John Stones has confronted a tough year due to injuries, missing 33 games and facing mental challenges during his recovery. After a hamstring injury sidelined him for the final months of the previous season, he is excited to return to full fitness ahead of upcoming matches. Reflecting on his struggles, Stones noted the frustration of being unable to contribute to his team's performance, particularly during a difficult season for Manchester City. Now back in training, he is determined to fight for his place in the squad as they prepare for the Club World Cup.
It's difficult when you're injured. There’s been points where you think, you've been giving all this effort, you dedicate all your life, especially how I approach or go about my life.
I find it very challenging mentally. I have had some very low points in the past season and I just have to come back and once you come over those things, you can't really see the end of the tunnel.
