Stoke City

The Potters enter their third season in the Premier League having firmly silenced the doubters who had expected their stay in the top flight to be brief. Winger Matthew Etherington is the class act in Tony Pulis’ ranks and he will be hoping the creativity of the former West Ham will provide plenty of scoring chances. Notoriously head to beat at home, the Potters will be aiming for a top-half finish now that they are firmly established among England’s elite.
