Game settled a bit after pretty open first few minutes, Stoke sitting in with their 5 at the back, familiar game plan for teams coming to ER.

Is it just me or does Vokes looks a bit winded already?

Roberts our best player so far ..a shot on goal, some lovely control and passing and a header won

Stoke sticking to their plan well, we look clueless.

Bamford has a dig, high wide and ugly

So decent interplay from Costa and Bamford but Paddy’s shot is rising and it’s over the bar.

That's another nice trap and touch from Roberts to find Bamford in the box

Stoke continue to probe our left hand side.

This is just so tough.
Stoke three CB, a LB, RB, and two DMF.

Kilch almost unlocks it but it gets blocked and we have a corner.

Roberts finds Klich in the box, cuts back inside but defender throws himself in the way and blocks.....best move so far.

Wonderful football, Bamford effort cleared off the line and Roberts follow up blocked on the line....Roberts maybe should have done better but great defending.

Much better play from us. Roberts should have scored but whatever, very positive.
