5 | John Stones - 2023/24

[Gaylord du Bois]

I'm sure both him and Ake could play in their slippers, if they wanted to.

Class. We’re a different animal with him in that role.

Top class on the ball, were so much better at getting up the pitch with him in the side. Must say, he was quite slow getting back into position at times though, that needs tightening up as better teams could exploit that.

 

[Otamendi's Beard]

Surprised there's not much in here after last night.

John makes us a far better team both in and out of possession.

Absolute Rolls-Royce who we need to stay fit.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

He’s probably my favourite player. He’s world class and makes such a difference to our side

 

[walker_is_faster]

He is one of the best players without the ball. He creates space for his teammates, it's a pleasure to watch him play.

I just hope the football gods allow Stones a decent run injury free.

 

[HaalandEffect]

Never know how long they will be injury free
