I wouldn't bet on it!

Told you.

 

[jared]

Cruel too cruel

 

[bluemoon32]

Stones, so many things i could say but i wont.
He's just not good enough

 

[kaz7]

Why do we go to sleep

 

[Damanino]

If Real has 5-6 attacks vs us will they be scoring 5-6? Why dont we work on defensive situations?

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

How did John Stones get outmuscled by Wilfried Fucking Zaha?

 

[Heisenberg's Blue Sky]

What the fuck was stones doin??!! Make a tackle you dick!!

 

[nmc]

Said it many times. Stones is mentally weak. He’ll never be someone we can rely on. He’s got talent but physical strength is not enough - his head is all at sea at times.

 

[razman]

Hope this pep learns from this....don't rotate the fk out of a winning team !!!!

'Never Win at Home'

 

[cjn]

Yeah, same here

 

[christened at st marks]

We need another 2 CB that are quality

 

[kaz7]

Sergio does al the hard work or the defence to go to sleep

 

[colorado blue]

Too crap for even Sergio to save us today. No excuses just not good enough

A natural leader apparently.

 

[brummie blue]

And not for the first time this season, this is what happens when you lose your best centre half to retirement and don't bother replacing him, and then you have the bright idea of moving your best midfielder to centre half. The decision makers this summer well and truly messed up.

 

[razman]

Only pep and stones to blame for this

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Stones has the strength and presence of a 12 year old, decent player on the ball but as a strong CB, way short of what is needed

 

[Jag]

You can make all the comments you want about Otamendi but he would have taken his chances by tackling Zaha outside the box instead of letting him run by him. Stones is a coward and will never live up to the hype.
