Stoke manager Tony Pulis insists that he will not let players leave the club ahead of the busy Christmas schedule.

Kenwyne Jones and Cameron Jerome have received plenty of interest from a number of Championship sides, but they will not be allowed to go.

The Potters have only managed to net nine times in 11 games this season, leading to Pulis being reluctant to let attacking players leave on loan.

The 54-year-old admits that he did consider some of the offers but with Michael Owen's fitness not where it should be he is reluctant to trim his squad.

Pulis said:"I won't be letting anyone go. We have so many games coming up we need all the players we can.

"Michael's fitness is very much at the back of my mind when keeping Cameron and Kenwyne."
