NP: 'It hurts, but we have to find our way back' | Reaction from Kenilworth Road

[@Sophie-Sojo]

Give the guy a chance, we have lost the last 3 matches granted however 2 of them teams are top of the table. You can't possibly expect a team that is mid to low in the table consistently, over multiple seasons, to do as well as stoke have been doing since Narcis has come into being head coach. You're all delusional if you think Stoke are going to improve to the top of the table in a matter of months. These things take time and if you don't give anyone that what more are you expecting? The team is so young and that surely can't be easy to work with when expectations are extremely high from fans when clearly now, experienced players are needed to be at the top level of football to guide the young. They aren't there in the correct capacity yet but you can't change everything over night. I'm sorry if you feel I'm wrong but thats my opinion.

awful manager, whats that 3 wins in 16 now. he tries to overcomplicate his tactics, not realising he don’t have the players to gel in his system. I can’t stand his talk on “defending” all the time. why can’t he just use a simple formation, & play the players we got to their strengths. as come next pre- season, he uses his “press high from the back offensively” & “zonal defending” tactic implementation. whilst bringing in his own players for that. we going backwards with this appointment, Narcís & Walters need to go…

[@alanclewes9798]

He aint got it, he's taking us down.

[@atakodaz]

Been going backwards just feels sad how every season is like this since relegation

[@DaveWalker-j6p]

We're going backwards!?...

[@KevinJackso]

Wake up and understand were we at and give him a chance

[@Stenz94]

Narcis, it hurts to watch us ‘defend’

[@paulshallcross2675]

He asks the team to be brave ! Yet Saturday at 1-1 he replaces Junho with Wilmot. Then this game replaces Koumas with Gooch at 1-1. Very brave himself. Clown

[@TimComley]

For it’s been a frustrating few years 😢

[@malcolmburgess1498]

I think he is trying to compensate for our defensive frailties by packing the box with bodies. Problem is that it is not organised and creates confusion. Opposition players outside of the box are not being closed down quick enough, if at all.

[@johnbeggs9669]

Look at the luton equaliser. Not ONE stoke city defender leaves the ground to try to get a head on the ball.....go on, look at it....pathetic!! Bullied out of this game!!

[@vincelicata5880]

Same drivel every match

[@kiangoodwin731]

NP my goat. Ten Hag In

[@Baggo72]

You ain’t got a clue what your doing pal

[@mattjones8800]

Narcis pillock. I could pick a better team 😂 boring to watch. Predicatble. Most shots at our goal in the league. If all teams win games in hand we are in relegation spot and relegation fight before Christmas 🤦‍♂️ no fight no determination and no muscle. Pathetic to wear the shirt

[@CarlAnderson-y9f]

Absolute sh ite. Same old stoke. An embarassment
