Stoke City boss Tony Pulis is satisfied with the quality of his squad.

Pulis, who strengthened his squad considerably last summer, goes into the hectic phase having not made any new additions during the January transfer window.

But questioned as to whether or not he has been left frustrated at not getting any new players in, Pulis said: "No, not really. Over the years we have done very well and this time around, it just wasn't there for us and didn't drop for us.

"If we could have done business we would have done, but we couldn't, so we get on with what we have got.

"The players have done smashing so far and we are very pleased with them and with their attitude and application."
