PEP GUARDIOLA PREVIEW
Pep Guardiola says John Stones is not close to a return ahead of the home clash with Nottingham Forest on Wednesday.
“Not close no,” he said on the potential of a return for the six-time Premier League winner.
“Still he is injured. He has a problem with his feet.
“I don’t know but not for the next week.”
He then added that City’s fans will have a vital role to play at the Etihad, saying: “We need them.
“The situation is what it is and we need them - always they have been there.
“They know what the team has done in the last decade - many good moments we live together.
“They know that we absolutely need the support because all of us, especially the players, are human.
“Of course they are willing to give everything to change the dynamic.”

PREVIOUS MEETING
First-half strikes from Phil Foden and Erling Haaland saw 10-man City overcome Nottingham Forest 2-0 in our last encounter at the Etihad.
Pep Guardiola’s side made a flying start, racing into a two-goal lead inside 15 minutes thanks to Foden’s first goal of the season - after a stunning 46-pass move - and an eighth strike of the campaign from Haaland.
But the game then turned on its head two minutes after the restart when Rodri was shown a straight red card by referee Anthony Taylor for violent conduct, a decision upheld by VAR.
City had to dig deep for the remainder of the game but the Blues showed great character to pick up a valuable three points.
LAST TIME OUT
City went down 2-0 to Liverpool at Anfield, courtesy of goals in each half from Cody Kakpo and Mohamed Salah.
The result sees the Blues in fifth spot in the Premier League table heading into this latest encounter against Forest.
