“That’s one of the most miserable pessimistic views I’ve ever heard!” Alex Neil’s Stoke City Press Conference takes a turn

Stoke City’s manager Alex Neil appeared non-plussed with the questioning at today’s Stoke City press conference in preparation for his side’s vital relegation-6-pointer with Huddersfield Town.

Under-pressure Neil is attempting to steer The Potters away from the relegation zone, a similar position to that which he inherited nearly 6 months ago.

Firstly, he objected to a question about the consistency of his Stoke side, stating: “You take what I say then you sort of turn that into what you want it to look like!”.

Then he himself turned a question to him into a completely different question: “You’re basically saying that the soul was sucked out of Ryan Woods whilst he was here?”

Whatever the question though, he is keen for Stoke to do well, and take all 3 points, helped by his 5 enthusiastic new loan signings.

Stoke City face Huddersfield on Wednesday night at 7.45pm, and the game can be watched live at the bet365 stadium or via the Stoke City website using a streaming subscription (£10 in the UK), and via the Sky Sports red button facility (with the Sports subscription).
