Guardiola: "When Erling is absent, John Stones can play as a forward"

Manchester City coach Josep Guardiola named the player who can replace Erling Haaland in case of his absence.

John Stones

"When Erling is not there, John Stones can play as a forward! John can be compared to Gerard Piqué, who had an incredible sense of goal. He has already scored a few goals. He is back, and I am happy for him," quoted Pep by The Guardian.

Additionally, Stones scored a goal against Prague's "Sparta" (5:0) in a Champions League match. For the 30-year-old footballer, this is already his third goal for the "Citizens" this season.
