Rumoured John Stones

[Johnnyeye 7,441]

Wonder what Martinez will sing under the shower after today

song from Grease:

"I got Stones, they're multiplying

And I'm losing control

'Cause the power, you're supplying

It's electrifying!

You better shape up, 'cause I need a man

And my heart is set on you

You better shape up, you better understand

To my heart I must be true

Nothing left, nothing left for me to do

You're the one that I want

You are the one I want

Oo,Oo,Oo Stonesy"

ahahahahahaha made my day

[Special Juan 27,429]

He was excellent yesterday. Showed amazing composure in bringing the ball out whilst being under pressure and simply controlled anything that was shot at him.

Well played son.

Wasn't he just another overhyped English player like Luke Shaw? Both should be Chelsea players by now.

[DYC. 7,542]

John Stones is a dork.

Jesus Christ, imagine Stones and Shaw in the same team - the closest thing to modern reincarnations of JT and AC. Coupled with Zouma and Azpi, the defence would have been set for a decade.

Shaw was too expensive apparently then we bid £38m for Stones a year later. Not fully convinced by Zouma yet but yeah, Courtois, Azpi, Stones & Shaw would have been our backline for the next decade as you say.

[Yeboii 1,844]

Obviously wanted to impress. The question is, who was he trying to impress? Martinez or Mourinho?

shaw wanted stupid wages, and united was willing to pay it because they was desperate

We offer stupid wages to our young players anyway. Those who aren't even in the first team picture ffs!

We don't offer more than 100k a week like United offered Shaw

We sure showed United & Shaw then. He's become the best LB in the League while we're forced to play Ivanovic.

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

If he will play THAT well he's United bound to be honest. They have a need and can offer better package.

I'm one of stones biggest fan and rate him highly but using yesterday's game to judge him is not exactly an accurate assessment of his ability. To get a more real and clearer picture, we need to use performances against good sides and more importantly sides that are in form and offer great attacking threat. Even lovren would look amazing against our attack with the form we are in at the moment.

What would Ivanovic look like I wonder?

Yup, my exact thoughts.
