.
Your just another bitter blue who's starting to sound more like a Red.
The problem for Stoke fans arises when this football becomes tedious. Like at Bolton under Sam, fans eventually wanted a move away from the agricultural style to a more free-flowing style. I think Stoke play to their strengths but it can only get you so far.
Something will eventually have to give; people will talk about Stoke not really progressing having been in the Premier League for nearly four years, say. When this time comes, pressure will mount on Pulis. Does he stick or twist?
you spoke too much sense for me then. can we not just throw abuse at the fella and call his team shit. i know where we all stand then :)
