Fuller: Highly thought of at Stoke
Simonsen praise for hotshot Fuller
Striker Ricardo Fuller has been labelled an "unbelievable" talent by Stoke team-mate Steve Simonsen.
Jamaica international Fuller has been City's talisman since joining from Championship rivals Southampton in August 2006 and has already netted four times this season.
Fuller's temperament has often been called into question - he was sent off twice last term - but goalkeeper Simonsen has nothing but praise for the 27-year-old.
"Ric is such an unbelievable player," Simonsen said. "His sheer power and determination in and around the box and the way he torments defences makes him certainly one of the best strikers in the division.
"He's a vital player to our team. He creates chances as well and is a pretty skilful player.
"It's fair to say we have struggled to score goals over the last few seasons really but Ric has led the line superbly."
