Match Thread | Stoke City vs Manchester City (20/08/16)

[Phil1]

It's been a tough slog but points on the board is all that matters at this stage.

 

[Neville Kneville]

So impressed with silvas work rate. Not everything is coming off for the lad but he like sterling is putting a hell of a shift in. Shows what having a proper coach who the players respect and who demands excellence can do.

All have worked hard.

Just shit finish.

 

[dubblue]

People moaning about Navas but De Bruyne's been fucking awful.

Yep he's been dire

 

[jimharri]

No hat trick today for Kun.

 

[ono]

Also Sterling was great first half but has been diabolical in the second.

 

[kupest]

Don't think we have been that bad in the second half either. I don't remember any decent Stoke chance. We have been wasteful in not shooting or poor final balls but thats about it.

 

[kevin horlocks wand]

The attackers obviously not got used to this horrible kit.

 

[Armaan]

Playing tippy tappy shit for the sake of it doesn't wash in this country and never has. Stoke are not Elche or Cordoba, they are a good team and we are taking the piss.

It will work with elite players, maybe next year.

 

[I'm Blue]

No one on the bench to replace KDB?
He looks fucked.

 

[RandomJ]

Come on Nacho get a goal.
