Pulis pleased with progress

Stoke boss Tony Pulis is ready to utilise his squad again for their FA Cup fourth round tie against Wolves later this month. Pulis made 10 changes for the third-round replay at Cardiff, which Stoke won 2-0 after two goals in extra time from Jon Walters. And the Potters manager is likely to adopt a similar approach for the Molineux tie against Mick McCarthy's men. Pulis said: "I will use the squad again at Wolves, very much so. It was a tough game, both sides made loads of changes, and we are pleased to have come out with a win. "I don't have to justify (selection) to anyone apart from my chairman. We've got a 25-man squad and we pay players good money whether they are in the team or out of the team. "We wanted them to have a go and they did. That is all you can ask for."
