"If we continue with the squad fit, we will compete in every single game and every single competition,"
"I don't have any doubts about that. Last season we were not able to compete in even one competition. Of course, during the process there are injuries. We know that. But we feel we can compete in every competition, be solid, or try. At least try, that's for sure."
"He made an incredible effort and he played with pain before the surgery but he could not continue,"
"Always you have niggles and have pain, that's normal. But not the limitations before he had the surgery and hopefully he can recover well."
Manchester City can challenge across all four competitions this season provided the squad avoids significant injuries. The club faces Premier League, Champions League and EFL Cup fixtures before Christmas and will enter the FA Cup in January. Squad depth is expected to allow strong teams to be fielded across competitions after struggles caused by last season's injury crisis. Rodri and Mateo Kovacic are unavailable for the upcoming trip to Newcastle. Kovacic previously had Achilles surgery and has since undergone ankle surgery, requiring further recovery. The team aims to remain solid and competitive in every match if fitness is maintained.
