#5 | John Stones - 2021/22 Performances

[rodders]

Proper modern day centre half is our Johnie. He's had his tough times in his personal and professional life but learnt from them and come out the other side and proved his worth. Glad to see him back.

 

[Maccblue]

He’s big he’s from Barnsley he’s our number 5

 

[ws01]

Hopefully we've learnt our lesson from the past. Give him a good run now.

 

[FantasyIreland]

He looks more comfortable and assured than Laporte,and a better partner for Dias IMO.

We need to play that potentially world class partnership as often as possible.

 

[Cambo]

Thought he looked very solid today and made no mistakes. Good performance.

 

[jaiguruKun]

Injured again, FFS.
Edit: just read he's out tomorrow for personal reasons

 

[Don Karleone]

Injured again, FFS

He isn't

 

[Semper aggressus]

Whatever it is I hope everything works out well for the lad. Can’t wait to see him playing regularly for us again.

Laporte's ability to hit those diagonal passes out wide is a great weapon but he also has a least one major mistake in every game, he gets caught so flat footed in nearly every game.

Laportes passing is excellent,but,again,Stones is no slouch in that dept either.

Its commonly the same defensive mistake he makes against any forward that knocks the ball past him,they either leave him floundering or he risks/receives at least a caution.

Still a fantastic centre half to have at our disposal.
