Well for one Pep is openly a big fan of him. And secondly because Stones is everything Pep wants in a defender. Watch the way we were set up against Bayern in the friendly, notice how much of the ball the defence had? Stones is tailor made for that role. Pep isn't an idiot. He isn't going to sign a defender for £50 million unless that defender is perfect for his team.
Plus he's been the No. 1 target, for how long now.
