John Stones was substituted out of the friendly between England and Belgium after just nine minutes, which infuriated Manchester City supporters.
John Stones was the starting defender for Gareth Southgate, however he only played for nine minutes at Wembley Stadium.
Early in the game, he was forced to withdraw due to a clumsy knee movement caused by a split second of hesitation.
Another user wrote: “For the life of me, I cannot understand why John Stones started this friendly or even played at all.”
“Oh my god, John Stones is injured. I can’t even handle it,” a third person said.
One more added, “John Stones is hurt.” You have blood on your hands, Gareth Southgate.”
One Blues fan said, “John Stones”
It’s a major setback not only for England but also for Man City, who take on Arsenal in their Premier League opener on Sunday.
Days have passed since Kyle Walker hobbled off against Brazil last Saturday, when Stones delivered his blow.
Therefore, Pep Guardiola might be without two important players for their matchup at the Etihad at the top of the standings.
