No team news yet, but Cuco set for a match against us. https://www.stokecityfc.com/news/martina-poised-for-u23-run-out

With Vardy out, who do they play up top? Iheanacho? Slimani / Miss / Ulloa have all left haven't they?

Crikey, Charlie. Hughes Pre-match comments thread next?

We've got a touch of gastroenteritis as a team -- Problems at both ends. Hughes needs to sort out both problems.

I just shivered as I thought about last seasons match at St Mary's.

Armstrong & Moi hopefully back to 100% too & they were among our better players last week.

Our tactic of not turning up until the 2nd half needs looking at.

5 at the back vs Burnley at home. 4 vs Everton away. Mind boggling.

If Tosun is playing he's going to love playing against Stephens & Hoedt.

Post #827?! Something's going to have to give as we have 5 strikers!

Where would Telstar be expected to finish?

I think everyone is guessing.

Yup!

Adam Blackmore missed a trick by not asking Hughes for his opinion on Carrillo after Les had finished saying how good Carrillo is.

Martina rumoured to be close to Stoke loan move.

Forest Green Rovers at St Mary's, please. The return of Lloyd James to his spiritual home.

Cheers for doing your recaps.

Moi a doubt for the game.

Henri Camara has confirmed his retirement from football at the age of 41.

ITK?

Never know if deals like this ever happen. All went quiet on the 'Real Madrid' wonder-kid we were set to sign. (Although, in fairness I'm sure the report said it would happen in September).

Lovely. Didn't he do something similar (but more centrally) to assist Pelle once in a pre-season match?
