John Stones - 2016/17 performances

[marco]

this guy is going to be an absolute star,,future captain for us and england,,no disrespect to everton but he didn't have the best seasons last yea, its about who's around him and he never had that with everton or england

 

[pudge]

Wasn't convinced by Nico tonight...

Agreed but at the risk of straying off topic, Stones was everything we'd thought he'd be once again.

Big big test for stonesy Saturday.

i don't expect to come out of that game without a couple of players down at the A&E,its not a fixture i get excited about i'd take the point before at there place providing we get no knocks to our players

Looks like a player to me! Agree there is question marks when we are under pressure, hopefully someone can prove me wrong but didn't appear to command the aerial battle.

However when we passed along the back he was the one mixing it up and doing the passes between the lines.

I know they where poor but I actually felt it was the start of something happening when a Stones had his head up looking for Silva or KDB.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Must have thoroughly enjoyed his first 180 mins in a City shirt, been a walk in the park for him.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

very good game from stones. looks so composed

 

[Blue Hefner]

Played well as did Otemendi - I was very impressed with the lack of silly free kicks we gave away compared to last season

Agreed but at the risk of straying off topic, Stones was everything we'd thought he'd be once again.

He certainly was!

Really impressed so far

Was brilliant yet again. Laughable people said he couldn't defend. Fast becoming one of my favourite players.
