Correct, the much vaunted 'giants' of Stoke's back line were sure they could intimidate our smallish forwards, that ended well for themI think the big problem the vermin will have is dealing with our quick passing game, the speed that we switch play and the pace out wide. Their back four is hardly blessed with pace and the midfield although big and strong are not overly mobile, with most of them comparable to a snail in a wheel clamp. If toss bag parks the bus it will be a long ninety minutes for them because I have no doubt we will have our usual high percentage of possession and if they come at us we'll tear them to pieces. Barring an absolutely calamity I think we will give them a bit of a footballing lesson.

Rag on 606 tonight agrees.How embarrassing it must be for them that the only way they can beat us at the swamp is by parking the bus lol
How times have changed!
I am not sure Pep managing at the swamp is a thought most of us want to explore.
Let us just rejoice that currently they have a Portuguese David Moyes. Let us rejoice in the fact that not only are they absolutely dreadful to watch but they are infact incredibly shite as well.

3 shots on target and 69% pass completion. I wonder how the rags will react when Jose parks the bus at home to us in Jan. That game is going to be one-way traffic
Spending £500m on a bus seems a tad expensive don’t you think?It's pragmatic. You play according to the talent available. That's management, coaching and playing talent.

Depends. If the bus barges all of the F1 beauties of the track and gets over the line in 1st place then I'm sure it would be seen as money well spent. Even more so if it's bright red with a Blakey-like twat of a conductor in charge.
LolI hate you, Guardiola!
They may (I don't believe they will) finish second, but that is not the same as saying they will push us all the way. If they finish second it will be because the rest are shite, but they will not be close to us IMOFor a so called poor side the rags are doing ok, they'll push us all the way imo and finish 2nd
They won't push us all the way.For a so called poor side the rags are doing ok, they'll push us all the way imo and finish 2nd
This hoof it and run with a load of big blokes is shit to watch but peg has made millions and won titles and champs league doing it as it works for him. They are scum and we hate them but don't write them off too easily shit teams have won the premium before look at the piscans last title.Depends.
