No night clubs to fuck around and waste time, no pubs and you see a different player.

When his mind is on the game he is really a different player.

Another solid performance today. Him and Dias look really good as a partnership.

The Barnsley Beckenbauer is starting to find his feet again

If you had told me at the start of the season, that he would play Laporte out of the team, I would not have believed you!

Very happy to see him succeed. Imo, this might be our best collection of centerbacks since the Mancini era at least.

playing better than ever must be a settled life at home, not shagging 2 women at the same time, lets hope he stays as focus as much as he can

He has a daughter?

Love the fact he has this piss head image just because of one time.

Its Silva, laporte, mahrez, rodri that are in the clubs every week.

no Mendy?

Loads of lads got a “stonesy” hair do in my town - if I had the hair I’d have one myself

His return to form is one of the most positive aspects of our season so far. And even though we knew he could do it. It was somewhat unexpected.
Well done to him.
Keep up the good work and stay fit.

Not once seen mendy - he prefers flying to other cities doesnt he

Where does leave Laporte ?

Out in the cold. Working his bollocks off to get back to match sharpness and eradicating fuck ups from his game and being ready to step during the festive period and beyond if required due to either injury or rotation

How it should be

At the moment, behind Stones which is fair enough on current form . Think we blew a lot of smoke uo Laporte's arse whilst he was out last season. Looked tidy for us but caught out massively by pace in big chumps league games against spuds and Lyon. To be fair to Laporte, he did not have much help around him but you could point to him not marshalling rhe back line and contrast that to how vocsl Dias is?
Be surprised if we don't swap the CBs tomorrow though

for me he is not a leader. He has allowed John back in when he was not even in the race. Dias showing up Laporte for me.

We've been here with Stones before.

Can't help but think when is the knock/injury coming that fucks his form up?

Talks of a new contract ffs really

I won't be getting carried away as he's been crap for pretty much his entire career.

But at the moment he is forming a good partnership with Dias and having a settled back 4 is key to a good defence. Pep needs to stop tinkering with the defence.

1 goal conceded in the last 8 games and it was a game stones wasn't playing in. The whole defence is playing well at the moment, probably with Walker being the pick of the bunch.

We do miss the laporte switch from left to right, no one else can ping the ball like he can in our defensive options.

I think we have conceded less goals than anyone else.
Just need to fix things in the middle and at the other end!

I see lots writing off sergio, which is a bit mad. I am sure he still has plenty to offer, we just need him fit and on the pitch.
Still by far our best option up front.

It is funny how they buck up around contract renewal time tho'.....
