Stoke City picked up a vital three points at the weekend as they beat play-off chasing Nottingham Forest 2-0. 

Goals from Peter Etebo and Benik Afobe were enough to see Nathan Jones' side come out with a convincing win, and the Potters certainly showed promising signs.

Etebo's display caught the eye as he put in a solid performance and will be delighted to score his first goal for the club since arriving from Portuguese side, Feirense in the summer. 

He had a hefty price-tag to justify, which he had struggled to do in the opening stages in his time with the Potters, but he's shown promising signs recently.

If Etebo can build on this excellent showing, then he could play a starring role in Stoke's promotion push next season, with a top six finish out of the question in this year's campaign.

The Nigerian took to Instagram following the win and Stoke City supporters were full of praise for his performance.
