John Stones

[maccavennie]

Pathetic

 

[Zatara]

He was dreadful.

But was he taken off as he was injured or just so poor?

He looked destroyed when he came off.

 

[Moomin]

Can't blame him today, I know people want to.

System let's him down.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Never thought of him as a defender all the time I've watched him. He is a midfielder in sizing him up.

 

[Sy-]

Stones having "stomach cramps"? so bascially he thought "eff this" and subbed himself.

 

[TheFinnFan]

Stone had Diarra?

 

[arch stanton]

i think stones was getting his own back. Bye John

 

[blulouie]

Who..Stones gone ? He's been gone since August mate.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Oh so John had stomach cramps tonight? Ah that's a bit weird tbh given he's shown absolutely no stomach for the fight all season.

 

[EFCPaul]

Went off with the s***s. Caused by Coutinho running at him.

 

[Donald Twain]

Stones is a class act, ruined by a shockingly poor manager.

Yeah teaching him not to jump for crosses is a disgrace !

 

[Stan Lee Park]

Yeah teaching him not to jump for crosses is a disgrace !

He hasn't taught anybody anything about defending in his three years here.
Don't you think our precious joke of a manager bears any responsibility for how badly we have defended for two seasons?

Somewhere amongst the pages of this thread I posed the question: "perhaps the role of centre-half is a bridge too far for John Stones?"

I admit, the question was purely rhetorical.

The game's up John.

He's got a good touch, but he is not a defender, never has been. Combine that with a bad attitude, a lack of bottle and the fact that he is liable for most of the goals we concede now days - he can go, along with Lukaku, Barkley and all the other hyped up wasters. Unfortunately, Lukaku is actually really good, but his laziness and lack of first touch, combined with him thinking he's too good for Everton means he can bugger off as well.

Anyone else think his bottle went after gifting them a goal?
