“Man City’s John Stones has done something that will leave Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka red-faced-this is disgrace to England forward after sir John stones makes him inferior😲

John Stones’ late winner against Wolves likely boosted confidence within the Manchester City squad that they can once again claim the Premier League title this season. In the 95th minute, Phil Foden delivered a perfect cross, and Stones finished with a powerful header, securing the victory.

Following the match, Jack Grealish praised Stones, as well as teammates Stefan Ortega, Ruben Dias, and Nathan Ake, in his post-match Instagram post. Interestingly, Stones now has as many Premier League goals this season as Bukayo Saka.

The English centre-back will be thrilled with his current form. Returning from the international break, the 30-year-old was eager to make an impact, and with his second league goal of the season—following his earlier strike against Arsenal—he’s matched Saka’s tally. While Saka has scored against Wolves and Southampton and provided seven assists, the Arsenal winger will be keen to add more goals as the season progresses, especially with a defender like Stones sharing his total.

In a similar vein, Josko Gvardiol has matched Mohamed Salah for away goals in the league this year. Remarkably, Stones’ two goals in eight league games is an impressive feat for a defender, especially since he has only started two of those matches.

Though not typically known for his goalscoring, Stones’ tally is noteworthy, especially when compared to attackers. Players like Jarrod Bowen, Mohammed Kudus, and Gabriel Martinelli, all considered attacking threats, have also scored two goals this season. Meanwhile, players like Jeremy Doku, Eberechi Eze, and Alexander Isak have fewer goals than the Manchester City defender.

With his current form, Stones has every reason to be proud. He’ll be looking to add even more goals to his account as the season unfolds, further contributing to Manchester City’s success.
