John Stones

[mat]

Fuck the price tag and comparing him to other players at other teams.
Is he better then otemendi and mangala ??
The answer is yes and if you don't agree you really don't know football.
Stones will captain city and England for many a year

Is that you Mr Stones?

Why wouldn't Everton overvalue Stones and undervalue Bony? We are desperate to get rid of Bony and desperate to sign Stones. They hold the cards, not us.

Nobody has said they wouldn't.

What proof is there that we are desperate to get rid of Bony?

We have not been linked with any strikers and we were cutting it fine with just Kun, Bony and Nacho last season.

Secondly, Stones is desperate to leave Everton. Most of the time that would dramatically decrease a players value. Yet in regards to Stones it seems to have the opposite effect.

we are simply richer. they are . even without money, a colossal club. I I think we , well some fans, are getting a bit above our station.

We were simply richer in 2008. Since then we've won two league titles, multiple cups, been in the Champions League since 2011, and have the likes of Sergio Aguero, KDB, and other stars in our squad. One other small thing separates us and that is that Pep Guardiola is our manager. Kind of a bizarre point you are making.

Stones wants to leave. I am not sure about Bony. They would be stupid to deny Stones a move for the 2nd season running and they need to crack on with their own team strengthening. All they have brought in so far is a keeper. If their owner really has put them on a new financial footing, then arguing over 3-4% is counter-productive

if you strip the money away we are level. not hard to understand.

But the new guy is only an investor not a buy out!!! Something still fishy about this Everton deal imo

We are desperate to sell players then as we are over our CL limit currently and adding Stones will put us further over. Many believe that Bony is one of the 4-5 players we will be required to sell this summer. Everton knows this. So maybe we want to keep Bony (I don't believe that for a second) we still are in a position where Everton hold the cards.
