#5 | John Stones - 2020/21 Performances

[silvalining03]

Seems to have bulked up a little which will surely help. Needs to stay fit & get the mistakes out of his game. He is good at carrying the ball out of defence into midfield & drawing a player towards him

 

[Bluster]

He was very assured today. He played well against Olympiakas but I’d put that down to them being very poor. After today and looking back, he was very very solid and excellent on the ball. If he plays this well, is pretty hard to keep him out of the team.

 

[WEMBLEY76]

Very good performance,dominated in the air and very comfortable bringing the ball out and passing well,easily my man of the match,so pleased for him.

One of his biggest critics over the last 12 months , but pleased the lad has shown how good a player he can be against Olympiakos and Burnley , we have a derby game in a couple of weeks , if he plays and shuts that lot up then just maybe he still has future , looks like Pep has gave him another chance and hope he takes it.

For sure, the opposition needs to be taken into consideration, but it’s been encouraging to see him look much more assured. All the ingredients are there, it’s just not come together anywhere near enough as it should thus far. Still time though.

It’s such a key season for him because his resale value will still be decent in the summer and there’s moderate pressure from the EDS with Harwood-Bellis and Mebete.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Pleased for him. Lots of games coming up so 4 centre backs we can rely on can only be a good thing

What’s happened to this lad?

Looks like he’s matured and is taking no shit.

perhaps realised he’s one foot out the door and that has woken him up.

phenomenal return, keep it up John.

Really pleased he’s getting a bit of form back. Keep it up John.
