Watch as a young Stoke fan's meet-and-greet turns into a very entertaining encounter ahead of kick off against Manchester United

A hilarious young mascot greeted Stoke's players and staff as they arrived at the bet365 Stadium for Saturday's match against Manchester United.

The youngster was in a line-up of children collecting autographs and selfies from the first-team squad as they got off the coach.

But he certainly wasn't intimidated by meeting his heroes - and was full of lines which had those present in fits of laughter.

His cracks included...

To Mark Hughes: "You're so cool Sparky, I'm glad we didn't sack you..."

To Erik Pieters: "Give us a million, I'm begging you. I've only got one pound in my bank."

To Peter Crouch: "Do the robot… banter!"

To Bruno Martins Indi: "You look so much more realistic than you do on FIFA 17."

To Marko Arnautovic: "Never leave the club Arnie, you're better than Ronaldo."

To Marc Muniesa: "You're very cool but the only thing bad is you don't score goals!"

To reserve goalkeeper Daniel Bachmann: "Nice gloves… can I have them?"
