Second Centerback – John Stones

Stones has had an up-and-down first campaign in Manchester, but I feel it will make him better. He is only 22 and needs time under Pep to learn what his manager expects of him. He is a regular for the England National Team which is a high honor at his age. He isn’t afraid to do the dirty work for the team, and can be a threat in-front of goal with his head. With time, Stones will become one of England’s top defenders.
