Pep Guardiola faced the media today, ahead of the Burnley v Manchester City clash on Wednesday.
Here’s what he said.
MANCHESTER CITY TEAM NEWS
Rodri (groin) looks set to miss the Burnley game on Wednesday but he doesn’t sound too seriously injured.
“I think for tomorrow, he will not be ready. Then we’ll see the next games, the semi-final against Southampton or the one in 12-13 days against Everton.” – Pep Guardiola on Rodri
Ruben Dias (hamstring) remains out, too, along with longer-term absentee Josko Gvardiol (leg).
“Not yet.” – Pep Guardiola on whether Ruben Dias is available
Guardiola didn’t really give many other team news hints for Wednesday but did highlight the quick turnaround.
An FA Cup semi-final against Southampton also awaits this weekend.
“The recovery is much less than the last two weeks. It’s just three days. That’s why you have to see how people recover, not just the demanding game that we had – emotionally and physically.” – Pep Guardiola
