To be fair most Stoke fans are a mixture of the following- Too slow for the top flight to be fully effective now but fantastic work rate, positioning, decent on the ball, brilliant professional and a battler. I can see Bruce playing him in a 2 with Jedinak Johnstone Terry Samba Chester Elmohamady Taylor Jedinak Whelan Hourihane Lansbury Hogan Kodjia
I'll leave it to someone else to point out what's wrong with that line-up.

I can't really remember him being a holding midfielder, more a player who would play in a two. It will be interesting to see what Bruce does with the midfield this season. Will he go with a flat two, one holding with two more advanced or two holding with one in front of them?
My biggest concern (other than Bruce being inept) is that if we fill our team with aging players to get us out the changes needed if we ever get back to the Premiership will be huge
