question:
Stoke City appear to have bought astutely once again in the transfer market, strengthening in various areas and adding quality too. The departures of Steven N’Zonzi and Asmir Begovic are highly significant, but manager Mark Hughes has recruited in both positions and brought in players who can increase creativity and goals. They open their campaign at home to Liverpool, who were demolished 6-1 in the final game of last season, and the team is likely to have a number of alterations. Here, Sportsmail picks a likely XI for the duration of the season should all Hughes’s men be fit. Hughes set his team out in a clear system last year even while switching personnel depending on opponent and form. The front four, for example, was a carousel of names. It should be the same formation this campaign.Losing Asmir Begovic and Steven N'Zonzi this summer was a big blowBut Mark Hughes has responded impressively once again this summerStoke ended last season by battering Liverpool at the Britannia StadiumSo who is likely to line up for Hughes' side in this season's opener?Premier League news: CLICK HERE for all the latest from the EPL
