Stoke City ... season comparison to ours 07:43 - May 21 with 6466 views | Starsky | Stoke beat us to the signing of Joe Allen, signed Berahino, Ramadan Sobhi and had the luxury of having Bony on a season loan. The total outlay for this seasons signings is in excess of £34million. Bony's only goals were against us. Berahino has even got a league goal yet. If we win and Stoke lose today, we finish level on 41 points. Stoke haven't really been relegation candidates whilst we've just performed another great escape this season. The Swans are only the second club to escape relegation whilst being bottom at Christmas in a Premier league history. So despite Stoke having Allen & Bony (2 players a lot on here would love to see back at the Liberty) They've had a dissapointing season. I guess Stoke are pissed off with Mark Hughes, whilst Paul Clement is a hero. Massive contrasts in the feelgood factor of both clubs' set of fans. So my questions to this forum are: 1: which club has most underperformed/underachieved this season? stoke or Swansea? 2: which club is more likely best equipped to avoid the drop next season? 3: who is the best Manager to achieve this for their clubs? Hughes or Clement? 4: which of these 2 clubs wasted the most money on the transfer market? Discuss? [Post edited 21 May 2017 7:45]

"And we beat Liverpool away" How does that help your debate? They hadn't lost at home for 12 months until we beat them | |

Probably true. But Stoke missing a second half penalty to equalise in a 'must win' game is pretty relevant when you're assessing how our season panned out compared to theirs | | | |
