The three youngsters have looked decent along with Zinchenko.
Not sure what to make of Stones in that role. Not great going forward.


I think Stones is doing fine. He just needs to be less hesitant with the ball at his feet. Either drive forward, find a split pass to a attacking player, or lay it sideways/backwards first time. More time in the role should give him more confidence though

That's a fair comment. I've been impressed and frustrated by him in equal measure.
I'm not driving a train and watching the game (That would be irresponsible) But I'm watching the game with Mr J Daniels. Does this help?
Oh and I'm techno retard.

Incidentally, I was in Wild Wings on International Dr for the Lyon game with Mr Lingo. A fun day was had as usual. It's a highlight of my annual trip to see Steph's folks.

And a similar one from Foden to Walker

Is that Phil's first ever yellow?
