The former centre-back feels that it is unrealistic for the England defender to expect to play every week and that rotation is necessary at the club
Joleon Lescott does not think that John Stones has been treated unfairly by Pep Guardiola and insists that he should expect to be rotated at a top side like Manchester City.
The England centre-back has been used sparingly by the City boss across the 2019-20 campaign, making just 10 starts in the Premier League.
That has been due to various injury issues but also Guardiola's preference to start Fernandinho at centre-back this season, with Stones struggling to make regular appearances despite Aymeric Laporte having missed a large chunk of the campaign.
