Going into the final day of the 2014/15 Premier League season, a Stoke City team managed by Mark Hughes needed three points at home against Liverpool to secure their highest Premier League points total.
The visitors, then under head coach Brendan Rodgers, had struggled to match the form of the previous season’s title challenge and were already out of contention for the Champions League places. Instead, the focus on the Reds lay squarely on captain Steven Gerrard, for whom the fixture represented his final game as a player on British shores.
Gerrard eventually managed to score a farewell goal in front of the travelling fans, but Liverpool were otherwise outplayed and outfought in a chastening 6-1 defeat. Here, in an exclusive Masterclass with the Coaches’ Voice, Hughes reveals the key selection and tactical decisions that inspired a victory in which numerous players with a Liverpool connection - including Charlie Adam, Peter Crouch and Jon Walters - made significant contributions.

That‘s one of the most painful results I experienced.. If anyone said that we would be dominating Europe and England now, I would‘ve laughed in their face

[@zach008vs]

And that we (Stoke) would be fighting for survival in the championship 😂

[@SteBrazier2K9]

Most of these masterclass videos seem to be wins vs Liverpool, we are gargantuan

[@advenco344]

SteBrazier2K9 and during one of our worst periods in the 21st century...

[@Lew86]

It's a shame it all went downhill from there. He helped produce some of the best football I've ever seen at Stoke.

[@prodignour318]

these videos are brilliant!! oOne thing I would really love to see is manager talking about a defeat. what they intended, what went wrong, what would they do differently etc.

[@RyanGray616]

Things might have turned sour towards the end but I think people forget the job Hughes did at Stoke. They'd bite your arm off now for 9th place in the PL, 3 seasons in a row playing attacking football.

[@adamhopkins2976]

Recruitment really let him down to be fair

[@garonaaskett6681]

Was and am a very big Hughes supporter. Shame how the players let him down towards the end at Stoke because we were so close to pushing on bar a few things. Doesn't deserve half the crap he gets. Hope he finds another job in the top flight, where he belongs :)

[@yChxrl]

I still remember the limbs in the boothen end😂😍

[@drainforce4439]

mark mark your stoke journey was mind blowing

[@zulhilmimohanap4281]

I remembered this game. I watch full 90 mins. Horrible send off for gerrard.

[@ethan-is7dn]

I would love to see a cv stories trilogy with Mark Hughes I’m a big fan of his

[@TheCoachesVoice]

It’s funny you say that...

[@KlamPakFC]

Oh how times have changed

[@esseffsee]

Marky Marky Hughes gonna keep us up win the FA Cup Marky Marky Hughes 🔴⚪️🔴⚪️🔴⚪️🔴

[@willdentten9873]

Please try and get Pochettino for Spurs 3 - 1 Real Madrid.

Geoff Cameron what a man. I'm an ex pat living in Rhode Island. I was walking my dogs years ago when Geoff had signed for us, I was wearing my Stoke City baseball cap.this guy walking towards me, said "Stoke city", stopped and said he knew Geoff personally very well and that was how he had heard of Stoke City. He tells me what a wonderful family, Goff and his family are. It did not surprise me. Any the guy who who I had the conversation with, lives the street behind me. Whenever he sees me he asks " do I still support Stoke?" I always tell him of course. Why wouldn't I regardless of which division. I never said this to him, but he kind of respected that when we got relegated. He's a Mexican guy who is very happy they've just won the Gold Cup. When I last saw him, I told that thought the US or Canada would win it.

[@juandeag5550]

I maybe too late to comment about this, but I genuinely think that this is a fair reminder for my beloved Liverpool that no one should take any opponents lightly, especially where we are right now. Note: Damn, i remembered this match too well. Not taking the trophy + humiliation was too much for any fans

[@Jimmiiii]

the king

[@Johnny-eg7xm]

Slaven Bilic west ham 3:2 Man Utd in 15/16 season please!

[@nikolanikolic7595]

Beating utd isn't master class

[@haroonnadim4070]

Nikola Nikolić unfortunately i agree😂😂😂

[@bestfullyy]

that was mostly emotional, not tactical - there was no way west ham would let themselves lose that game

[@andreasdarsaklis5495]

That game was the Aston Villa 7 Liverpool 2 of its day

[@sekaiiisan3709]

N'zonzi was my favourite Stoke player, perhaps the best

[@t.d6379]

Unreal he was

[@Beigenotbrown]

Gerrard last game :(

[@smellykid180]

Ah minggolé that brilliant keeper

[@arpitk2470]

2:49 : Sparky... I know all about Jon Walters...I know all abou him!

[@apparentlynobody]

He's so handsome! I love him

[@james1994wood]

Manchester City 0 Arsenal 2 : arsene wenger please

[@0utd0wns0uth]

James Wood this one would be a great watch

[@andrewstuart7542]

This man is so handsome and he’s aging very well. He’s a great role model.

[@MM-il8kc]

Bruh Mark Hughes tell him to come back to stoke we need him

[@haroldherrera2062]

Neil Lennon Celtic v Barca

[@Danny-nc1km]

I thought he was a DJ from the thumbnail

[@myaphextwin807]

I was devastated when Stoke replaced Pulis with Hughes. Not because I didn't want Pulis to leave but I thought Stoke had the opportunity to be bold and brave in dipping in to a pool of young European managers who were doing well in whatever league they were working in. I just saw Hughes has a notch up from Pulis, in that he was better known in the World of football and had links to other areas of the game. However, there was a period where Stoke were playing decent football, signing much better players than Pulis could and they were beating the best. Had Stoke shown the same ambition as Hughes then Stoke might still be in the Premier League. Their relegation was sealed when they failed the second time they tried to convince Marko Arnautović to stay at the club.

[@mantis2179]

Hughes is good but I just don't understand why he decided to abandon the trio of Bojan Shaqiri Arnautovic, when this front three almost bring us to Europa League

[@manchesterunitedclips162]

The players wanted to leave stoke I think

[@jamessharrock278]

Bojan did double ACL, arnautovic wanted to leave. He should have replaced them properly in the market though

[@Beyondultragaming]

Hearing charlie adams and glen whelan on the same team omg

[@shivankbatra5643]
