Manchester City player injured against Belgium in March‘Never ever before was I so disappointed. I didn’t like it’
Pep Guardiola has stressed the importance of John Stones staying fit by revealing he has “never been so angry” as when the Manchester City defender was injured in England’s friendly against Belgium in the spring.
Stones suffered a muscle problem 10 minutes into the 2-2 draw at Wembley on 26 March, causing his withdrawal. It came after he played all of the 1-0 loss to Brazil three days previously. The injury has hampered Stones, leading to him making only three Premier League starts since. The 30-year-old underlined his importance to City with Sunday’s added-time winner at Wolves, which followed an added-time equaliser in September’s 2-2 draw with Arsenal.
