The shape of him

John Stones is a 32-year-old defender at Manchester City and a England international. In 25/26 that meant 25 club appearances and 1,234 minutes. Defending is anticipation as much as tackling: reading the pass before it is played, holding the line, and starting the attack from the back.

The job

Win the individual duels, protect the space behind, and give the team a platform to build from.
