Stokes goal difference is really going to take a hammering if this keeps up.

First halfs like this tend to come before a disappointing second half.

Probably end up 4-1 at full time.

just thinking about that comment on SKY about this being stoke's first game for 15 days

kinda makes a mockery of all the moans about fixture congestion, spurs have been playing twice a week, stoke have had 2 weeks off, and spurs running all over them

15 days is to long a break though in a season. Almost the 2 extreme cases playing each other.

Spurs always batter Stoke, for whatever reason.

Not sure who has put in the more disgraceful performance tonight, Leicester or Liverpool!

Well that was woeful defending from Liverpool, playing too high a defensive line and a chronic lack of man marking letting Leicester players having freedom to attack in the 18 yard box.

Bit annoying that Leicester win straight after Ranieri is sacked.

Makes it look like he was the problem.

One positive to take from that. Big Sam is back in the bottom three.

But it means we're one point closer to the relegation zone, with Man U away on Saturday.

Who wants mid table obscurity anyway!

A nice cup run would have done wonders for confidence!

Possibly, or it could have crocked a few more players. What's the point of going on a cup run when you're a premier league team especially when you aren't going to win it. Looks at the teams that are likely to contest the semi finals!

I'm all prepared for relegation anyway. Don't get me wrong it will come as a disappointment, but on the up side they'll be 8 more games next season and I'll get to go again.

I don't think you'll go down tbh. I'm not sure who will, mind.
