I'm not super convinced by Stones, just because he can do a fake pass to beat a striker doesn't make him Pique.

Got to remember he is still practically a baby. Plenty of years to improve.

Ya he's 21 but how much do players reaaaally improve from that age? Look at Sterling, the guy isn't going to improve massively, might become a better finisher but not much else.

Like 90% of players that become world class are already stand out performers at 19-21 and are consistently good.

It's not the same when it comes to defenders imo. Defenders learn with age, just like keepers and even midfielders do.
Players like sterling have a great first season because they have ways to demolish defenses, but once those defenses know the players and their moves, they get neutralised.

But at the same time with Sterling, if he learns how to finish that motherfucker would have won us like 5 games.
