The former Blues star admits a man following in his footsteps has struggled to justify the faith shown in him since making a £47.5m move
John Stones has failed to “click” at Manchester City, and Pep Guardiola will not make the £47.5 million ($59m) centre-half any better by allowing him to make mistakes, says Sylvain Distin.
The Blues invested heavily in the England international when luring him away from Everton in the summer of 2016.
Stones has formed part of two Premier League title-winning squads and a domestic treble, taking in 129 appearances along the way, and is still only 25 years of age.
