Actually thought he was pretty good, should have done a bit better with the Falcao goal, but the finish was special. Needs to develop more physically.
Bollocks. I just finished watching the game again and the only thing he did wrong was the Falcao goal. Everything else he was fine, played some great passes and scored the goal that got us the lead.
I thought he was really good today. Obviously an error for Falcaos goal but made that up with his goal. Apart from that he was very good and clever on the ball and very good defensivly. Otamendi was a fkn mess however.
Really? He was bloody terrible mate(as was Otamendi).
1st goal, he should be getting a head to that or at the very least be on Falcao. How Falcao becomes Sagna's responsibility on a crossed ball is beyond me.
2nd goal, Otamendi makes a bloody mess of it, but there's a split second where a top defender reads the issues and goes in to help. Stones saw it develop but didnt. Not his fault, but Kompany is over there preventing that from getting worse.
3rd goal, all 100% down to him.
He also continuously messed up attempts to play the offside trap by doing what he does best...drop back, drop back, drop back. He's f**king idiotic at it.
The guy is a bloody mess, but people are still defending him based on how he looks with the ball.
He needs a settled back four and goalkeeper around him. Otamendi is way too prone to these errors and it's stifling him.
He needs a leader next to him, if we pulled off a Bonucci signing this summer then Stones would become world class within six months.
