What John Stones told Pep Guardiola about playing right back for Man City vs Real Madrid

Stones limped off against Brighton last week and didn't face Watford at the weekend. He had not been seen in training since that Brighton win, and was absent when City's Monday training session was open to members of the media, plus photographers and camera operators, for the first 15 minutes.
