Stones shouldn't play for England until the World Cup | Called up again (pg13)

Don’t the rules say you have to report and they decide
Given his history, it amazes me that he's still playing for England.

At this stage of his career and with his injury record, it almost feels disrespectful to still be traipsing around the world for half a match against Andorra or some other low level country. There's nothing gained and so much to lose by Stones in those matches.

So all over the summer transfer window this was predicted..this was why buying a centre half was crucial. Where are the happy clappers club knows best posters now?
Fucking shite transfer window management by the club. What top club doesn’t have a right back in the squad- we knew that Walker had to be replaced, our system is based upon ‘jumping’ full backs, but yeah the club knows best. Johnny Stones I love, but even a blind man with a stutter would have anticipated what has happened. And to compound it, we’ve kept another sick note in Ake, and a liability in Dias.

Viana seems to think he’s still at Sporting rather than one of the biggest clubs in the World. It’s fucking pitiful.

This club has lost its ruthless mentality basking in the glory of what we’ve already achieved. Big clubs don’t do that.

Sorry for the rant but had a couple of scoops….
 
Well in this instance you must be wrong because @jimharri is never wrong.....unless of course he was saying anything detrimental about John Stones!!

I'm not having a good week, my brother died yesterday so please people do not upset me over Johnny Boy because that might just bring on a meltdown of epic precautions. I don't mean a crying one but an ANGRY one. ;-) :-)

John will be all right for the Derby, he has probably told Mr Tuchel or whatever his name is, that he wants to be sure that he is recovered and 100% fit so that he can show everyone just how we beat Stretford United. :-)
Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
John boy will do his best for a derby day win for you next week, you watch and see.
 
He loves England and be desperate to go to the world cup so won’t ever drop out he be turning up next England games
He’ll also have his eye on 100 caps, love the bloke & what he’s achieved so hopefully he can have a successful final year in sky blue.

I’m surprised he’s still there though, Akanji can feel very unlucky to be shipped out while sicknotes Stones & Ake remain imo.

Those two were possibly retained for the "home grown" squad rules.
 
Well I am one of the ‘Happy clappers’ and I still believe he will come good. No one will deny my belief and support for John Boy.
Yes he’s had some injuries but he is still the best. IMHO :-) :-)
I love Stones...best centre half ar9und. But as I said over the summer...completely irrelevant if he can't be on the pitch regularly. The next one will be Ake.

Sorry for your loss Eccles, hope you're doing OK?
 
What’s mad is he still chooses to play for England with him knowing how often he gets injured
Is the correct answer!, You cant blame Touchel for picking him, Stones should be managing his fitness!

He is one of 4 (Kane, Bellingham, Rice being the others) that start for England if they are fit! His World Cup place is not in doubt if he stays fit!

He should have had the bollocks to explain that to Touchel before the squad for these games were announced!
 
Sorry for your loss Eccles, hope you're doing OK?
Thank you. I’m getting there but he is the second of my brothers to die in 13 months and I suddenly feel every one of my years! Sorry to interrupt the thread. Cherish your loved ones and give them a big hug tonight. :-)

So sorry about your brother Eccles. RIP.

And I hope that Johnny Stones is back soon. When fit, he is our best overall defender by far.
