also as far as spectacles go, that was ****ing tosh. when stoke play i think the officials have got to be less picky. it plays right into their hands and encourages their style of play to prosper. Think we should have stayed on our feet a bit more with some of the fouls. they were just niggly fouls and not enough to make a player go down but we were happy to accept the foul and lump the ball in the box - a tactic that didn't even come close to working.

Moyes should have seen after 20 mins that lumping it to felli was not working and should have swapped him with osman. loads of lids on here predicted it would happen, so surely a manager can spot that but he kept it going and we barely threatened.
barkley looked good and gave us something new when he came on so hope he gets his starting place when felli's suspended
 
yes he made a balls of that header but was good on crosses and dealin wit punts into his box in general........and i dont recall pienaar havin a sitter

problem with him is that he has cocked up atleast once in most of our games that have cost us a goal and maybe the 3 points, 1 or 2 games every now and again is acceptable but not at the rate he is goin not a clean sheet since swansea

for me pienaar's chance was a simple strike into the bottom corner he done the hard work getting free of the defense and just did a piss role shot instead of just hitting it sweet
 
Howard has to take the blame for the result.

We were poor, but they were worse and that was such a soft goal.

Sorry mate it I think that's ridiculous. Did no one see us give it away under no pressure and him saving a one on one!! That should of been 2-1 to stoke.
 
Barkley looked soooo comfortable on the ball. Just had that cushion of space every time he got on the ball.

That kid has the best touch of all our m/f.

It seemed Stoke didn't plan for Ross. Shame we didn't put him on earlier. You're right Dave he had loads of space.
