Stones' ballplaying ability and defensive skills make him an ideal choice for smallsided games

Manchester City's rising star, Cole Palmer, has revealed that he would pick teammate John Stones in his dream fiveaside team. The young winger praised Stones as an "amazing player" during a segment with the Carabao Cup.

Palmer's admiration for Stones is shared by other footballing legends such as Leonardo Bonucci and John Obi Mikel, who have both hailed the defender's abilities. With over 5 Premier League titles to his name, it's clear that Stone's impact on the pitch goes beyond just skill.

Stones' exceptional ballhandling skills at Everton caught attention early in his career, but since joining Manchester City he has further developed into a versatile player trusted by Pep Guardiola to play in various positions on the field. His proficiency makes him an invaluable asset for any fiveaside team.

In addition to being excellent with possession of the ball, Stones is known for his worldclass defending both inside the box and when covering channels making him a formidable force even in smallersized games. It comes as no surprise then that players like Palmer are eager to have someone like Stone dominating their side when competing at any level of competition.

Overall, it is evident why Stone’s inclusion would be vital not only because of this playing style but also due to how effective he can be across different types of matches from club competitions all through international tournaments where he continues shining brightly.
