I thought that but what would have been the point of bringing Stones on? If you can’t trust an 18 year old defender when you’re 4 nil up then when can you?

That said, I think it will be Fern and Ota for Saturday

Be interesting to see if he sticks with Otamendi. He is vulnerable against pace. I think Stones many come back in.

My thoughts exactly - Laporte's injury meant that someone had to step up to the mark and lay down a marker and basically say 'I will lead the line". Otamendi isn't capable but i truly expected more from Stones

That one move where he just failed to continue closing down the 1st newcastle equaliser just about did it for me, and I was a Stones advocate

He has a hell of a way to go to redeeming himself in my eyes. As someone else pointed out - stick him in a team winning 4 or 5 nil every game he looks good. When we are in a purple patch and need the back line to defend then he has been very poor

Couldn't disagree more.

If he hadn't stepped up during 2017/18, played almost every game and led the defence there would be no Centurions. You don't lose those qualities overnight.

There is still a question mark over every full back. With Kompany gone and Laporte injured, our defence is a car crash.

Because its a waste of your life my friend. I cannot imagine coming on here day in day out, to be rude and aggressive to fellow supporters. Its hardly adding anything to the conversation, is it?
