It's not just on the road that Stoke struggle. As mentioned before, they've only won six games this season. They've drawn seven, a very high number. It would have been better to split those draws between wins and losses in all honesty. The victory against Manchester United was their first in 2014 and their last one before that came against Aston Villa before Christmas. They went they entire January without winning a league game. They haven't picked up back-to-back league victories since August and that was also the last time they've managed to win two games in the same month. Stoke can't string results together and its vital in a relegation battle. The sides around them are capable of doing so which makes it even more concerning. This is by far the biggest factor in the sides troubles this season and it will ultimately send them down if it doesn't change soon.
