John Stones wants Man City to ‘make some more history’ as they chase treble
John Stones wants Man City to ‘make some more history’ as they chase treble
John Stones is determined not to ease up as Manchester City chase the treble. City claimed the first of a potential three trophies in the coming weeks as they wrapped up the Premier League title over the weekend. They now have their sights on the FA Cup final against Manchester United on June 3 and the Champions League final in Istanbul the following week, in which they will face Inter Milan. Defender Stones, now a five-time Premier League winner, said: “We’re back in training on Monday and we’ll go from there. We’ve got to keep the rhythm. “The hunger is there and we know what’s ahead of us now, that we can try and make some more history.” City were presented with the Premier League trophy after celebrating their success with a comfortable 1-0 win over Chelsea, courtesy of a Julian Alvarez goal, at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday. Their title triumph – their fifth in six seasons and a third in succession – had been confirmed the previous evening when second-placed Arsenal lost at Nottingham Forest. City trailed the Gunners by eight points last month but have surged past their closest rivals on a run of 12 straight wins. I've been here nearly seven years now and we just keep going from strength to strength with the players that we've got, the team that we've got and the improvement John Stones Stones said: “I don’t think I had time to doubt what we can do. I think it was just focusing on what was ahead of us, focusing on winning. “We’ve done it so many times now. We just came on this run, and it’s just incredible what kind of team we’ve got. “I’ve been here nearly seven years now and we just keep going from strength to strength with the players that we’ve got, the team that we’ve got and the improvement. “The titles that we’ve won – I think it speaks for itself.” Stones has been one of City’s key players during their strong run throughout the spring, playing in a hybrid defence-midfield role. The England international has been part of the back line, at either centre-back or right-back, when opponents have been attacking but has stepped into midfield when City have been in possession. Consequently he has made a big impression at both ends of the field. “I absolutely love it,” he said. “It’s something new for me that I’m learning, giving my everything, every game. “I don’t know if it’s my best football but I’m absolutely loving playing. “It’s always easy when you’re winning and playing the football that we are, but it’s another string to my bow and I am absolutely enjoying it.”
