NOT PERFECT BUT AARON'S STILL STOKED

STOKE CITY 0 WEST BROM 1

- 

AARON CRESSWELL admits the international break will feel like an eternity after Stoke surrendered their 100 percent start.

But the defender insists Mark Robins’ side would have jumped at nine points from four games despite being left to stew ona disappointing first defeat.

The 35-year-old is adamant the setback won't define Stoke's Championship campaign and they still have plenty of time to return to winning ways under Robins (below) when they are back in action later this month.
