I've faith that with time Stones will prove that he is a good defender. However, yesterday he was dog shit. He's a better passer than half the midfielders in PL, but he is bang on average as a traditional defender. His reaction to Gundo's back pass was horrific. Didn't know when to tackle or clear or hold the ball in tight situations.
 
Very satisfying "debut" against the best frontline in the world, at Camp Nou. It wasn't easy as expected. His bravery to play football the way he does (and his manager wants him to play) is amazing so far. Hope he keeps improving.
 
made a bad mistake. but that will happen all players make mistakes. still on of the best young defenders in the country for me and he's shown his class. i hope he doesnt get the same hate sterling got.
 
The world is crazy, he keeps making mistake after mistake yet hailed as an amazing talent after every game, I'm not seeing it I must admit and think this guy is one of the biggest frauds of all time. He's awful.
 
Was a careless pass but I thought he had a decent game besides that defensively and should have had a goal if Aguero could have stayed onside.

yep barca, city, united and pep were all wrong he's actually shit. apart fro mthe mistake he played well and would have scored if not for kun
 
He's young & we knew he'd make costly mistakes, he's got to learn from these types of things to show he can adapt. Reacted well enough to it & played well for the remainder of the match, shame his goal was given offside.
 
really poor from him today....cost us a goal directly....the pass was never on and he didnt look. he had already got away with one (to Kolorov - who was equally guilty of being sloppy)

If Pep is the man I think he is he will bench stones for the next game and put Ottomendi back on providing Kompany is fit
