The ex-Liverpool man again proved to be one of Stoke’s most importantÂplayers this season with a low drive that piled more misery on Sam Allardyce’s side.In fact, as this stat from Opta shows, Allen isn’t just having a fine season by Stoke standards but is actually enjoying the best Premier League campaign of his career.
It seems his summer move from Liverpool is paying off. The Welshman is adding another string to his bow, having not generally been known for his goals in his time at Swansea and the Reds.
It’s Stoke who are benefitting and they head into the closing stages of the season in an excellent position. Just five points behind West Brom in eighth, the Potters are on the right track.
They can now enjoy a week’s break from Premier League action before returning refreshed and ready to go away to Tottenham Hotspur in two weeks’ time.
