Stones has earnt his first choice status and if we did that he wouldn't be sticking around for too long.

Pro Bono?
Is he club trained?
Dear god this is a new low :)Ben Mee is a decent/good shout actually.. has always liked him, the way Burnley has played has done him no favours but Ive always thought he was a pretty decent footballer actually, left footed CB. City product. Wonder if he wants to go somewhere where he will play more though, he will only ever be a emergency option here and play minimally.

Any word on Rodri’s contract talks? Only got 2 years left, need to get him locked down long term.

Ake played well last season and we would definitely need to replace him...going into the season with only 3 centre backs is a risk....as good as Rodri is and maybe Phillips can be we have seen in the past when putting DM's there that it aint as good...Rodri is slow turning back to his own goal (his only downside really)...no idea about Phillips to be honest.
The issue with Ake since his arrival have been his injuries....so he isnt fully reliable but last year he was getting better and better on the pitch everytime we played.
Replacing him with equal quality would be very hard but it would be risky not to.....as others have said Mbete looks ok but is a step down....Not sure he will make it at the very top where he would need to be to regularly play first team football. THB seems to have stagnated as well.

Only a bit? Total fucking pillock to be fair, a bloke who has been seen wearing sunglasses indoors. As my dear sainted granny used to say, not a full shillingI’m indifferent on him. Great front man, but a bit of a bellend.
Didn't know...thanks...Thought the new loan rules didn't count under 23s
I meant on occasion...Who would he play in a more advanced role instead of ? Not KDB ,Bernard and Gundogan and I think he'd play Foden and Grealish in a more advanced midfield role ahead of Rodri, maybe Mcatee too.
