Bollocks, don't know if is been brought on from those thugs last night. Dirty fuckers.
Hurry up back John.
Hurry up back John.
You might be right there. I read it differently. I read it as Stones had a back problem against Man United and felt it again tonight. I though Akanji was ill?!
Why not any defender so? It requires special skills and awareness which most at the back do not possess. I think Gvardiol might make a good job of it moving forward and indeed it might be the reason we tried so hard to get him.Needs wrapping up and doing little or no training a la Ledley King. It seemed to work for Spuds. Couldn't help but raise an eyebrow at his inclusion last night. Was it really necessary with big games coming up and knowing his susceptibility to to these ever recurring injuries? Just my opinion and don't want to go on about it...it is what it is now.
If Stones can do this job then why not Ake or Gvardiol. Time has come to find out.
Pep isn't to blame by picking John Stones - that's just emotion speaking. He has recently returned and needs game time. He was fully fit.
