"[Stones is not] ready for the next games. Of course, he's an important player for us for a long time and he was injured for a long time last season; this season looks the same. "Omar [Marmoush] and Rayan [Ait-Nouri] are at AFCON, and we have injuries to John and Oscar Bobb, while Jeremy [Doku] and Rodri have come back from long injuries. "That is the situation. Of course [we can cope]. With the spirit we have."
"[Ruben has injured his] hamstring [and will be out for] between four and six weeks. [Josko] is out for a long time."
Ruben Dias will be sidelined for four to six weeks with a hamstring injury. Josko Gvardiol will undergo surgery for a fractured tibia and faces a long-term absence. John Stones is not ready for the upcoming matches after recent injury problems. Omar Marmoush and Rayan Ait-Nouri are representing their countries at the Africa Cup of Nations. Jeremy Doku and Rodri have only recently returned from extended injuries. Squad selection must be managed carefully amid these absences. Manchester City express confidence in the players' spirit and ability to cope while chasing league leaders Arsenal. Brighton visit the Etihad with James Milner potentially appearing aged 40+.
