Chelsea ‘lining up £30million transfer for Everton defender John Stones’

Chelsea are reportedly weighing up a £30million transfer bid for Everton defender John Stones.

I think this guy has qualities to be a big Right-Back. He is young (20 years) and training every day with Jose he could become a great Right-Back for the next decade.

In addition he is from England, which would be perfect if FA changes the rules to establish a minimum number of players born in England.

Stones is a very tall player, and WITH Zouma - Varane - Azpilicueta we would have much power in the set plays (fouls, corners ...) for the coming years.

I think that is an operation to try to make it happen. I see no better option on the market. A lot of money for a young boy who has already shown many things. With Financial Fair Play rules this is the kind of signings we need.

Hi friend!

I believe Stones is better than McNair because Stones seems like one of those players destined to mark an era in English football. And (IMO) McNair is a player who can become like Cahill for example. A great Centre-back but not a "chosen" as John Stones.

But I think Paddy McNair is a great player. Definitely.

Besides John Stones is a very versatile player, with leadership from behind, always well placed on the pitch ... I think he is with Varane and Laporte one of the three best young Centre-backs in the world.

As I said in my previous message, I think if we try signing Stones us, considering that I believe that Jose will convince Varane to come with us, I think we might consider his signing for this summer market or the following summer as Right-Back, forming a youth block of defenses with very proven experience.

Perhaps it is a strange experiment, but I think Stones - Zouma - Varane - Azpilicueta would be a perfect defense.

Regards.

Hi friend!

I believe that Jimenez would not fit in Chelsea. He is the typical player who defends strong and with "violence" perfect for a small team like Atletico de Madrid who survives by defensive and aggressive approaches from their coach.

I think his game is a little "dirty" to play with us.

Obviously he is a great player but I think in a team with tactical intelligence that we have now without a team which plays to "scare" his rivals, away from all that, Jimenez is a great center-back, not a TOP center-back.

Regards.

If we fail to sign Verane, we should definitely go for Stones. They're very similar really, young, pacey and good with the ball at their feet. Verane's definitely faster IMO but Stones is better on the ball.

Stones better on the ball than Varane ? You couldn't be more wrong.

I think the general opinion is that Varane is an elite ball-playing centre back. He could do the job in the midfield with his crazy passing skills. He's comfortably with either left and right foot, has fantastic technique, is able to release ball very quickly therefore is not so much prone to pressing.

While I find Stones decent but nothing more than that.

Varane is much faster than Stones. Varane is not 'pacey', he's an extremely fast player. For sure the fastest CB combining both acceleration and top speed.

For me there's not real comparision between potential of Varane and Stones, Varane is miles ahead any young defender. But it's not so much of an underapprecition of Zouma, Stones, Laporte and Marquinhos, just Raphael Varane is that good.

Varane's ball-playing skills as well acceleration and lateral speed as height and strenght as domination in the air as his composure and reading of the game make him one of a kind talent. Not comparision with any young defender.

If he really can't move from Real then fine but I think Chelsea and Mourinho should do everything possible to sign him then think about alternatives.

I like him but he is not what we need right now. What we need is a top CB with experience, someone who can effectively replace JT and improve the current squad to compete in europe. Varane makes sense because despite his young age he has bags of experience in him whereas Stones only started to play regularly this season. Also we already have the young promising CB in Zouma(although not as good as Stones).
