  1. Any decent manager would protect his prize asset and just say no.he has enough players for a game at Stoke,providing Cole doesn’t pansy about.SA should be more confident in his players,problem is even now he doesn’t know them.however I did say a decent manager so we will find out at 3pm tomorrow.
