5 | John Stones - 2023/24

[Eccles Blue]

I've just watched his press conference on the BBC iPlayer or whatever it's called and he said the strapping looks worse than it is.
They also asked him about the election, trying to trick him into discussing how the team voted!! As if he is going to tell them even if he knew.
Good interview all round, but just what we (ok me) expects from John Boy. ;-) :-)

Rice has always looked like that, for England at least, even before he joined Arsenal. Sometimes just refuse to show himself for the ball, or dare to turn with it. He's not a total shite footballer, but I never understood what the hype was then.

Exactly this. I thought he might improve playing under Arteta and with (generally) better players but still struggles to do what Rodders makes look very simple.

Colossal today. That header where he fought to get between Van Dijk and Weghorst has fucking sensational

Absolute beast tonight, if he wasn't so injury prone he'd be considered the best CB of his generation.

Who? Stones?

Was superb tonight, Seems to be always fit for England do players plays through injuries where as at club level the medical staff will not allow it? Just asking the question.

Ha, Ha, ha, ha, ha.
