Stoke City fans have delivered their verdict on D’Margio Wright-Phillips’ performances after his Championship debut against Hull City.
After starting for Stoke City in their 2-0 win over Leyton Orient in the FA Cup, Wright-Phillips was handed his Championship debut for the Potters’ clash with Hull City on Sunday.
He was involved in Michael O’Neill’s side’s first goal, collecting the ball before finding Tom Ince in the middle of the park, who picked out Sam Clucas on the left-hand side who swung in a cross for Jacob Brown to duly head home beyond Nathan Baxter.

He was brimming with confidence throughout and looked sharp before making way for new signing Lewis Baker with 20 minutes to go as the Potters secured a 2-0 win away from home. His efforts were rewarded too, being named man of the match.
