Second Centerback – John Stones 

Stones is the future of City’s backline and has been able to pick himself up for some mistakes earlier this season. I like his willingness to dribble up-field with the ball and his aerial ability is an added bonus. He has a bright future with the club, and will only get better under Pep’s guidance. Despite getting some slack from the media, Stones is still young and learning. Just imagine how he will be when his game is at its peak.
