Stoke post match thread

[OldGit]

I feel happy this morning after that result. Job well done.

Gritty determined performance. Well done city. Not great performance but a wins a win! Tiatto was great, MOTM without doubt IMO. Sylla didn't play well for me, he offered nothing going forward at all and lost the ball a lot when he had possesion. OK he tackled back a bit more than usual, but he should be doing this every game!

Welcome SF.

Well done City, we're looking up now...

 

[Durham Fox]

I prefer this approach to post match comments

Good win, nice to see us grind out a result. It's a shame our midfield 2 still look like individuals and not a unit but hopefully that will come if we can start selecting a settled 2.

Pretty poor game overall with not a great deal of quality from either side. They had the best of the first half for me, and we shaded it in the second. Game changed when they had to sub their centre half at half time - and Hendrie seemed to give up towards the end

Logan looked shaky, Johnson was awful, and Hughes was less than average - saved himself with an excellent goal. McCarthy, Tiatto and Hume were outstanding, though

But it's three well-earned points won by grit and determination - and you just cannot fault this group of players as a whole right now. For sheer effort we take some beating. It's top stuff


Kelly Out, anyone........???

Logan didn't look himself yesterday. Could it be that he feels more comfortable with the presence of kisnorbo/mcauley?

[highland fox]

We won thats all the matters
Said from day one Johnson would be shite.Not a case of being past it,he never had it in the first place,why didc we get him? because he was cheap thats why

Kelly Out, anyone........???

Within the context of the takeover Kelly does represent a considerable risk. I am not sure I would want to hand over a sizeable transfer kitty or entrust promotion to an unknown, unproven and inexperienced manager.

As much as the message from MM is that he will leave things as they are, this is also the same person that came out with that statement to the Pompey fans. He will say what fits his requirements and I have no argument with that.

Realistically Kelly will not be in the same capacity in 3 to 6ish months time if the Club is to move forward as he represents considerable risk and that is not something which an investor would want.

It is nothing personal RK, it is business.

 

[alex]

I love RK and what he has done.

 

[MHS]

I love RK and what he has done.

Certainly not. He'll never move from his cosy South coast home.

100% agree. I can't see MM handing that amount of money to a manager who has shit players just getting by on sheer determination and passion that cost feck all. Lets be honest, we're playing crap football. Peter Taylor proved how good a manager he is without money, give it to him and he turns into a fecking idiot.

I say keep whoever is motivating the players on the training ground with them, and employ a manger with experience in the high end spending market

Welcome Swede Fox, is your Father English?, I'm curious as to why he would support Leicester City if he doesn't need to

Top idea Jeff

No, my father is Swedish, and it was more just an accident that he started to support City. He watched a match at TV, and liked the shirts, so he decided to support them. And here I am, walking in his fotsteps.

Thanks everyone!
