Manchester City defender Nedum Onuoha has sung the praises of centre-half pairing John Stones and Ruben Dias.
nohua believes they can scale the same heights as Manchester United greats Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic.
The 34-year-old told The Sun: “John Stones and Rio Ferdinand have some similarities, the fact they don't dive in, but Stones would get down and dirty more and also scored more goals.
"Rio didn't really get involved in goals, he was essentially a Rolls Royce, an incredible footballer.
"He was easy on the eye and read the game really well and wouldn't cover loads of distances because more often than not he was in the right spot.
“And I think Stones has that. But I think overall he is probably more aggressive and I think if he has to mix it with someone he'll happily do it. But that's where the difference stops."
