Of course two right footed centre halves can play together, but ideally, you want your left sided centre half to be left footed, obviously.
That's why Moyes was so keen to bring in Distin to partner Jagielka. It's also handy when you have a small squad to have the option of moving them to left back when needed, like Lescott did so well on occasions.

Stones was so good today that i would find it impossible to put Jagielka in against Arsenal ahead of him.

Next seasson i think stones with jags would be a good couple ! Disten 100% retire !
Still think his positioning is questionable at times but that will come but his composure on the ball is unreal seen a stat before he made 64 passes in the game the most on the field and completed for dribbles a high for a premier league defender this season really was a great leaving gift from mr moyes
It was a Rolls Royce performance. When a couple of our older fans are mentioning him in the same company as Brian Labone well that's good enough for me. He was superb today just as he was against Newcastle. How refreshing to see a young cb have the confidence to step out the back with the ball.
Cheers...and DOH!

Yarmolenko ? Yes please
Whatever happens when jags comes back doesn't matter. John stones is a joy to watch, no really an absolute joy to watch. Its natural when you see a player so good, to find faults in his game. I don't see any.
Its quite scary just how good this lad is. He doesn't deserve to lose his place, he just doesn't and shouldn't. The way he sees and controls the game for someone so young is astonishing.
Its a wonderful rise to fame by the lad and he deserves nothing more. He comes in after a big fee for an unknown. We all went ' wtf who '.... ' should of been spent elsewhere '.... etc. He scores a paneca against one of the best teams in europe and we all LOL'd. Then when jags got injured, we all shat the arl kecks at the thought of a youngster coming in at a crucial time..... except stones himself. Thats when we took notice and weren't LOL ing anymore.
Jags gets injured again and we turn to stones and now here he is, floating around looking like beckenbauer and putting in MOM performances. Its a quality rise by the lad and a wonderful story.
I admit when I saw that paneca I thought ' get in ya cheeky flukey get ' ... now I've seen him a few times, its no fluke. This lads is a quality, quality player we have here.
