I know a lot of fantasy managers were looking to Andy Wilkinson this season. Cheap, and with some good returns last year. But this must at least give one pause. I wouldn't expect Wilko to be displaced just yet, but he was the first man off the pitch a lot and even if Stoke can hold a clean sheet, will he make the required 75 minutes?Stoke City manager Tony Pulis has confirmed young defender Ryan Shotton is in contention to start their opening Premier League fixture against Burnley.
Andy Wilkinson and Andy Griffin were widely expected to command the Potters' full-back positions this season, although Pulis believes the 20-year-old is a genuine contender...
"Wilko has been unfortunate with a shoulder injury of late, but he's now back, while Griff is now as fit as he's ever been, so we will see what happens."
First to ask the stupid question of the year: Rate my team please: Jussi, Vermaelen, Hraiderson, Sonko, Gerard, Lampard, Wilshere, Moke, Drogba, Eubanks-Blake, Robinho

Hi Jeremy, mind rating mine?
ReplyDeleteReina, G.Johnson, Insua, Bosingwa, Valencia, Milijas, Zhirkov, Malouda, Riera, Owen and the last striking spot is a toss between King and Nugent.
I like this team, eric10234. I'm not sure about Zhirkov AND Malouda... I think you need to pick whichever one you think will get the bulk of the playing time. Then spend some money on a real third forward.
