During England’s draw against Belgium, John Stones suffered another injury, leading to concerns for Manchester City fans. His replacement, Joe Gomez, joined Kyle Walker on the injured list, although Walker’s injury was not considered serious. England reporter Kelly Somers noted that Stones seemed to be walking fine after the match, indicating that the injury may not be as serious as feared, according to England boss Gareth Southgate.
The potential absence of Stones for Manchester City’s upcoming match against Arsenal could benefit the Gunners. Stones’ importance to City’s defensive and midfield setup was evident in their previous loss to Arsenal, and his absence could give Arsenal an advantage. Manchester City tend to struggle in big games without Stones, as they lack his calming presence and tactical influence. Arteta’s side could exploit City’s vulnerabilities if Stones is unavailable.
Manchester City fans will be hoping for Stones’ quick recovery to avoid any setbacks in their upcoming fixtures. His injury history raises concerns about his fitness, but the hope is that his latest setback is not serious. If Stones is unable to play against Arsenal, it could be a significant blow for Manchester City and a boost for Arsenal in the highly anticipated match.
