Begovic urges Stoke to perform against all teams

Stoke City keeper Asmir Begovic reckons it's time for the Potters to turn up against the Premier League's lesser lights - not just the big clubs. A trip to Crystal Palace on Saturday is next, and Begovic told Sky Sports News HQ: "When it's a big occasion, when a big team comes to town and you get a good result it gives everyone a boost, and hopefully now we can take that into the next games.

"We're searching for that little bit of consistency where we can play against every team the way we have in those big games, so that's something we have to work on."

Begovic continues to be linked with some of England's biggest clubs, but he said: "It's just part of the game, you learn that as you get older.

"I'm just enjoying playing here and trying to get better all the time. It's flattering to see yourself linked with certain clubs, but at the moment I'm just really focused on what I'm trying to do here."
