Seat B: The recent rebound of the team can be attributed to the defense. As long as Stones is healthy, we can perform well.

In the last 9 games, Manchester City has 7 wins and 2 draws and remains unbeaten, with 6 clean sheets. Currently, Manchester City is only 3 points behind Arsenal in the Premier League standings and has entered the top 8 of the Champions League standings. Bernardo Silva talked about the reasons for the team's strong recovery in an interview, which he attributed to the significant improvement on the defensive end.

Seat B said: "We have regained some rhythm, especially the stability on the back line, which also gives the frontcourt players more freedom to play in different ways. I have always said that as long as the back line is stable and the team's overall defense is good - and this is what we have done recently, this is The key to winning games. We lost that consistency for a long time last season and now we are getting it back.

"Especially Stones, he brings something very valuable to us. This is my ninth season at Manchester City. When Stones is healthy, the team always performs better, which is not a coincidence. He's a special player who just needs to take care of his body and make sure he's available because he's so important to the team. "

In Manchester City's away game against Villa in 2021, Seat B scored a wonderful volley, but in the subsequent three visits to Villa Park, they only received two losses and one draw.

Talking about the weekend's away game against Villa in the Premier League, Seat B said: "We are satisfied with the current momentum, but there is still a long way to go. We've only been good in the last month and we need to keep it up for longer if we want to be successful this season. "
