John Stones is only 28 but he has enjoyed quite the career. Since making his Premier League debut at Everton in 2013 and then moving to Manchester City three years later, the centre-back has won almost all there is to win and has appeared in finals of the Champions League and European Championship, while he's also made an appearance in a World Cup semi-final.
Along the way he has played with and against some of the best players to ever play the game. But for England international there is one opponent who ranks above the rest, and that's Lionel Messi.
Stones named the seven-time Ballon d'Or winner as his toughest opponent, even if the Argentine wasn't at his best when he faced him in the Champions League in 2016.
