As with fellow legendary figure Bernado Silva, tributes to John Stones have been pouring in since the defender followed his team-mate in announcing he will leave Manchester City at the end of the season.
The 31-year-old has made 293 appearances since joining from Everton for ÂŁ47.5m in 2016, helping City win six Premier League titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, five League Cups, three Community Shields, the Club World Cup and the Uefa Super Cup.
Speaking to BBC Radio Manchester, City fan Scott said: "I can't cope at the moment. All the players I've really liked over the last few years are leaving. He was the second signing under Pep Guardiola after Ilkay Gundogan, he was 20 and everyone thought he would be on the bench. He has shown his versatility and been a fantastic player for the club.
"His conversion into midfield has shown that and he has played his part in every season where we have won things. Specifically, the Champions League final when we won the treble, he had a magnificent game. He's been a great signing for the club."
Fellow City supporter Nigel added: "Having watched the guy, and especially the treble season, he can almost play the game with his eyes closed when he is fit. He is that good.
"He is one of those people who comes out of the womb and can just play football from birth. That's the calibre of John Stones.
"The way he bounced back after his first few years at City, that's what I admire. The way he fought back and established himself as a top footballer is testament to the lad's determination and dedication to making it."
John Stones announced he will leave Manchester City at the end of the season, following the departure of Bernardo Silva.
John Stones has won six Premier League titles, the Champions League, two FA Cups, five League Cups, three Community Shields, the Club World Cup, and the UEFA Super Cup with Manchester City.
John Stones joined Manchester City from Everton for a transfer fee of ÂŁ47.5 million in 2016.
