It is this country's media and teams setting up like Manchester City that is keeping English football in the dark ages. The insistence on non-stop tippy-tappy is anti-progressive and a genuine enemy of football. Teams like Stoke are trying to lead the nation forwards and all they get is criticism.
Really, you've already ruined Gareth Barry, sell Adam Johnson to a club that tries to play football before you corrupt him as well.
WUM.... if long throw ins and kick and rush up and at em rugby/football is your thing then i feel sorry for you.

Mr Pulis disagrees with you btw......
Stoke boss Tony Pulis rates Manchester City's performance at Fulham last weekend as among the best he has seen in the Barclays Premier League and he feels the Eastlands outfit are shaping up as real title contenders under Roberto Mancini.
City swept the Cottagers aside 4-1 on Sunday to move up to fourth in a congested table, three points behind leaders Chelsea and second-placed Manchester United.
The display certainly impressed Pulis, who expects to see Mancini's expensively-assembled side challenging for top spot right through to the end of the season.
"I didn't go, but I watched it and (Stoke assistant manager) Dave Kemp went to the game," Pulis said.
"I've seen them twice this year and they are just starting to gel together. I thought the performance at Fulham - I watched the tape again on Wednesday night - was absolutely first-class.
"They were very good, as good a Premier League performance as I've seen to be honest, especially away from home.
