Manchester City defender John Stones praised his team and club for their remarkable achievements as they set a new club record by going unbeaten for 31 Premier League games. Stones, who sealed City’s 2-1 victory over Wolves with a late header, expressed his pride in being part of such a special team.
The win against Wolves, though marred by a controversial VAR decision, brought City within a point of league leaders Liverpool and continued their unbeaten streak since their defeat to Aston Villa in December last year. Stones reflected on the team’s success, acknowledging the numerous records they have broken and highlighting the unity and dedication within the squad.
Stones commended the team’s approach to each game, emphasizing their relentless training and focus on tactics to secure victories. He admitted to being unaware of the 31-game milestone but expressed optimism about extending the run further. City’s consistency and resilience were evident in their performance against Wolves, where they fought back from a goal down to secure the win.
In contrast, Wolves have had a tough start to the season, facing top teams early on and accumulating only one point from their first eight games. Manager Gary O’Neil acknowledged the challenges they have encountered but remained optimistic about their prospects. O’Neil emphasised the need for the team to maintain their determination and elevate their performance to secure positive results moving forward.
Despite the difficult fixtures they have faced, Wolves are determined to improve their form and accumulate more points as the season progresses. The team’s resolve and commitment will play a crucial role in shaping their success in the league. As they continue to navigate the challenges ahead, Wolves are focused on turning their season around and showcasing their potential on the field.
