Injury Updates

City don't usually allow the cameras into the training ground, unless it's before a European game. Looks like they wanted to get this news out. Or am I reading too much into it?

They are training with the group and not on their own so hopefully it means they are in contention. Is Pep’s press conference tomorrow?

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

To tell you the truth the thought of either of them being in the starting eleven is enough to settle the nerves. Ake can play either on the left or in the centre, all of sudden we look like a team difficult to score against again.

Yup Walker the main one for me

Even Walker-Ake-Laporte-Cancelo would be fine with Stones on the bench.

Fingers crossed!

Is that our back 4 for Sunday there

I bet sky are best pleased!

 

[BringBackSwales]

That is exactly how I wander around the house when I am not at a match. "Come on City, please, please, please, please, Come on City please, please, please" ad infinitum!!

I bet you’d be pleased pleased pleased if John Stones is back on Sunday?

 

[Brewster's millions]

Presumably both are actually fit if they are training with the group rather than individually.

Should both play barring any reaction / setbacks.

And Ake pulls up in that clip, typical lol

Don't think he does. He clips the ball behind him rather than to a player so I think it is just a reaction to that.

I had a feeling Pep was playing us when he said they were out for the season. Hopefully they've had a bit extra to recover than they did for the Real Madrid games. Shame Dias isn't available too! Gives us better options. Watkins is very quick in behind and Ings is also pretty sharp. Walker would make a huge difference. Would be happy with Walker, Laporte, Ake, Cancelo. Gives us pace both sides of defence then.

I would only play one and that one would be Walker. We don't want to risk 2 subs due to injury if we are needing a goal.

I'd prefer Stones personally, we need to be stronger in the middle of defence.

I was half joking as I doubt it's serious but he winces and limps off
