If you've not already seen Guy Melton's offering on Stoke's prospects this year it's well worth a look.
As a taster, to quote him directly..."Amazingly Stoke had the worst shot differential in the Championship, allowing 143 more efforts on goal than they attempted. The team with the worst shot differential in the Premiership (Derby) was relegated by April but somehow Stoke won promotion. How did they do it?"
His analysis of The Potters heroic promotion effort last season is quite revealing,and he links it through to our likely fortunes this season in the Premiership.

Many thanks for the link and positive comments. I think Stoke are one of the most interesting teams in the top flight this season and I admire Tony Pulis's somewhat unconventional approach.
Even though I'm a Leicester fan and should probably wish eternal damnation on Stoke for breaking my heart at the end of last season, I'm sort of hoping you can stay up.
