He was, but Kev is a beast.
I've noticed Soyuncu late last year and this season. He is good, but he is 30 mil good, not 60 mil.

He's not a beast at sprinting though. It would be like a prime Beckham skinning someone - it never happened.

Arteta supposedly wants Stones at Arsenal. Due to our injuries it wont happen in winter but Id be fine with him moving on in the summer. Although that means we'd have to replace Otamendi and Stones in the same window.

Watching that Soyuncu play against us reminded me of Stefan Savic and not just the Richard Ashcroft haircut.

It's a no from me

We are going to have to replace both of these CBs anyway. Stones cannot stay fit to get a run of games and Otter should make way for Garcia. That said, I think we will see Fern given another 12 months and remain at CB and us look to buy an additional CB

Rodwell tried to, the cunt.

She was bad news anyway.

I saw something online—take that for what you will—that the club are worried about Garcia as a long-term CB at the club because of the physicality of the league. He's so diminutive that he might not be fit for the premier league. Small players (like our two Silvas) are fine in midfield or even like Sergio up top but at CB in the PL? i dont know.

Looked amazing to me for his age at CB physically - and we have run with Otamendi and Fernandinho for variable amounts so I doubt they are bothered to be honest

I reckon Fern is there for the next couple of years now. I think it'll be Laporte and Fern as the main CB partnership as soon as Laporte is back playing with Garcia getting more and more minutes as a main back up next season. I can see Otto and Stones both going in the summer and a new guy brought in.

If anyone wants Stones then get rid.

He was crap at Everton, he’s crap now and he’ll always be crap.

We don’t need to keep waiting to see if he’ll improve. We know he won’t.

We will never get £50m for him so it’s a loss no matter what. Take the hit and let him go ASAP.

Surely the rags will think he is worth 50? They thought Maguire was worth 85.

Jose "speaks directly" with Cancelo. Interesting...pretty sure that's not allowed.

Garcia is 6 foot and Stones is a whole 2 inches bigger than him. I doubt that will make a difference.
