On the eighth anniversary of signing for City, revisit John Stones' appearance on the Official Man City podcast.

The England international sat 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 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.

Throughout this 45-minute feature, 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.

Our No.5 also reflects on some of the highlights in eight incredibly successful years at City.
