“?There’s something in the water in Stoke-on-Trent if the club’s mascots are anything to go by. The Potters’ youngsters were in full force as the players arrived for their Premier League fixture against Manchester United and they were grilled by the pre-teens.
As “?Sky Sports reported, the likes of Mark Hughes, Peter Crouch and Marko Arnautovic were surprised by the audacity of some of the young Stoke City fans, with two in particular having some very choice words.
“You’re so cool Sparky, I’m glad we didn’t sack you…” Watch this hilarious Stoke mascot before Man Utd game… https://t.co/5GS1dOhtP2 pic.twitter.com/4dpRAsgcx6
Here are the best quips that came out of the autograph and selfie session:
To Mark Hughes: “You’re so cool Sparky, I’m glad we didn’t sack you…”
To Erik Pieters: “Give us a million, I’m begging you. I’ve only got one pound in my bank.”
To Peter Crouch: “Do the robot”? banter!”
To Bruno Martins Indi: “You look so much more realistic than you do on FIFA 17.”
To Marko Arnautovic: “Never leave the club Arnie, you’re better than Ronaldo.”
To Marc Muniesa: “You’re very cool but the only thing bad is you don’t score goals!”
To reserve goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann: “Nice gloves”? can I have them?”
Maybe the players were still amused by the pre-match shenanigans, as the Potters failed to hold on to their 1-0 lead against the Red Devils, with Wayne Rooney firing home an injury time equaliser.
