Stone's confidence is rock bottom. The lad needs a few things to go his way.

For those watching on tv was there a foul on Raheem in the area about 5 mins before they scored?

Performance diminishing drugs

Most party drugs are.

A perfect half except John stones being.... well John stones, what happened to Garcia?

John Stones doing his Phil Jones impression.

Fuck nailed it. He has become Phil jones.

 

[Dirty Harry]

There was an invisible hole .

And Stones hadn't done badly up til then. But you're always feeling a mistake is never too far away these days. Ah well, it cancels out the corner for our second goal, I guess.

What do you mean these days? He has been terrible for ages.

I thought so

 

[BringBackSwales]

Stones just doesn’t have game time in him & I can’t see him getting it at city now.

he fell over as he misread the ball & had no strength in his legs to recover.

the other question is why was nobody covering the villa player in the box ???? Totally free.

same old issue for me playing fern does not work in defence end of!

next goal wins this game

Only if we score it

Most of the half we played sublime football. Stones' mistake doesn't cancel that. Great team.

People will fixate, especially as it is Stones, who unfortunately has made it easier for him to be singled out, but you are absolutely correct.

This is like Real — great football, gift them a goal, go on to score a few more now that we’ve been warned.
