"He’s a good shot stopper, maybe not as good as Alisson but he’s better with his feet.”
Virgil Van Dijk
"He’s calm and has that bit of class about him.
"Social media will tell you he’s struggled recently but I’d still have him.”
“Stones is top. When he was first at City it took him a while to get into it.

"He’s obviously a quality player, but sometimes it can take people a bit longer to transition.
"Last year he flew with that inverted fullback role.
"I like him as a player. He’s good on the ball and solid defensively.”
Sergio Busquets
"I could watch him all day, it’s just enjoyable when he plays.”
Kevin De Bruyne
"It speaks for himself, he’s just a top player.”
