Kompany: Don't doubt John Stones

Manchester City legend Vincent Kompany has never doubted John Stones. He also thinks the 25-year-old will rise at the Etihad Stadium.

Last season, John Stones was more often booked by Pep Guardiola. His appearance is not enough to satisfy Pep, especially in important matches.

Despite this, Stones had never played a memorable match in the previous season. Kompany thinks that the talent is still there and that the Stones will rise this season.

"I always say that John Stones is one of the most talented defenders, he has a promising future, he has done a lot, don't forget, he is not a young defender without experience," Kompany told Soccerway.

"He is one of the main defenders of the Premier League winners, and one of the things I expect from him is regularity and regularity of physical conditions, and then he will show the world how good he is."

"In the end, if City can win the Champions League or whatever, people will suddenly rate Stones in a completely different category."

"He just has to get on the pitch, be himself and he will be fine, I haven't seen any signs of weakness that I have to worry about, he's a first class defender. Everything will be fine, without a doubt," Kompany added .
