Stones was shocking yesterday. When we needed someone to step up after laporte's injury i thought he would
He has done nothing of the sort and his role on their first goal on saturday was a disgrace
We have spent millions on our defence and at the minute we have one very good cb injured and the other is our best ever defensive midfielder
The fact that fernandinho is showing this rabble how to defend is a fucking disgrace and otamendi, stones and mendy should be totally ashamed

Mentally he has gone.
Personal issues i feel for the lad but on a professional level, his dip in performance can not be excused and he has gone from looking like a Rolls Royce of a player to a Deer in the headlights one.
That said our CB's have had the luxury of Ferny sat in front of them and its key he is back there asap, i.e. the next game please Pep and that we identify his replacement asap as well because its absolutely key to the way we play under Pep.

He's absolutely dogshit but the problem is Pep won't play Garcia or Harwood-Bellis so he'll continue to get a run in the side.

We have been doing business very poorly! Look at what the rags did with Smalling, now they are on the verge of getting some good money from some clueless italians!
If we put Stones / Mendy on the market, we stand to lose a lot of money but if we loan them to lesser leagues, they would most likely perform brilliantly there and teams would be drawn into some kind of bidding war.
Mendy needs to return to France, it just hasnt worked for him here. Stones on the other hand can be loaned to the bundesliga or the eredevise, they appreciate ball playing defenders so he would do just fine in either of these leagues.
Smallings wasnt a 50 mil signing and probably is on lower wages as stones and mendy so that'll put teams of. Also good luck trying to convince stones to go to germany.We have been doing business very poorly!

The problem with him for me,is the number of touches he wants with the ball when trying to find a team mate.With this in mind,he is one of the biggest offenders in slowing the game down.

My biggest disappointment at the moment. I’m not one to jump to conclusions and always like to give people time before making a judgement. He’s had A LOT of time now though so I’ve been happy to pass comment this season.
He started the previous two seasons superbly but always struggled for form after returning from an injury.
By now he should have developed into a leader of the back four but he looks like a young lad who’s just got out of bed. He seems to lack the drive to become better that someone like Sterling has. He’s satisfied with how his career has turned out and doesn’t seem to want anymore.
Then you factor in that he only seems to play well when next to Kompany or Laporte, which for a player of his age and experience isn’t really acceptable at this level.
It says it all that Fernandinho is now better than him at centre half. For a midfielder to come in, who has never played the position before, and be better than an experienced centre half simply isn’t good enough.
Don’t get me started on his half hearted attempts to win headers from our own corners. Powderpuff.
