ONES TO WATCH
Jacob Brown
Brown joined Stoke City from Barnsley in September 2020. He scored his first goal for the Club just eight days later, in a 1-0 Carabao Cup win over Wolverhampton Wanderers. The 23-year-old’s first season with the Potters saw him make 41 league appearances, scoring five goals in the process. So far this season, the forward has netted six goals and bagged four assists in 26 appearances.
Joe Allen
The midfielder signed for the Potters from Liverpool ahead of the 2016/17 season. Putting pen-to-paper on a five-year contract, he made his Premier League debut for Stoke in a 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough in August 2016. Last season saw Allen plagued with injuries, only allowing him to make 18 appearances. Since his return, the current campaign has seen the 31-year-old make 22 appearances so far.
Josh Tymon
The 22-year-old joined the Club from Hull City ahead of the 2017/18 season. Following several loan spells, the defender became a regular member of O’Neill’s squad last season, making 26 appearances in a number of different positions. The 2021/22 season has seen Tymoon make 26 starts, bagging one goal and three assists in the process, including two both assists in Stoke’s 2-3 loss to Fulham on Saturday 22 January 2022.
