The Potters have had a good time last season with the likes of Xherdan Shaqiri, Marko Arnautovic and Bojan coming into the mix with their blazing runs and dazzling dribbles to score against the likes of Chelsea and both halves of the Manchester. With a solid 8th position finish last season, Mark Hughes men will look to set their sights over Europe this time around.

Some good signings in the summer transfer window in the form of Joe Allen and Wilfried Bony would certainly add to the quality of the players. Ryan Shawcross would be looking forward to link up with the likes of Bruno Martins Indi at the Centre Back position.

With some solidarity at the back and a threatening attack, Stoke should be looking to finally make the cut for the European spots this time around.
