Though Im sure through your meticulous planning of each of our opponents , this is covered.
Stoke have these players called, Huth, Shawcross, Walters and Crouch.
Stoke continue to pump long and high ball after long and high ball into the oppostions 18 yard box.
We cannot defend a ball into the box (see WHU, Reading x2, Everton etc)
We can also not handle a target man roughing our week defence up (See Grant Holt, Kevin Nolan)
Hows about statring today, finding the biggest oaf in our personel at the club, going out on that training field and lumping 100 balls a hour up to him , have him being followed by Anton Ferdinand and Ryan Nelsen and challenging him.
Keep doing these 100 balls an hour till they understand how to defend a cross or high ball.
This may help with Saturday, because Stoke like this and must be rubbing their hands with glee looking at our defence.
Im sure you have already realised this though. |  | | |  |

Christ if we go there with the game plan of containment we're get hammered.
Would put my house on Hughes setting his team out to be defensive with the idea of somehow nicking a goal, only to see it fall apart after 3 minutes.
Lump on Stoke early goal it's a sure bet. |  | | |

the way to beat Stoke is simple, don't give away free kicks, keep the ball and exploit the wide areas. |  | | |

I fancy us to win at Stoke, no idea why as all logic suggests that they'll win easily on set pieces but i think we'll nick it | | | |

My first away game of the season.
I've not seen us win away, or score an away goal for that matter, since Watford.
We'll lose |  |

It wouldn't be the first time. From memory I think we've won 4 of our last 6 visits. (Wait for Clive's preview to confirm). |  |

only reason I think we'll win is that I'm not going and law of averages says we have to win eventually | | | |
