Match Day Thread Stoke City FC v Sunderland AFC – Sunday 29th December 2024 - KO 15:00

Cirkin has been awful, we need to slow it down , Roberts is the key imo.

 

Don’t want to slate the lad but he needs a lot of work, not playing him in a settled position won’t do him any favours either like

 

Should've had a pen.

 

This is why I was reluctant to say it because people just jump on it

I get that, but it doesn’t stop you doing the basics. Not in agreement with the young lad thing at this stage he’s played plenty football to know to track his man or pass a ball

 

This game isn't suited for Mayenda. As I said pre match, he wants to find space in behind but Stoke are sat deep so there's no space to run into. He isn't comfortable in little pockets trying to play 1-2s.

 

Yeah, the off the ball stuff could be better, but he's about 5th choice as a right winger so we shouldn't expect too much IMHO

 

Been the better side - Stoke are awful.

They’ve got away with a blatant penalty as well, the bastards.

 

Well this isn’t happening

 

Think this makes it harder for Milan too, get Roberts on we’ll see the real Milan I feel

 

Something that isn’t said very often

 

Aouchiche, Aleksic and Roberts playing in the spaces behind Isidor would be lovely here.

 

My biggest gripe is what we've not got the ball to Mayenda enough since Gooch got booked.

 

Don't like how many clear chances there had mind, can't be given them too many chances.

 

Ha'Way lads, early goal this half please.

 

That cheating c*nt Borja Sainz being investigated for allegedly spitting at one of our players a few weeks back.

 

I wonder if Gooch wants us to win.

 

If he did that, he needs the book throwing at him

 

Even if the book missed, he'd still fall over.

 

Yellow for Cirkin

 

If mayenda is gonna find himself one v one against gooch he has to go at him
