Stones tipped to hit ton
ROSS BARKLEY believes his Everton team-mate John Stones will make a century for England.
Stones has had his critics in a Three Lions shirt and at Everton, where a disappointing season led to Roberto Martinez being sacked.
But Barkley hit back at Stones’ critics, insisting the defender will win more than 100 caps – and go on to captain his country.
Barkley said: “At a young age he’s a leader at club level so, yes, he can become a future England captain.
“He talks a lot and he leads by example.
“He’s not your typical English defender – he’s more of a ball-playing centre-half.
“He’ll probably play for England for the next 10 or 15 years and reach over 100 caps.”
