Poll Result: Where do Stoke need to strengthen most during the summer

Last updated : 04 June 2011 By Dan Buxton

The Potters have had a successful season but will be looking to push on over the summer and here are the poll results for where you the fans think TP should be looking to improve the team before the 2011/12 campaign.

1) Partner for Whelan - 31.4% - With Whitehead dropping out to make way for Whelan, before City embarked on a run of fine form, and Delap looking more and more off the pace a hard working, tough tackling yet driving force in the centre mid could make a big difference to the side

2) Left back - 22.9% - With Higginbotham injured until late October, probably meaning he will be unavailable until January, and Collins yet to prove himself at full back, an injury to Wilson could leave the Potters short in this department for half the season. Warnock has been linked

3) Partner for Delap - 17.1% - Some may have looked to replace Delap, others have looked to keep the human missile and replace Whelan in the centre midfield. Replacing the Irishman would see City looking for a player with more flair and a better passer of the ball to play the forwards in

4=) Left winger - 5.7%

4=) Partner for Jones - 5.7%
