for those too lazy to click links - Stoke have signed defender Marc Muniesa on a free transfer from Barcelona.
The 21-year-old, who was a member of the Spain squad that recently won the European Under-21 Championship, has signed a four-year contract with the Potters.
i say he'll last 6 weeks |  |

Agreed, Hughes looks to be getting it right at Stoke so far which is f@cking infuriating, but I guess time will tell |  |

This.
His two signings so far at Stoke have been exactly the sort of player he should have been buying for us last summer when he was busy slinging one up Ji Sung Park. |  | | |

maybe he wasn't the one that bought Park. |  |

Yeh perhaps that's a fair point. Carries the can for most if not all of the others though. Bosingwa etc. | | | |

Perhaps, and I certainly don't mean to defend the worst QPR manager since Alan Mullery, but the strategy of acquiring overpriced flops started before his tenure. | |

Also can't stand him as a manager, but most clubs fans would have creamed their pants at some of the signings made, just a shame it didn't work out for us | | | |

I think northern sums it up perfectly in his graveyard article in where we brought players because of who they are and what success they have had achieved with previous club without looking out how they would fit into the team and whether they are suited too our style of play or formation and if they are committed to the cause . They obviously thought buy first and then work them in to fit in but this stratergy simply does not work . [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Hmmm, my fear is that he'll be an absolutely blinding signing. Sod's law; Stoke finish 7th, Sparky manager of the year  |  | | |

Just recovered from a ruptured cruciate . Bit of a gamble IMO throwing him into the Prem .
Without wishing bad luck on this player I really hope Hughes bombs at Stoke . |  | | |

Agree both signings very good as were Granero, Hoilett and M'bia at the the time but we have far more troubles than Stoke and he has a far better base to build on so you would expect any signing he makes will fit in. You build a team from the defence and Stoke have a solid keeper and 2 decent centre halves which we lacked.
Anyway, not our problem what Stoke are doing and he'll probably benefit from the time with us in knowing what not to do! |  | | |

Nedum Onouha and M'Bia looked every bit as good a signing as these two but you can't predict anything in football.
I think Stoke will struggle. Hughes is a poor manager and they are trying to adopt a new playing style that he isn't known for. | | | |

Fantastic prospect but the worlds unluckiest footballer. Sent off on his Barca debut for an incredible challenge, promoted to the first team this year and did his knee in pre-season wherein Bartra overtook him.
Fancy he'll be a great long term signing for them. | | | |

His signings for us looked even more promising. Don't see why everyone's so impressed.
For what it's worth a PSV fan I know is absolutely delighted to have got shot of Pieters. And Muniesa in the Premiership could easily be another Granero. |  | | |

Heard a Spanish journalist on the radio saying Barca let him go as be missed last season with cruciate ligaments damage.
He lacks pace to be a full back and the height or strength to be a centre back. Lets see. |  |
