John Stones

[toffeejack]

His head has been elsewhere for me all season. Fully expecting a transfer request to be lodged asap after the season ends.
Damn shame.

most definitely, how can that no be expected though? he's still new to football, he's not going to know much about a 24/7 media spotlight on him or the world's best clubs after him, regardless of his confidence.

i don't understand the other posts on here slating the lad's form though - he's still extremely young, all young players show spurts of inconsistencies.

No one is doubting John's ability here. We're doubting Roberto MArtinez's ability to get the best from him and our defence.

Will become the finest CB of his generation, oh I will laugh at his doubters.

Or not

Or not

Some things are just set in Stone.

/sigh. Weird hysteria.

The lad is destined for the very top.

I still maintain he would benefit playing under a manager that appreciates the art of defending, but he'll reach the very top of the game.

Beckenbauer and Maldini in their prime would struggle in this Everton setup.

I know everyone blamed his agent at the time and said it was all for the money... but it is fairly obvious that working with Mourinho would have been a massive draw to him for that exact reason

Come on, he's 22 - that is nowhere near "extremaly young". That might be said about the 17 or 18 year old footballer.

Its young for a top quality centreback mate.

You got me. He's 22 in may. That changes everything. He still have time

Franco Baresi was runner up in the balloon d'Or at the age of 29.

I dont mind you being wrong, but you should maybe prepare yourself for the fact that football isnt really for you.

It is but if he's to be one of the greatest of all time and that kind of propaganda slogans then there were loads of superstars that were more than the bench warmers in the mid table clubs at his age

Because i don't like bulshiting ? What's next ? Tom Cleverley to be one of the world's best playmakers or golden gloves for robles ?

This is the tragedy that is our defence. We have coleman , Baines , Mori , jags and stones. All class acts and wanted by other clubs all the time but we leak stupid goals. There is only one person to blame here !

Exactly. I'm sick and tired of my mates who support other teams asking me, why we concede so many goals when we have a defence full of internationals. I just tell them to look no further than our dugout. He couldn't get Wigan to defend and now he can't set up a defence made of internationals to defend either.

Dont be a wet noodle lad.

Will be in time one of the very best defenders in the world, he's that talented.

Just hope he's still at Everton so we can enjoy it.
