Fee Agreed For Matt Phillips. Deal Done.

“He’s a great acquisition because he adds to the versatility within the group. He gives us both wide positions and is also able to play as a central striker. We’re absolutely delighted to welcome Matt to the club.”

Indeed he is able to... but he certainly won't play well as a central striker.

I think Central Striker is sometjing Phillips wrote on his CV once and the employer just assumed he wouldnt lie.

Good business for the club. Now lets invest in some proper young and hungry up and coming players who will bust a gut to get in the side week in week out.

Out of interest, what attacking wide player in their right mind would want to go to West Brom.... the worst most direct style (or lack of) of football known on earth constantly lumping it up to the target man. Pulis is like a poison to the beautiful game.

And to think there was quite loud noises on here for the board to appoint him as Rangers manager a very short time ago

Stoke’s technical director Nicky Hammond added: “He’s a great acquisition because he adds to the versatility within the group. He gives us both wide positions and is also able to play as a central striker. We’re absolutely delighted to welcome Matt to the club.”.

What has Stoke's technical director got to do with West Brom?

Shudder. The quality of football would've been worse than what we were served under Redknapp for sure. Overrated manager, Pulis.

[FACTS]

Pulis' teams are shite to watch but if he was here we'd still be in the PL...

We got a decent deal out of this imo, Philips isn't special.
