Horton's halftime iceberg
Blooming Marvellous
Brought back some Oakcakes and local red cheese on Saturday. We had cheese oatcakes with brown Sauce for breakfast yesterday. Nice.
He is not good enough to get into either Spurs or Arsenal as they both have better already and IMHO the height of his ability is a mid-table Premier side so possibly Everton but I doubt Big Sam would want him. I would possibly pick him above Knockaert but not Stephens Propper or Gross. When they get relegated he and the rest of the Stoke team may have a reduction clause in their wage deal. The one they will lose is Butland and possibly Shawcross.
I'm sorry but he would easily slip into Spurs or Arsenal's squads. He's far better than Lamela, probably as good as Lucas Moura and has already won 13 major trophies and he's only 26. He's already played for arguably the best Bayern side ever (winning the Bundesliga, Champions League and DFB-Pokal in a season), had a tough time at Inter, who are a real mess since being taken over by a Chinese investment group, and is now rebuilding his career. If you were at Arsenal you would swap him for Iwobi every day of the week.
Sorry to go all Klopp on you but that you think he's worse than any of our current squad astounds me. He's scored a hat-trick at a World Cup and every time I've seen him in the flesh (admittedly twice) he's oozed class.

Shaqiri is decent, but he's no J-Lloyd Samuel.
People will not let that rest will they as I have pointed out many many times the suggestion of JLS was to serve a means to an end at that particular time when we desperately needed a left back..

It is all about opinions and I believe that he is a luxury player that neither Arsenal or Spurs would want. He looks good on the ball but for me he doest do enough to make him a top player that they would be looking for.as I say just my opinion.
Shaqiri so closely resembles Harry Enfield that I’m not surprised he would be on loadsamoney. (One for the older NSC reader there.)
Not pleased that this categorises me as an older reader...
IMHO he stands out in a very poor side but would look ordinary for Spurs or Arsenal or any other top 6 team.
100% disagree.
Better players around a good player, creating more space for him to play in, creating more chances for him to score, making better runs for him to pass to - all add up to a MORE successful player. Do you think he was a big fish in a small pool at Bayern?
He only played 52 games for BAYERN over a period of 3 seasons so not exactly first choice for them so probably more a small fish in a big pool
