John Stones

[RandomJ]

It was an open secret in the England camp that Stones wanted to join Joe Hart and Raheem Sterling at City and he will hope to secure his move in the next three weeks to ensure he does not have to report back to Everton for pre-season training.

Thought I saw him hanging out with Joe and Raheem a lot in the training clips on the news.

For 50m, you would expect a marquee signing. Yet, Stones is pretty far from that. But that's where we are.

have you forgotten how all the top prem teams have tried to sign him

Which City?

Coventry? Bristol? Lincoln?

I won't know unless there's "Man" next to it.

I hope it's us, really want Stones to sign.

Forget it mate! The managers on here have already declared him too expensive and not good enough

I have no idea what the market rate for a player is now. Lukaku's stand-in for Belgium gone for £33m.

£50 million for an unproven is very risky. everton wasn't exactly a fortress last season.

He's played 100 games for Everton and in the premier league.

Obviously Mourinho and now Pep saw enough from him in those games to make huge bids for him.

As far as I'm concerned that makes him proven.

You could put Anyone in that Everton team under Martinez and the defence would concede goals.

Not when he doesn't play. They get clean sheets when he doesn't play. Him and Baines

Edit: look I'm all for getting him, but £50mil upfront is too risky. Why not £30mil and see how he fares with clean sheets. Clauses on clean sheets.

what world are you living in where everton would accept clean sheets as a bonus structure?

Is this some new football manager or FIFA development I've missed out on?

If pep thinks he's worth 50, he's worth 50 to us. Why get the best manager around only to tell him he can't have the players he wants?

Darren Fletcher would not be cool with clauses like that.
