John Stones

[Gabriel]

Welcome and good luck to the lad.

The system we deploy means mistakes will be made, and he'll likely make some, too, but we need to be patient and ignore the inevitable media hyperbole when he does.

Class signing and a classy centre back. He's young and will probably make mistakes but we have to get right behind him. He could become something truly special with Guardiola nurturing him. I think he'll go on to become world class.

6 year deal

Probably to spread the big transfer fee a bit more. Risky....let's hope it pays off! Trust in Pep!

Does he track back?

Imminent.

Watching his CityTV interview, and i'm really surprised at his reaction. He looks absolutely beaming. Signings don't tend to look too emotive but John's visibly struggling to keep it in.

Welcome fella.

Loved the "meanwhile in the City dressing room" video on City's twitter, nicely done.

Stones has had a lot of pre season game time for Everton so match fitness shouldn't be a problem. Hopefully he can hit the ground running, Pep wanted him and that speaks volumes!
