Have we not got rid of him yet? Or has he regressed so far that no one wants him. We must be paying a fortune every week to players who never play anymore.

Of course people would want him.

There are hardly any cbs worth shit, in the whole of the Premier League. Stones was England's no1 cb not long ago.

Eric Dier? Do me a fucking favour. Mourinho would have Stones in a heartbeat.

We could easily get Stones out, by asking a low transfer fee.

If he stays, it's because we want him.
 
Always rated John but have been told by a friend of a friend who's family live next door to his that he was always a sound young man but that when he moved to City he became Billy big bollocks and changed completely, Hope he sorts it out but to much to young always dangerous.

At this stage he's unlikely to play for us much if at all. I agree Dier is shit all right. Stones has been a huge disappointment for me. He looked the part but never save the odd highlight lived up to it.

He was great for us over a period of time but is prone to a random fuckup. Laporte is too.

Something has gone wrong with him. If the manager doesn't think he can fix it & use him, then he should already have ordered Txiki to get rid & replace him. We can afford to do it & take a hit, if need be.

If he stays, it's down to Pep.

And therefore it's down to Pep, to use him, otherwise he's fucked up, by keeping him.
 
He needs to go ASAP. I believe he only has 18 months left on his contract so this is the only summer we will get anything like decent money i.e 20-30mil - surely West Ham or Everton have that sort of money and could go with a centre back?
We have not got Kompany`s replacement yet, lets get that hurdle jumped first. Give it till Christmas to see how it goes, if Pep still does not want him, then move him on, for me that is a Rudiger swap

Could be true, but they’re probably friends of his ex-partner too, so probably can be taking with a pinch of salt.
 
Shifting the deadwood is clearly the biggest problem here. Finding takers for Otamendi, Zinchenko, Stones etc hasn't been as easy as expected. Also, don't be fooled by the "giving Stones another chance" angle being peddled about. If someone came in, we would've got shot of him without a second's thought. He's a lucky boy to be entering another season here.

From Adebeyor to Sane it is never easy to balance our wants with others at a fair value, but Stones is lucky and i doubt he understands just how much.

It's dead easy to get rid of Stones, just price him low & he'll get a move. Nobody in the Prem has a backup cb of his quality, even on a bad day & most don't have a first choice as good. He could play in Mourinho's back 10 on acid & find it piss easy.

If he's still here when the window closes, it's because Pep decided to keep him.

But will be lucky to get that chance, if it happens.

Think we'll ship them off out on loan on the last week if no buyers before that. Similar to 2016 summer window.
