Manchester City defender John Stones attributes a portion of the team’s good defensive form this season to the arrival of Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson. Ederson joined the club from Benfica this summer.

City have conceded only two goals so far this season and the England centre half thinks the arrival of Ederson has made a big difference. “It’s credit to him, It’s not easy coming from another country.

“I wouldn’t know that but from speaking to the boys in the past who have come over to the Premier League, it’s a different culture, different language, and he’s settled quickly.

“He’s speaking to us on the pitch – he’s a vocal presence and a presence as a person, which is credit to him. It’s a massive bonus for us we beat Shakhtar and get a clean sheet again.

“We need to keep carrying that on, getting clean sheets. It gives us a good platform to go on and go and score at the other end.”
