Fans on Twitter react to Chelsea’s pursuit of Everton defender
Everton supporters on Twitter have been reacting angrily to Jose Mourinho and Gary Cahill publicly discussing Chelsea’s bid for defender John Stones.
Blues defender Cahill told reporters on the trip to America that Stones would find it hard to turn down a move to Stamford Bridge, and manager Mourinho implied Everton were ‘a smaller club’ while talking about the proposed deal.
Toffees fans have been quick to criticise both Cahill and Mourinho for what they see is attempts to unsettle Stones.
What is Gary Cahill playing at?! It’s like they have signed stones! Serious lack of class #efc

New comments from Gary Cahill on Stones. Very public tapping up of a player contracted to #EFC. All the money in the world, but no class — Patrick Boyland (@Paddy_Boyland) July 22, 2015
Chelsea getting Cahill to talk about Stones is a disgrace.

Mourinho keeps digging doesn’t he where Stones is concerned. “smaller other clubs?” Kinda like Chelsea before they hit the lottery Jose? — TX Bill (@GOT_TXBill) July 22, 2015

Meanwhile, some Chelsea fans have been questioning why the club is so keen to land Stones when youngsters like Andreas Christensen and Tomas Kalas have been loaned out.
Give Andreas Christensen 40 PL games at Everton and Chelsea would probably pay £30m for him as well. Start trusting your own. — Chelsea Youth (@chelseayouth) July 22, 2015
So another mammoth bid for John stones is imminent by #cfc. So we don’t want to give Kalas or Christensen a chance then?

Why would you pay +£20m for John Stones when you have Christensen loaned out and Zouma budding? — OVERLORD ® (@thatotistic) July 18, 2015
If a Christensen gets PL games he will be just as good as stones, if not better. We have to start trusting our young lads.

John Stones is a good defender but signing him for £30m is too much. Especially when we have Thomas Kalas, whom we loaned out. — ™Xperience (@Xperience_Snr) July 20, 2015

Garry is admitting his willingness to work with Stones when they took lukaku on loan later signed him we had the same comment from their player wer they tapping or tripping?class is permanent performance is temporary…we like our haters they make us great…arsenal started commenting about Chech even before they signed him did we complain but we saw the press bashing on our coach calling him hypocritical.i believe teams fear our resolve to achieve and our ambition to offer the best

I think Chelsea has good and bright talents like kalas why sending them one loan,make use of what u have
23/07/2015 @ 1:02 pm
I stead of worring about john stones why not look at the right back possition
No back up for ivanovage only about left back.we need a very good centre half to cover for john terry.also we need another ball passer can not rely on fabrigas all the time.
Moses and mikel not good enough for chelsea. sorry no titles on cups this year
as defence will be not good enough.

I think it’s right for the try and to talk to stones to join Chelsea because the future is in stones hands
