Narcis Pelach is already looking ahead to the possibilities that the January transfer window has in store for Stoke City as he gets up to speed with the existing tools at his disposal. Pelach took over the reins from Steven Schumacher last month; Schumacher had worked with sporting director Jon Walters in the summer to reshape the squad he himself had inherited from Alex Neil. I came here and the transfer market was already closed," Pelach said. "[The January transfer window] is one of my responsibilities. We will see how our squad is and if there is the option to improve certain positions then we will do it."
