Stoke defender Danny Higginbotham has said his second debut for the Potters felt like he had never been away.
The 29-year-old made his return to the Britannia Stadium after a year away in Sunday's 3-2 home defeat to Everton.
He told BBC Radio Stoke: "You walk out in front of a full house here and it sends a shiver down your spine. It feels like I've never been away."
Higginbotham re-joined Stoke on transfer deadline day after leaving to join Sunderland in August 2007.

"All Premier League games are difficult," said Higginbotham.
"But we'll have to go to Anfield with the confidence that we can get a result otherwise we shouldn't bother turning up."
The 29-year-old also said Stoke's performance against Everton proved they can compete in the top flight.
"We've shown that we are capable of mixing it with the best teams in the Premier League.
"Now we will roll our sleeves up and get ready to go again."
