He said it on the 93:20 podcast.
Don't think so, IIRC he said there were some rumours about Pep losing faith in him, he didn't say he'd heard it himself or that it was happening.
If he had a decent source saying Stones was going, he'd 100% have written a big article on it as it's a huge story. Looking at his twitter feed, he never did that.

He's doing ok for game time this season. Diaz not enough. Both need more time next season.
The point I was answering is the usual one which says our team is too good for a kid to 'break into'.
They all are, all top teams are too good. Utd were too good for Giggs, Beckham Scholes etc to 'break into'. It's just down to whether you make the effort to give them some game time or not & see what happens over a few seasons, or disgard them without trying.

Yeah I agree, we've had this conversation before, Pep managed to give shit players like Jeffren Suarez 30 odd appearances in what is quite possibly the best club side of all time, so he can definitely give out more appearances to our best kids.
The only thing I can recall him saying was that there was a press box rumour from a former manager that he was off as Pep had list trust.He said it on the 93:20 podcast.
My recall is that he said he couldn't stand up the rumour and doubted it was true.

It's an often used piece of reasoning, which was there during Mancini, Pellegrini & now Pep's tenure, that the teams are 'so good' a player needs to be as good as Aguero to get in it.
So let's just discard everyone who isn't.
The truth is: you should be that good if you want to stay in the team, but you don't have to be anywhere near that good just to get games, because, obviously, the team is fucking good!
That's why we could have Zinchenko at fullback, because the team is fucking briliant not because he is a reincarnation of Roberto Carlos.
As others have said, he absolutely did notHe said it on the 93:20 podcast.
Am I the only person right in thinking you're referring to Diaz signing here and not Stones leaving as everyone else is suggesting?He said it on the 93:20 podcast.
Or am I wrong? :O

your absolutely right mate, the timing of the post was just inconvenient that someone saying stones would leave was right above it.Am I the only person right in thinking you're referring to Diaz signing here and not Stones leaving as everyone else is suggesting?
