Pep is always vague with injury updates, hardly ever gives a time frame for players return.
It would be nice to let the supporters know.

I hope the Sergio thing is a combination of family time with Benjamin because continuing niggling knee pain after surgery is rarely just a niggle.
He seems to be where Mendy was after he had the same surgery.
Pep's been using the same language "feeling something in his knee" and not being able to train on random days because of it. Mendy got over it it after a couple of months, although he had other issues not related to the meniscus.
I'm sure he will be right by the business end of the season.
But why give the opposition an advantage by letting them know who is fit or not. Can you imagine if next week the rags announce that Rashford, Penendes, Tony M and Magliar are all injured. Pep then has time to plan a different strategy as opposed to one hour before when the team sheets are handed in. Never understood why managers confirm players who are injured well in advance of a game other than the serious injuries that everyone knows aboutPep is always vague with injury updates, hardly ever gives a time frame for players return.

Aguero trained with the squad today but is not available to play against Fulham.
Pep on Sergio: "Getting better. The good news is that he's on the pitch with us. We'll see (if he’ll be back soon)."
Sergio's injury is a concern. Last season he had a chance of being fit for the latter end of the champions league, now months later he's still unfit. We miss him as even though small he is more physically powerful than our other lightweight forwards and a natural goalscorer.

I predict he starts against the Rags. Scores and does a Messi like tribute to Maradona (Ref will naturally book him).Aguero trained with the squad today but is not available to play against Fulham.

As someone else has said injury could be a cover for being with his son after his grandfather passed away.
pep confirms aguero missing again this weekend
looking at the squad and the premier league table city really need a striker in jan. if pep wants the title and dare i say champions league then city are short in strikers. its simple and its not a moan but the team needs a top draw striker that can play all season ? aguero even his early days was missing loads of games because of injury. i don't think he has played a full season injury free since he's been here ? its makes his goal records even more stand out and even pep coming you thought his time would have been up because of the injuries and missing large chunks of games
if its the old knee injury and he is in pain then resting will never be the answer ? it will flair up every time he takes a knock or over stretch. maybe its time to say sorry we can not keep going on like this. the team needs somebody that can play every week and not in for one game out of 7 ?
but if its not a injury and the club is giving him time off to be with his son with him losing his grandad then i can under stand it and would like to think the club would have said so ?

this is key for me
last season when he picked up the injury it was touch and go to make the champions league knockouts ? i even think city put out a picture of aguero back in training a couple days before we played ? but since that aguero has been getting back into full fitness and the new season was looking great for him
questions have to be asked about the way the club send players to spain for treatment and recovery ? sane and his people refused to go to spain and they used the german doctors ?? maybe its daft but why do we use a Spanish doctor ? to treat our players ? don't we have the best complex in football at the etihad and top doctors working in england

Sergio Agüero continues to train with the #ManCity squad, but Pep Guardiola only wants to have the 'best version' [100% fitness] of the striker. [

I guess a specialist doctor like this is only needed occasionally so they would be twiddling their thumbs most of the time. If this is the same doctor we sent Mendy to I'm a bit concerned as he's never been the same since and Sergio is showing the same signs.

i understand the specialist are hard to come by and having a hospital on the grounds at the etihad would not be worth the money if its only being used by city and its players. but i think the premier league and the FA should be investing in specialist and building a hospital and then we could invite the best specialist to come over
but maybe its a weather thing more than the money ? its cold and wet most of the time in england
so maybe recovery is helped with warm weather and the sun on your back. plus the views of the manchester ship canal with shopping trolleys and traffic cones does not work hahaha
