JOHN STONES is on a mission to take out his frustrations on Greece in a bid to get his season up and running.

But when it comes to his club, the defender is the stone Pep Guardiola has been reluctant to roll out onto the pitch.
In the last 17 months, Stones has started just 13 Premier League games.
His problems appear to stem back to March, when he got himself injured while playing for the Three Lions against Belgium at Wembley.
