Few teams in club football have caused more annoyance from opposing teams and managers than Tony Pulis’s Stoke City.
Recalling his time with the Potters, former Liverpool star Peter Crouch joked that the former English top-flight team could have beaten a top-flight Barcelona that included both Leo Messi and Andres Iniesta at the Brittania Stadium. .
Given that the Reds themselves have dropped plenty of points against the Staffordshire-based club, it’s not a team that many supporters have been too disappointed to see go down.
Although obviously ironic, we’d be fascinated to see how the Blaugrana fared on a cold and rainy night in Stoke.

“If Messi and Iniesta had come to Brittania at that time, I think we could have turned them around.”
“We trained in the middle of the pitch before we played Arsenal just to cut everything off.” @Petercrouch looking back on his time at Stoke is absolutely amazing! ???????????? pic.twitter.com/rSTnwbNbXa
