John Stones

[Blues Harp]

Moshiri is putting nothing into this club, It's obvious

Bought us for a cheap fee and will pocket 100m from sky alone

Add Barkley/Lukaku/Stones and there's another 150m

deluded you..Howdo you know this ??

A lot of fans want to have their cake and eat it.
In the world of business, unless you're a well connected bank/insurance company, that's just not how it works.

Rio even said it himself.

And Pep is no mug. He sees the talent. Paid the money. Dropped other centre halves out of the Europe squad for him.

Yep.

Will be a star and one of the best defenders we have ever produced. Not a doubt in my mind

 

[Old Blue 2]

Proablt the most skilful centre back we will ever witness.

Go tell that to Colin Todd, or more pertinently, those of around my age who saw him in an Everton jersey...

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

Didn't they have a few more 17-18 year olds sold to bigger teams as well in the last few years? If those get sold on for more than £10m each (which seems to be the price to be paid for a crap English/British footballer lately) then they're looking at a healthy profit for themselves, fair play to them.

Likewise with MK Dons I think.

They did a few crap deals without sell on's before the Stones deal. But everyone at Barnsley knew this lad was going to be top drawer, so they got the deal right.

I'm not your age though, so.....

Glad he's gone before he can put in a Lescott arsenalesque performance.

He has the potential to become a world class defender, but he also has the potential to become the next Jack Rodwell.

For the money we can't complain. I will feel better if we can get Williams in by tomorrow though.

Stones gone at their Satanic Majesties Request. You cant always get what you want. Now for the Aftermath.

 

[GwladysStGirl]

Happy with the deal overall. Personally I don't think City will give him the time he needs to devolope. They're expected to win the league and compete for the CL. If Stones makes a couple of mistakes the City fans won't be as forgiving given the £47mil price tag.

A 32 year old hasbeen replacing one of England's brightest talents. We're an absolute joke club.

I saw Colin Todd mate and what a fantastic player he was. But, I do do think Stones is as good as if not better than Todd - who was grossly underrated. Would have loved to have seen Stones here for a few more years, he was a joy to watch at times

 

[John Osters Love Child]

i know it's not a popular attitude to have but i wish the kid well.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

45 seconds - never forget.

So, should the 'player' tag be removed from this thread now ?

 

[Petit]

Not concerned lad - he don't want to play for us so get rid - I will be there on sat cheering the team on - will you ? or are you a boo boy?

I always support Everton, always have and always will.
