Sorba Thomas on his brilliant form for Stoke
Sorba Thomas tells Sky Sports about his impressive form for Stoke City this season
It has already been the most productive season of Sorba Thomas’ career, and we’re only in January.
Nine goals so far, with seven assists in the Championship. He has been the shining light at Stoke City.
“A lot of it comes down to the understanding between me and the coaching staff,” he says. “Things have started to click recently, especially with me playing in a position where I feel I’m at my best.
“On the left-hand side, I can go both ways and people get to see more of my game. When I’m on the right, it’s a bit different.
“Of course, there have been frustrations in the past when I haven’t always been able to play there – I’ve never hidden that. But for me, the priority is always doing what’s best for the team and being on the pitch.”
Despite the output and the performances, Thomas insists he is still getting better at the age of 26.
“I wouldn’t say I’m at my peak yet. I feel like there’s still a lot more to come from me. This is just the beginning.
“I’ve had some good years since coming into the EFL from non-league, but I genuinely believe it’s only going to get better from here.
