After a sensational return from injury, John Stones is the latest guest on the Official Man City podcast.
The England international sits down with hosts Nedum Onuoha and Rob Pollard to discuss his glittering career to date.
Arriving at City in 2016 shortly after Pep Guardiola, Stones has since developed into arguably the best defender in the world.
During the episode, Onuoha, a former City defender himself, marvels at how Stones steps into midfield and dictates play alongside Rodrigo.
Stones’ ability to come forward was a key component in last season’s historic Treble success and again looks to be central to Guardiola’s plans in the closing months of the 2023/24 campaign.
That’s not to ignore his capabilities off the ball, with the 29-year-old more than comfortable going toe-to-toe with the most fearsome forwards in the game.
As one of the podcast’s most requested guests, Stones is clearly a fans’ favourite at the Etihad too.
In the full 45-minute podcast, we get a fascinating insight into Stones’ mentality and how he drowns out the noise to focus on the next game and being the best player he can be.

Such an underrated player. Has been incredible lately in midfield ๐ฉต๐ฉต๐ฉต
He always had the ability to be more than a defender, just needed a manager who knows ball
So brilliant to hear him say he love's City, not just the team but the fan's. We always appreciate that Stones. Stay happy ๐ฉต
A role model for the young city squad in the dressing room.
2nd best player at city only kdb is a head๐๐๐๐
Grealish should learn from John. Hope he comes back stronger and feels strong enough to carry the city team on his shoulders. The team needs him.
What a gentleman. What a baller. He is my favorite player for sure.
Looks like the comments were turned off in the previous video, wonder why that is
