I see lots of people blaming Brexit for the UK getting zero points from the public 🤣🤣 whilst conveniently forgetting that we finished 2nd 2 years ago with Sam Ryder. Olly got 0 points because hes absolutely fucking awful and we fully deserved it

Ive said it before i’ll say it again Wouter Burger is the best signing Stoke have made in decades.
He just ooses class, how Stoke managed to convince him to leave Basel for Stoke I’ll never know 🤣
Would love to see him lifting the play off trophy in May 😍
Some questioned if SJW rallying cry would work it seems to have worked, atmosphere today was brilliant
Id love
@stokecity
to do us a massive favour though can we reduce the prices for the remaining 5 games to £15 for the whole ground & lets fill the ground for the remaining games
Can we talk about how good Wouter Burger actually is, struggled a bit under Neil but since Schumacher has come in hes been stunning, genuinely the closest thing we’ve had to Nzonzi since he left us.
Hope Schumacher makes him club captain now as he seems to love the responsibility
Whats with all the Souttar hate 🤯 the lads pretty much saved the club from FFP penalties he was a cracking signing for the academy who did well for us and will go on to have a cracking career.
Mentality against ex Stoke players from some Stoke fans is soo weird
Was interesting how quick Stoke fans on praise & grumble were quick to turn on Lowe and say hes not good enough for this level, i thought we were supposed to support our youngsters coming through and developing
Amazing how thick some Stoke fans are 🤣🤣🤣 seen so much criticism of Mmaee, Vidigal, Burger tonight and that we lack any quality 🤯🤯🤯 Schumacher has had 2 training sessions with these players so far and we looked miles better already
If Schumacher is to succeed here he needs the fans to buy into what hes doing, that means Stoke fans need to be patient with players and when they dont have a great game to support them and not just say they lack quality, Schumacher wants his players to play with confidence
Absolutely fair play to him, very easy to stay silent on the matter and just lay low. Get your head down work hard and come back stronger, you’ll have the fans full support if you do that
🚨Exclusive: Statement from Ryan Mmaee and his representatives.
"Ryan wants to correct the unfortunate situation and show the fans why he became a Potter. He is committed to doing what is necessary and has always wanted to be the best player he can at Stoke City"
"He is very
Hes only going to get better and better, as others said last night hes the one the club need to build around, hes captain material. If hes here in 2 years time then we’ll be in the prem as i fear thats the only way we’ll manage to keep hold of him hes that good
Wouter Burger game by numbers -
81% pass accuracy
2 big chance created
100% shot accuracy
48 touches
9 passes into final third
50% accurate long balls
100% tackles won
8 recoveries
2 clearances

Stoke need to capitalise on this once in a generation talent we have managed to convince to sign for us, we need to be going big in South Korea for marketing etc the kids going to be such a talent
Bae Junho scores with one of his first touches in international football.
There were Singaporean fans in the crowd with signs saying they love him. This is mad. 👑
I see Tezgel is the next kid who stoke fans are desperate to ruin by putting him into the 1st team before hes ready, we’ve just Delap on loan who was banging them in for fun in u21/23 football and yet stoke fans couldnt wait get rid of him.
State of the comments is unreal 🤣🤣
Quality signing for us on a 2 year deal, not every signing we make this summer will be a player under the age of 25, if they were we’d be massively missing experienced players, Johnson has been there before & fits in with what Neil wants to do
@CroftyF1
Zero to do with brexit and everything to do with the fact that our song was absolutely awful, did Europe forget Brexit when Sam Ryder finished 2nd?
And this is why Schumacher will work here, hes willing to change his approach into something that suits the team, Jones when he was here was unwilling to change how he operated.
Also the job Walters has done behind the scenes so far is stunning
Steven Schumacher 'It's been a realisation from myself; 'What are we actually good at?' I've sort of gone back to what Stoke are really good at. The last three games have looked like a team that are up for the fight'
#SCFC
Monday will be Hoevers 50th league appearance for us (if he plays) hes played by far the most games of his career for us and surely him, Wolves and Us(if the finances are available) have a big call to make this summer.
Genuinely didnt think i could like
@BoKrkic
anymore but after reading that article with him how can anybody not like him, hes a club legend in my eyes and the day he retires he should have a job for life at Stoke
The fucking state of the younger elements of our fanbase is grim as fuck, think they are all hard on here but wouldnt say half the things they say to the players faces,
If Stoke fans genuinely feel that Neil isnt the answer then who is the answer? 🤣🤣 fuck me we gave MON 3 years to absolutely destroy our squad & bring in players who mostly are league 1 at best and were taking us down this year, Neils done well with shit he inherited
Amazing photo this is and seems for once that the club have really done something that should enhance future matchdays, big well done Stoke 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How long are
@BBCRadioStoke
going to persist with this absolute shambles on commentary for Stoke. Are they trying to turn people off the station so that they dont have to put any live sport on the radio 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
8 pts off the playoffs 19 games to go all to play for still, this squad is capable of a playoff run
Also whisper it quietly but that big club on the south coast that Schumacher left are below us 🥱🥱🤣🤣🤣
Just found this on YouTube theres a small interview with him from 16mins in we’re so lucky to have him here, hes a special talent and Dublin did so well to convince him to come to us
For a first season in English football he hasnt actually performed too badly, 6 goals in 27 appearances mainly from the wing is a decent return. Will be interesting how he fairs next season(if he stays) with a full Schumacher preseason under his belt
Interesting that Radio Stoke were saying that Baker is avaliable for transfer, under Schumacher i think he’ll be like a new signing,
Heard we want a couple more in next week
Simon King has got to be one of the clubs best changes over the last few years, he seems to have really worked wonders on that side of the club
Ricardos again proving why it should be open alot more than it is, hopefully the club already have some plans for the euros to use it
A special surprise at the final thank you event of 23/24.
Ricardo Fuller joined a star-studded line-up on Friday to recognise more than 200 Season Card holders for their continued support 👏
Stoke fans debating that the club should charge more and be happy to get less fans in for a 2nd round tie 🤢
Its summer hols, money is tight £5/£10 max get a few more thousand in and see what extra we make in pies/drink/merch sales. It shouldnt even be a fucking debate 👍🏽🙄
Ive said it before this squad we have is nowhere near as bad as people have made it out to be over the season, its a squad that has quality in it but struggles when confidence dips and was/still is lacking some big characters in the dressing room
And people questioned if Neil and Martin were the right people for the job 🤣 can anyone really think that our previous incumbents of those roles would be seen dead in a local pub
Its lovely to see how fondly Stoke fans remember
@muniesa92
and also seeing how
@JonWalters19
is now a stoke fan. We had some special players in the premier league era and just intensifies the pain of being relegated with some of the mercenaries we had last season.
Most tackles per minute in the Championship:
1️⃣ Ben Sheaf - completes a tackle every 22 minutes
2️⃣ Trai Hume - 26 mins
➡️ Cody Drameh - 26 mins
➡️ Sondre Tronstad - 26 mins
5️⃣ Wouter Burger - 27 mins
6️⃣ Ryan Leonard - 31 mins

Some Stoke fans finally waking up to the fact we’re absolutely fucked by FFP, every window now depends on us selling players before we can get players in
We’ve lost 12 points so far from winning positions (thats not including the last minute winner for Sheff Wed)which is enough to have had us sitting 5/6th if we could have held on to our leads, which is why that win yesterday is such a big win for us, shows the team are capable
This link to Joon-ho Bae is probably one of the most exciting links we’ve had, Asia is one of those continents at the moment with serious amounts of untapped potential, Celtic have been one team to exploit it over the last 2/3 years and id love us to do similar
Was so annoyed at him when he left but everything he said about ambition was spot on Whilst no player should have the power to get a manager sacked, his words should have been the warning our owners needed to sack Hughes would love to get him back to Stoke one day like with Bojan
Inter are advancing in talks with Bologna to sign Marko Arnautović. Negotiations are progressing to final stages, waiting on key details. ⚫️🔵🇦🇹
Arnautović agreed personal terms with Inter weeks ago.
Ive said it all season, Burger is a future captain for this team and is who we should be building around, hes the closest we’ve had to Nzonzi since he left and is destined to play at a top team once hes done with this project.
Great to speak to

Amazed at this decision, whilst they have had a really poor 2nd half of the season, Clarke had performed miracles for them deserved a chance to refresh and regroup over the summer and go again next season

🚨 Stoke City are interested in Celtic’s Hyeok-kyu Kwon. Kwon was loaned out to St Mirren during the winter transfer window last season and never seemed to make it into Celtic’s squad. Kwon is currently valued at around €800k and a permanent transfer seems most likely.
Genuinely dont get the hate some fans have for Macron, made some of the best kits we’ve had in decades, at least Macron actually give a shit about us and dont jsut give us catalogue kits that any sunday league team can buy like Adidas/Nike would
If theres any truth in the rumour that Jones has already agreed to take over at Huddersfield but doesnt want his 1st game to be against us due to the abuse he believes he will get then it shows just how egotistical the man is
He looked decent when he first signed but appeared to be a little lightweight and easily bullied off the ball but since Xmas hes been a totally different player hes definitely put in the work at the gym and hes reaping the rewards now
I reckon Schumacher will put Mmaee and Junho on the Bojan muscle building regime that Hughes did to get him used to the rough nature of english football
Campbell will go elsewhere and score goals, its just not worked out for him at times here, last 4 games youve seen the real Tye at work and that version of him scores 15/20 goals a season, especially under a manager like Schumacher, who wants to play attacking football
Hey
@stokecity
i see we’ve loaned a striker out today and we could do with signing a replacement. Well a certain Catalan/Spanish international is still avaliable on a free transfer. Give him a call i’m sure he’d be interested 😉
Preseason friendlies for prem teams must be so boring as they just play other prem teams but in different countries. Used to love Stoke playing Newcastle Town every year and then going to Austria and playing a random German team 🤣
Can
@stokecity
please make sure that Paul gets his own Academy twitter account for next season, he does an amazing job for the club ensuring that fans know when the academy are playing and he should be able to tweet from a Stoke account
Just seen that supposedly Lee Grant is leaving Man U this summer and also Ben Fosters leaving Watford, would Stokies have either of them back to help Bursiks development? Personally think either would be a cracking move
If Eustace gets the job then we deserve everything we’re going to get, terrible manager who had a good 7/8 games at the start of this season and thats it
Brilliant 5 game period for Stoke 11 from 15 and unbeaten is absolutely just what we needed. People were calling on Neil to be sacked at the last break so nice to see that Neil has proven many wrong. 2 weeks now to recharge and work on some stuff on the training ground
The abuse some so called fans give people like Lee is unreal, they will be the 1st desperate for news in Jan when the window opens.
Just shows one of the reasons why the club has been shit for so long when so many will fall for the lines pushed out by the club via the local press
This 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 after all the years of dross weve had this is extremely refreshing, yes theres areas we still need to improve and work on but this is a very exciting time to be a Stoke fan, we may not get promoted this season but i think we’ll actually get closer than people think
Bauer & Berahino come to mind with this but I must admit I’m sick and tired of listening to people like Crouch constantly talk about Stoke, its boring, repetitive and a kick in the teeth to fans especially when he clearly was doing fuck all to change it
Wonder what the future holds for young Hoever, will have been here for 18 months at the end of the season (will actually be one of our longest serving members of the squad), Wolves wont want him youd imagine and still has 2 years left on his contract this summer
Id certainly hope Stoke would be interested, not had the best spell in the prem but is a very solid Championship keeper who knows what it takes to get out of the league and on a free transfer as well
Sheffield United goalkeeper Wes Foderingham is on his way out of the club.
They’ve failed to reach an agreement on a new deal.

Been having a bit of a dive into Hulls supposed new manager elect Tim Walter and I must admit I’m a tiny bit jealous if they pull it off.
He started his coaching career at Bayern and his last job was at Hamburger in Bundesliga 2 where up he had a win record of 49% over 104 games
What a bunch of weirdos, dont think even Luton, Derby or Sunderland were this rattled when we took their manager from them.
Good job X didnt exist when we took Pulis from them otherwise theyd have been holding a 20 year grudge on us
Im pretty certain i was told by a few people on here that we wouldnt soend 5mill on a player this window and im also sure that people were sure we wouldnt have a transfer budget of more than 10mill - i believe this takes us close to 15mill spent so far
Seen people writing off Vidigal and saying to get rid. No, he hasn’t set the world on fire apart from his 5 goals in August/September, but there’s still a player in there.
Many foreign players really come to life in their 2nd season, I think he could be class next year.
Wow seems like Hanley Town have been forced into a backtrack over there link up with Man City. Incredible that people cant see the bigger picture, it was an incredible opportunity for the club and their academy to be linked with Man Citys Academy would be a dream for those kids
