‘Our recruitment has improved hugely’ – Many Stoke City fans react to player announcement

Stoke City have officially announced their second January signing following the arrival of Rhys Norrington-Davies from Sheffield United.
And following his successful spell at Kenilworth Road, Norrington-Davies was recalled by parent club Sheffield United on Tuesday morning, before the Potters confirmed that the left-back would be making the switch to the Bet365 Stadium on loan for the remainder of the campaign.
Can you name each of these 17 ex-Stoke City players just by looking at these 3 clues?
Norrington-Davies joins international colleague Rabbi Matondo in moving to Stoke, becoming the seventh Wales players in the Potters first-team squad.
The 21-year-old will be expected to provide stiff competition for the likes of Morgan Fox and Josh Tymon in what is becoming a impressive full-back department at the club.
Here’s how Stoke fans reacted on Twitter to the news of the Blades defender’s arrival:
WE HAVE A LEFT BACK AND NATHAN JONES IS IN THE MUD

Going to cost an arm and a leg to have his name on the back of your shirt. However, LEFT BACK!
