I'm sure you're right but wasn't it Stoke fans who basically got rid of Pulis for his old fashioned, strong,aggressive, defensively organised style. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd be surprised if he would leave Sunderland for Stoke,Sunderland is a huge club,great loyal fans, fantastic potential and close to Scotland, seems perfect for him, but I guess it's a great opportunity for him to 'encourage' Sunderland to offer him a new improved contract which us how alot of these approaches end up 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A shame they've lost him due to a slow start. Stoke would be more appealing than Sunderland in my book. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,882 Posted August 26, 2022 I'm a bit surprised Sunderland gave him permission to talk to them tbh. Doesn't sound as though they are fighting hard to keep him, otherthan making sure they get some compo from Stoke. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
