Peter H Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Sick to the stomach. I said about an hour before this news I am worried about not strengthening enough before window closes. Pissed off with Stones as he could have put this request in a month ago. Bring the lad in from Barnsley get him in the England set up and then boom...... Fuck you Everton with a week to go. No fucking respect. Let's get the money and move on. Could just be journo bs milesey. Reserve your judgement on John until we know for sure. I can agree with you if its true but I guess you have to see the lads side of the story too. Probably a hefty wage rise and CL football. He probably thinks that it improves his chances of staying in the national team. He is wrong tho because England are not going to field a bench warmer.

c1982 Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Again. Until I see real evidence, I'm withholding judgment. You can't trust sports "journalists". If the club makes a statement or the player himself says something, then we can analyze it. Right now, they are selling advertising and that's it. Reported in the local papers now. Seems pretty specific on details. http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/confirmed-john-stones-hands-transfer-9927193 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Thats if it is true) England will still play him if he's on the bench for Chelsea. Hodgson has actually said so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Zoo Posted August 25, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 If we're all being honest this will be a good move for John. He will a perfect fit for the Vitesse defence.

Matt Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Everton really should come out and confirm or deny it. It's not fair on the fans.true, but that also feeds the media machine. Do the same as when Baines was supposedly being forced to hand in to transfer request. Keep quiet, player and club, keep resolute, make a statement after the window is closed saying how relieved he is. Job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Thats if it is true) If it wasn't true the club would be out to deny it by now. This is definitely true and I think the club are just discussing the best way to soften the blow to fans. Thinking of shite to come out with that will still promise fans a stronger squad come 2nd September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 If he has just sell him. Not in to having players here who don't want to play for us. If it's true, fuck him nobody is bigger or more important to the club. It's gonna be a shit season anyway, we'll end upwith a loan and the 2 south Americans at the end of the window if Stones goes we'll end up with the same plus Johnny Evans and the money will disappear like it always does. I'm fucking sick of Everton I really am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Baines was a little different though Matt. He wasn't pushing for the move, he said himself when them fans filmed him in his car, if the club accept an offer I'll go, if not I'm happy to stay. May have been a bit of bull shit in that, but he didn't push for the move. The club need a statement tomorrow before the match, if they haven't confirmed by kick off the boo boys might make John's mind up for him.

This. I'm worried about our impatient fans jumping on him before knowing the whole truth. I'll reserve judgment until it's confirmed.

BarnsleyFan Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Yes but he won't get a loyalty fee based on the remainder of his contract. No but the extra 60k a week plus will make that irreverent Hes one of our own Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 I like the sentimental bit, but he's not really. I'm not saying he's a mercenary, I actually think he's quite the opposite. But he wasn't in any rush to stay with Barnsley. I might just be being picky after today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 If I was Everton, I'd allow him to go, accept the transfer request but refuse to do business with Chelsea. For being cunts. Barca, United. Anyone but Chelsea. Scum bag of a club. Bellends since 2004. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarnsleyFan Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 (edited) I don't get it? From Barnsley, started at Barnsley, developed at Barnsley, Loves Barnsley FC (see Gareth Southgate's comments before the u21 game) Most of all, Barnsley fans are proud of him. It's not the same for Mason Holgate. PS If any of you are going tomorrow, take a look at the training ground (Next to the Away End). That's the places John Stones developed for 9 of the 11 years hes been attached to a professional club.

If so, don't be, it happens to us, it's the nature of the beast. He's not one of your own he fucked you off for us, he's soon more than likely to become one of Chelseas own.

nyblue23 Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Can't see him playing tomorrow. Who plays then? Back four of Oviedo, Jags, Browning, Coleman with precisely no one to cover if Stones isn't in the squad. Unless RM uses Barry to cover in which case... shit.
