5 | John Stones - 2025/26

[Callmev]

He was called by Tuchel again for the national team.
What's he got on him? :))

 

[AshtonBlueMooner]

In the England squad.
Don’t get injured John boy…..please!

 

[red 2 hats]

I'd start him on Sunday next to Khusanov

[Macca77macca]

He needs games so bloody well hope he plays

 

[Cobwebcat]

John injured for England but fit for City? Has he got mixed up ;-)

Currently by far the best CB option that Tuchel has got

 

[jimharri]

Regular as clockwork. Apparently, whenever he coughs, his hamstrings snap.

Reports he has travelled home.
If so, is that the end of his City career?
Love the guy, but enough is enough.

Might be the end of his career-career.

He should consider punditry. Always found him engaging and amiable on camera, and he’d certainly be an upgrade on fucking Micah Richards!!!

Thanks Johnny Boulders but time to move on and invest his £150,000 a week wages in a proper proven replacement, no room for sentimentality

Think we already have a replacement who has come through marvelously this year. Being back Reis and we have two cultured RCBs that can both play the right side of a 3 or RB in a pinch, plus Dias, Guehi, Alleyne, Guardiol for LCB and LB on a pinch.

Sorted!

Nonsense

 

[IrishBloodEnglishHeart]

The Guardian running a story that it's Pep's fault Stones is always injured and can't be arsed.

 

[ancoats]

A rolling stone gathers no moss ? But a stationery Stones gathers £150.000 a week​

 

[Dazzle84]

I had a feeling he'd play the world cup and then retire. As it is he might not make it. For all people can slag him off for being injured all the time, the person most pissed off with it has to be himself surely

 

[Sir peace frog]

fantastic player, cant keep fit,john stones if he could stay fit is in with a shout of being the best CB in world football, sadly his body lets him down time and time again, think Marc will be his natural replacement , him and Khusa will make a tremendous CB pairing, ruben and nathan as experienced heads send allayne out on loan,not seen a lot of reis, maybe replace allanye as the young un in the squad

I can see him retiring, it’s sad to see but he’s had an amazing career and has been a brilliant servant to City, but sadly enough is enough sometimes.

Reminds me of the end of Vinny’s career, but even Vinny’s injuries weren’t this bad.
