Team for Stoke

[Blue Since 76]

Think mario will be very important, not just for goals, but he has real pace. None of the rest of the team are properly quick, in that they'd worry a defence. Mario's pace will stop stoke's backline pushing up, creating more space for the likes of silva. Without him, you can end up with a kicking contest in the centre circle, which we can do, but it stops us being threatening

Stoke will be half a yard quicker into the tackle than Fulham. It will be interesting to see if our passing game still works as well. If it does, we'll know for sure that we're pretty good & should fear nobody this season.

Whatever game,if Nigel is fit he plays.
