Experience of what? How many times have Stoke played Port Vale in the last decade?

Based on the Fulham game I'd play Whelan with Onomah and Hourihane further in front. It's not Whelan's fault previously Bruce played him out of position and he was knackered by half time. He has an eye for a pass and moved the ball quickly against Fulham - it was his first time ball that set free Onomah for the Adomah goal.

He did very well against Wales in that crucial game however this one is really no contest other than a psychological issue that may effect players.

I think it worked on Saturday as Fulham, being the away side, were happy to allow us possession. When we are away from home playing one up front just sees us become too negative. Get two up front and get at the bastards.Davis, if fit, deserves to play, while not playing Kodjia would give them a boost.Fulham had 68% possessionFulham's goal keeper and left side of the defence has 60% possession, the rest of their team had the 8%.
