Stoke City goalkeeper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Thomas-Sørensen-c34994 hoping for FA Cup glory – EPL news
Stoke City goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen is hoping his side can end the ongoing 2010-11 season on a high as they look towards winning the FA Cup title.
The Dane claims if his side can win the FA cup, it will provide a dream ending to a difficult season for him.
Lack of form and injuries have hampered the player’s progress in the current season as the 34-year-old lost his place to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Asmir-Begovic-c6841. Moreover, failure to cement a regular first team place for his club has seen Sorensen being dropped to the bench for his
national side as well.
Stoke City are up against Bolton Wanderers in the FA Cup semi-final at the Wembley Stadium on 17 April, 2011. If the Potters are able to beat Bolton, they will face either Manchester United or Manchester City in the final.
Sorensen is hopeful he can feature in the all-important semi-final against Bolton and go on to win the FA Cup with his side.
He said, “I could live with it if we get to the final and win the cup. It's a big goal to win something. I was probably about eight or nine when I saw my first FA Cup final on Danish television. There's a lot of things that make it special.”
The former Aston Villa goalkeeper grew up watching the likes of Peter Schmeichel perform in the English Premier League. He said that Schmeichel has been one of the great ambassadors of Danish football as he won numerous titles with Manchester United, including
three FA Cup titles. The 34-year-old wants to follow Schmeichel’s footsteps and collect a FA Cup winner’s medal.
Sorensen might leave the club in search for regular first team action as his contract expires at the end of the current campaign. However, Stoke manager http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tony-c35440 Pulis has stated that he wants to keep the player at the Britannia Stadium.
The former Sunderland goalkeeper is certainly taking his time making a decision about his future.
He said, “I really like being here, it's a fantastic club, it's good for my family and the fans are great. There's a lot of positives but the negative thing is I'm not playing. We'll need to discuss that and see where we end up.”
