Takes two shots in season finale Stones took two shots (one on target) and created a chance in Sunday's 3-2 victory against Aston Villa. He also made four clearances and an interception in the match.
Impact Stones lined up at right back at the start of Sunday's game, but he slid back to central defense for the second half. It was his first appearance since April after recovering from a muscular injury. He scored a goal and kept six clean sheets in 14 Premier League appearances (12 starts) this season, and he also kept three clean sheets in eight Champions League games. In terms of minutes played, the 27-year-old is City's third choice at center back behind Ruben Diaz and Aymeric Laporte, but the margins are very thin and manager Pep Guardiola still has a lot of trust in the England international.

Will play Sunday Stones (strain) was named to the starting XI for Sunday's matchup with Aston Villa.
Impact Stones returns to the squad having missed the club's previous five contests due to his muscular injury. Even when playing in a wide role, Stones doesn't offer much in terms of offensive pressure and shouldn't be expected to offer more than low-end fantasy value.

Training ahead of finale Stones (muscular) was pictured in training Thursday ahead of Sunday's finale against Aston Villa.
Impact Stones has been out the last three weeks with a muscular injury and similar to Kyle Walker, may try to push through the issue in order to start Sunday. It's definitely a worry if Stones isn't 100 percent, but Pep Guardiola should have an update on the center-back ahead of Sunday. If ready, he'd likely take the spot of Fernandinho in the XI.

Won't return this season Stones will miss the rest of the season with his muscular injury, according to manager Pep Guaridola.
Impact This was expected to be the case for Stones when he left early in the win against Leeds a week ago. He opened the season lacking fitness and now closes it with an injury, so it hasn't been the best year. He ends with 11 league and eight UCL starts, compiling 11 clean sheets across the competitions.

Not fit for second leg Stones (strain) will miss Wednesday's match against Real Madrid, according to manager Pep Guardiola.
Impact This could easily be a multi-week absence for Stones after leaving last week's match with a tweak of his muscle. Man City rarely give full updates on injuries, but it looked like a possible hamstring injury when Stones went off against Real Madrid in the first leg and it's something that could see him miss the rest of the season.

Out against Leeds Stones (strain) will miss Saturday's match against Leeds and is a doubt for next week's trip to Real Madrid, according to manager Pep Guardiola.
Impact Stones re-injured his muscle issue midweek and seems like a doubt to return to the squad for the next couple matches unless it's truly a minor tweak. He's gotten a decent amount of run in the second half of the season, but with a healthy Ruben Dias available, Stones isn't needed to start every match anymore.

Comes off early in UCL Stones (strain) was subbed off in the 36th minute of Tuesday's Champions League semi-final first leg against Real Madrid with a likely recurrence of his injury.
Impact Stones was an injury question heading into Tuesday's game and he lasted just over 30 minutes at right-back up against Vinicius Junior and Real Madrid. He probably wasn't ready to start and Pep Guardiola was forced to turn to veteran Fernandinho in his place on the right side.

Starting against Real Madrid Stones (strain) is in the starting XI for Tuesday's match against Real Madrid.
Impact Stones appears to be healthy enough to start and he's the preferred option over Nathan Ake, who is on the bench. Stones has a few starts at right-back this season, though he's compiled just one cross in those situations which came home against Brentford. Expect him to sit back plenty with Vinicius Junior to deal with on the wing.
