Officially official Stoke Match Thread!

This new match ball doesn't look round.

I know that sounds mental, but the geometric pattern makes it appear to be made up of flat sides at times.

I keep thinking it looks like spiderman merchandise

Didn't I just PM you just now not to take LSD on match days?

 

[Rosco]

Its hardly fair that everytime I point out what a whopping bellend he is, that Hansern is allowed abuse me.

 

[FoxForceFive]

It does. I don't like it. Not that it bothers me particularly like, but it's trying too hard. Just look like a fucking footy, not something used as a prop in a Sci Fi film.

Welcome to my world.

 

[Markeh]

No excuses for Rodgers anymore, I always thought it might have been easier for him if he hadn't inherited Gerrard because he wasn't a strong enough character to do anything other than play Gerrard. Now he's gone it's Brendans team and there's no massive undroppable presence in the squad to accommodate in the XI

You did, but all the words started spinning then tried to eat my fingers through the tablet screen. I think it was too late.

Sakho celebrated the birth of his second child - Sienna, this week and while he's not in the squad, he has travelled with the team #LFC

Sakho selfie before match apparently:

Not even on the bench?

 

[Fabio]

We're gonna lose aren't we

 

[Mystic]

Congratulations Sakho, I really hope that's the only reason Lovren is starting.

 

[Mystic]

I fancy a Benteke or Lovren red card.

 

[peterhague]

We're gonna lose aren't we

I still think we'll win.

 

[Hansern]

Its hardly fair that everytime I point out what a whopping bellend he is, that Hansern is allowed abuse me.

Its because you are bellend. Its not abuse, its a fact.

 

[Fabio]

I still think we'll win.

I admire the positivity

 

[Hansern]

I request Hansern gets a ban for calling me a bellend.

If the mods don't act I'm throwing a hiss fit

Do it then. Or If you stop acting like this then everything will be fine.
But you never learn

 

[FoxForceFive]

Benteke adds to Liverpools aerial power?

Do these fuckers not watch us, we have no aerial power without him FFS.

 

[Holle]

Benteke's ears have the same form as Suarez'.

That's promising!

 

[FoxForceFive]

Hansern, Ross, give it a rest FFS.

Hissy.

Afellay learning the Stoke ways

 

[FoxForceFive]

Like the fact Clyne didn't go ott & roll round too much there.

 

[Holle]

Shaqiri in the stands?

 

[Holle]

Afellay learning the Stoke ways

N'Zonzi is gone - someone has to step in obviously.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Clyne is getting forward & staying there even more than glenjo did.

I hope it doesn't leave us too exposed too often.

 

[Mystic]

God, Walters looks like Gomez's grandad.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Good defending decision making from Lovren twice this game already.

 

[cloggypop]

Good stuff from Lovren there.

 

[Fabio]

Lovren steamrollered that away then

 

[Red Mullet]

The defence is still a shambles
