Debut performance disappoints Brek Shea

Brek Shea has admitted that he was not happy with his first performance in a Stoke City shirt.

The American international came off the bench during the 1-0 defeat away at Fulham and went on to win a penalty, which Jonathan Walters missed.

Despite confessing that he is not "100%" fit, Shea has said that he felt that he could have performed better.

"I'm not 100%, but I'm getting better and I'm almost there," he told reporters.

"I just have to keep playing and get back into it. I don't think I played very well, but it's good to get a taste.

"Every team has their own style and the league here is faster so you just have to get used to it."

Shea joined the Potters last month following a four-year stint with FC Dallas.
