John Stones transfer saga

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Well if he kicked up a fuss publicly I'd maybe be inclined to agree, but he seems sound.

He always comes across as a boss lad.

 

[BoysInBlue]

They clearly aren't the exact same statements.

Same statement & carry same value.

If you want to be pedantic neither say 'He's not for sale'.

This is lik the lescott transfer all over again...... hopefully with not the same result.

Its nothing like the Lescott deal.

Lescott wanted away and City knew that.

John Stones is happy to stay.

 

[Lids1978]

Every player is for sale.

Messi is for sale, it would probably take about 150m to buy him, but hes for sale.

Technically speaking you are of course correct but we do not need or wish to sell essentially

 

[kithnou]

My take on it all?
Each day Stones doesn't come out and state he is staying is another day closer to me waking up and reading in here Stones has asked to speak to Chelsea or requested to move there.
Worryingly he is staying silent...

Further quotes from that same interview (or one he did with another paper) from Gary Cahill.

What I find really strange in all this, is how quiet Stones' agent has been.

Of course we do mate.

We got priced out of signing Scott Dann by Crystal freaking Palace.

Dont believe the clubs hype that everything is rosy in the money garden.

Well obviously you've missed that Terry already plays for Chelsea and apart from Jags and Koscielny none of them would be cheaper than the £30m we are being offered, which you said we could get better defenders for cheaper than the money it would cost to but Stones.

So go on if there's so many defenders better than Stones that would cost less than him and don't already play for Chelsea name them..

again making up things dougie. I never said at any point they would be cheaper than him, i said better than him. And yes the defenders i named are better than stones is RIGHT NOW, but stones will probably be as good if not better as he progresses in his career.

Sterling made it clear he wanted out, there was no need for a "charm offensive".

True

Who do you think is telling papers that Stones is interested in talking to Chelsea... I'm sure he smells a pay day or maybe that's just me being cynical.

Gary Cahill

I rate Koscielny but your bracketed comment is somewhat redundant.

Ask the RS and they will say that they have the best player in every position in 'de werld'.

Until that said player leaves and then the new incumbent will assume the mantle. To be fair, maybe this last sentence of mine is also redundant.

i'm on about real quality mate, not opinionated. Not too long ago konsielny was thought of as a terrible defender hence the ask arsenal fans comment.

So yeah, people can talk about who they think is the best but to be fair Stones wont be in question in the future.

 

[PITA]

Hes England captain.
Will be all time top England scorer.
Man Utd captain.
Won CL and Prem.
On £200k a week.

Where did it all go wrong Wayne ?

I think that you might be missing the point.

Your just being cynical (BUT PROBABLY RIGHT)
