Maybe it’s because I support a club that not only values the FA Cup but has won it more than anyone else. Or maybe it’s because it was the first trophy said club won after I started supporting them. Or maybe it’s because in the last 10 years, not only have Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal, […]

After five games, Stoke sit in last place. They have been unfathomably bad in their matches thus far and have a goal differential of -11. Worst of all, some of the opponents they have gone up against are ones they should have beaten. The points dropped against the likes of Middlesbrough, Crystal Palace, and Hull […]

I am just as shocked as you are, Stoke City scored two quick goals via Xherdan Shaqiri to Marko Arnautovic and Stoke is up on Manchester City at halftime. The result of actual beautiful play not seen in these parts of England by the home team in a long time. Goal number one was the […]

This year has flown by. It’s hard to believe that we’re at the quarters already for the Capitol One Cup. Time flies when you’ve got good soccer to watch. We’ve got some great matchups at this stage of the Capitol One Cup. Plenty of opportunities for potential upsets, chances to regain form, and maybe even […]

Late in Chelsea’s 1-0 loss against Stoke, Stoke goalkeeper Jack Butland tried to keep Loic Remy from scoring. Butland took to the ground to attempt to grab the ball and while he didn’t make contact with Remy, he impeding Remy’s chance at goal while in the box as the ball was clearly away from the […]

We didn’t think it was going to get worse for Chelsea, it’s getting worse. Marko Arnautovic put down a vicious volley to give Stoke the 1-0 win and deepen the hole for Chelsea on their top four expectations. REPLAY: Marko Arnautovic's scissor-kick puts

Over the years, Stoke City had a reputation for being a team who was considered boring and consistently “parked the bus” to play counterattacking soccer. This style of play was introduced by Tony Pulis, who used that to get Stoke from the Championship to the Premier League in 2008 and make them into a Premier […]

Oh how disheartening for Manchester City fans. Right before halftime, Sergio Aguero is all alone at the goal, Man City had an opportunity to take the 2-1 lead at the Brittania Stadium to give them a better chance to be the first time in the EPL era and it all went away because of a […]

I’m not going to lie, seeing Burnley vs. West Brom and Newcastle vs. Stoke on the schedule at 7 AM and 9 AM respectively, it was a tough ask to get me out of bed early on a Sunday morning to see these games. If you got up at 7 AM or 4 AM on […]

So this happened a bit after I wrote the Oh You Beauty article yesterday. In case you missed it, Stoke was playing their FA Cup tie against Rochdale when Bojan popped up with this little beauty of a volley. There was a time when he was considered the next Leo Messi at Barcelona. It’s a […]

This wasn’t how Stoke wanted things to go down. If anything, this is how Stoke would likely have taken the lead. Alas, John Terry got back on the scoring groove and put Chelsea up 1-0 and back into the EPL lead with a header off of a corner kick after two minutes. Terry got leverage […]
