Stoke don't need to sign Maja at the end of the season.

I fear you'll soon be saying that about the Season.

I've had my fill of Tony Mowbray now. His dealings in January were amateurish at best, and as a result him scrabbling round spinning his tombola to try and make things happen are equally that of a man completely out of his depth.` We're getting beat by poor teams because he had a bonkers idea that we could play without goalscorers.

He could have got him for 0 had he waited till Summer, but was that desperate to bolster his attacking options he parted with £200,000. Then doesn't play him.

The lad from Spurs isn't a striker at all, he's a winger from their youth team. I'd be interested to know how much Stoke are paying Maja if money was such an issue.

Well said. And in the second half he had the opportunity to play in a more conventional strikers role. The guy is a poor mans Ashley Ward (😳).

There's not many.

On here they thought someone was going to step up. Khadra, Dolan, Rothwell were all names mentioned, all midfielders who don't score much (I got particular stick for saying that). It was a glimpse into the mindset of some fans. I thought it was just Mowbray that was bonkers.

Venkys have been shit, but absolutely. He could have signed a striker. He didn't sign one player in January that has made an impact. If he'd not signed any of them and spent it on a striker we'd be better off.

I saw him coming out of the tunnel but thought for some reason he didn't make the bench as he wasn't listed on the BBC's app. Not that I could care less.

All the ones who thought the decision not to sign a striker was the right one.

Hedges wasn't on the bench.

Someone needs to grow some bollocks and ask why the useless prick didn't sign one useful player in January when we were already showing signs of struggling.

Fuck it guys, it's over. Mowbray gave it away in January.

Amazing how that's a foul yet Gallagher got taken down off the ball in the box and nothing, Khadra brought down in the box twice, nothing.

Someone should tell Khadra to pass the ball.

Another set of cheating c*nts.

Dack. 2 minutes 2 misses.

I give up.

How many touches does any of our players need before shooting? May as well just tell the defender to stick a leg out.

No changes, what a surprise.

Because part of TM's gameplan was to hit long balls to a big ox of a striker so he could cross to two blokes who aren't strikers.

Or a decent side that's now left with no decent strikers thanks to the manager.

This is as frustrating as last seasons drivel. Rovers getting forward more but at the same time very poor. Too many passengers, too many players being asked to do things alien to them, not enough managerial nouse to change things. Absolutely dreadful going forward. As dreadful as anyone sane would imagine having two midfielders and Sam Gallagher upfront would be.

I should scroll slower, at first glance I thought that was a jibe at the manager.
