John Stones transfer saga

......yep, a few reports saying Stones is ready to force the issue. We'll see. If that is the case I presume that means he forfits his personal %, which covers what will be owed to Barnsley. It would also mean us setting a total, perhaps £45m.

The S*n claiming the lad has or will put in a transfer request.

Yeah, this is from last night. They're the only ones claiming this, no source, no insight. All the broadsheets published since like the Times & Independent haven't claimed that.

Stones won't put a transfer request in, not happening.

The Mirror at it, now . Saying the move would be good for Chelsea and England . I'm half expecting a Stones/Chelsea comic strip in the bloody Beano soon ffs

Not the lads character mate, just can't see it. I'm sure he'd accept the move if we agreed a fee, but I just can't see him doing a Lescott and forcing it.

I can't wait until he turns Chelsea down so all these bellends on talk sport and In the papers realise they haven't a scooby doo.

Rags are doing everything they can here...hilarious

Feels like this is going to get more desperate for a few days. Hoping when the media and Chelsea have finally accepted the bullying and spin hasn't worked then they will change the message to avoid absolute humiliation. nothing has changed. they now know this won't happen without Stones really forcing but they have been claiming he has been about to put a transfer request in for weeks. It is like the spin is on rotation. Not For Sale. Going nowhere.

He's a young lad from "Oop North " . Maybe living in That London doesn't appeal to him

Yes, questionable at best.

We're not seriously giving that scum filled rag any credence are we?

As I've said I've heard this more than once from people who know him, what I believe will happen is Stones will let Chelsea keep pushing, then as soon as they have a bid accepted other clubs will match it, then he'll choose and I can't see him choosing to move south. From what I've heard about the lad
