For Stoke the season start was anything but pleasant, because after three games they occupy the bottom of the table with just one point. After the 1: 1 draw on the opening day at promoted FC Middlesbrough, followed by two defeats against Manchester City (1: 4) and Everton (0: 1). These two defeats are certainly not pleasant – but manageable because currently these teams are much stronger estimate. On the transfer market, the Potters remained largely quiet and intensified only with Joe Allan (Liverpool), Ramadan Sobhi (El Ahly Cairo) and Wilfried Bony (Manchester City). Moreover Burno Martins Indi (Porto) and Lee Grant were (Derby County) on loan. The Dutchman Indi will probably be on Saturday right in the starting line and back for Geoff Cameron in central defense. Probably the most important transfer was borrowing from Wilfried Bony. The 27-year-old came as Indi shortly before the transfer deadline and to close the gap in the storm. Both Mame Biram Diouf, and Peter Crouch could not use their chances namely. will fail due to injury Glen Johnson, Stephen Ireland, Ibrahim Afellay and Jack Butland.

The Spurs are also in this season without a doubt the top teams that will surely have the quality to win the championship. My season start was however comparatively little slow, because after a 1: 1 draw at Everton, was followed by a tight 1: 0 win over Crystal Palace, as well as a 1: 1 draw against Liverpool. On the transfer market, the London around € 83 million spent and reinforced with Georges-Kévin N’Koudou (Marseill), Victor Wanyama (Southampton), Vincent Janssen (AZ Alkmaar) and Moussa Sissoko (Newcastle). The French international Sissoko has been committed at the last moment and is intended to replace the loaned to FC Schalke Bentaleb. At Euro the 27 year old showed a good performace, but its capabilities are limited because its construction game is upgradable, just like its accuracy in some situations. Nevertheless, he goes for the Spurs as king Transfer and intended to cause the next thrust.
