DISQUS

The questiong is: Is Johnathan Starling totally deluded? He has obviously got an axe to grind because how he read this game is so one-sided - and incorrect - that it is almost untrue. I'm actually a Yeovil fan who was visiting a friend, so I have no real passion either way in this tie, so would like to think I am slightly more objective than the writer here. Stoke played very well on the whole and deserve to be congratulated as such. Villa were beaten by the better team on the day. Some of the critisism I'd heard about Stoke's style of play also seem rather harsh too. Sure, some of their play is direct but no more than I tend to see from other teams on Sky or MOTD. They also played some rather neat one-touch passing in this game. I hope they do well and start to get the credit they deserve if they keep getting good results as this one definitely was against a team with top-five finish aspirations. So come on, Starling, start saying it like it is and not making up crap like you've dredged up in this review. Surely you must be better than that...?!?
