Bohui is to old for this level

 

[Nicklas]

Puigmal (#11) starts on the left, gonna be good to finally see him in action. Greenwood (#10) aswell.

 

[Class of 63]

Louis Macari, Grandson of Luigi on the bench for Stoke City,

Louis Macari, Grandson of Luigi on the bench for Stoke City,

Lewis apparently, not Louis, he's a centre-half, he made his u18 debut in February as a 15 year old.

Where is Gomes?

Man, I've been wanting to watch him play. He hasn't really played much in the last 2 weeks after his Japan performance.

 

[KM]

Garner captaining the side is a surprise.

 

[TRD]

Rested

Is there any chance he will be today at Stamford Bridge??

 

[SkeppyRed]

Decent goal for Stoke but they've barely been in our half.

Barely noticed Puigimal so far.

Hmm I've heard that he's hungover from last night.

Decent goal for Stoke but they've barely been in our half.

Barely noticed Puigimal so far.

Odd move to put Puigmal out wide and Barlow CM, they are both versatile but normally it's the other way round.

 

[khoazany]

Puigmal should have done better with his shot there. Laird did well beating the defenders.

 

[SkeppyRed]

United creating very little.

Garner has done well.

 

[DirtyWars]

Impressed with Laird today, had some really good runs going forward.

 

[Prodigal7]

Disappointing performance from Puigmal but I can't understand why he wasn't playing centrally, that's where he's consistently shown his class. Garner is becoming one of my favorite players.

 

[Mr. Glue]

I couldn't put a picture of what we could have done. I thought Stoke did well. The major problem was the injury to Barlow at the end. He didn't look good and really struggled with assistance to get back towards the bench

Couldn't understand why it took ages for someone to come and help the physio with Barlow. He was clearly in pain and couldn't walk, while hurt at the far end of the pitch. Hopefully forcing him to walk till the assistance arrived did not aggravate the injury.
