John Stones

[Big Yaya Wilko 12]

Perfect defender for Guardiola!

What a signing!

Welcome to Manchester, John!

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

Story was broken first by an amateur football club on Merseyside who tweeted that he was having a medical. Trueblue found it, but I don't think anyone believed it at the time.

Thanks mate! random twitter account!;) Who would have guessed it?! he!.....Great signing!! and even better that we dont have to listen to Pogba news all day!! Go Bluess!!!

Blame the iPad.

Haha, was only joking. Just a reference to one of my "trivial things that drive you mad" from Off Topic being the Americanisation/zation of the English language.

Great signing.

I think the 6 year deal really shows the confidence we have in the lad and we are expecting him to be a building block, for a very long time! Love all our signings this summer but feel this is the Best signing of them all. Excellent bit of business!!

Sorry if this has already been asked....with all the confusion over CL squad, please could someone confirm if we were able to register him in time? thank you!

 

[Scouse Blue]

What in front of Alex as a central defender, you have to be kidding!! :-)

 

[Akira]

Excellent signing.

 

[MarsLlama]

Got a link to this, mate?

You've probably seen it by now, sorry.

What, no specially prepared car or rap?

Scouser would have nicked it....

 

[G-Star Medium Rare]

Ah ha! SSN reporter has clearly been told to get his arse over to the Etihad
(and don't come back until you've got an interview with Ric?)

 

[Scouse Blue]

Makes Saturday even more interesting, because if he does start and has any specific areas of weakness, then you kind of think Golum should know all about them.

Anyone looking up reaction from Everton fans? I bet it's more classy than the dippers were with Sterling.

 

[SuperKevinHorlock]

I wonder if he will ever play for England again now he's joined city?

 

[samrmcfc]

Martinez said he's not for sale,
but we weren't satisfied,
txiki tried to get our man,
so the scousers started to cry,
sheik mansoors go so much money,
money has bought us stones !!
its bought us stonessss....

scouse bastards

 

[Scouse Blue]

Oi you lot, less of the scouse hatred, we are not all bad

Hopefully not. Hopefully they understand that, just like they signed him from Barnsley, some players move to different clubs at different times in their careers as they fancy a change or a greater challenge for trophies or more money. Just a fact of football.

We understood it with Shauny Wright but then not with Distin.

Looks like there is add-ons that will push the deal to £50mil

City Watch ‏@City_Watch 8m8 minutes ago
City will pay £1.25m in add-ons (max twice) if they win the Champions League during Stones' stay, so deal could reach £50m. [@hirstclass]
