Everything said since their last game, v Ipswich on 17 Oct.
Marc Guéhi has played every minute of Man City's eight-day run against Liverpool, PSG and Ipswich, with recovery and sleep between games in place of training. "No, not strain. I'm grateful to be fit and healthy." He took the blame for the Ipswich goals: "that is down to me."
Mateo Kovačić and Matheus Nunes went off but told Enzo Maresca they were okay. The Man City manager will protect Ayyoub Bouaddi after his first Premier League start: "he's very young, he's coming from France... we need to help him not put him... under pressure every game"
Antoine Semenyo is the one Man City need to "wait a little bit" on, said Enzo Maresca. Asked if Erling Haaland, who appeared to limp off, has a knee injury, Maresca said: "I don't know. I asked him, he said that he was okay." Nico O'Reilly still has the back issue from Coventry.
Everything said since their last game, v Newcastle on 17 Oct.
Aaron Wan-Bissaka is expected to miss three or four weeks, Unai Emery said before Villa face Viking in the Champions League. Johan Manzambi misses Viking with a small injury. Matteo Ruggeri is out about two months, Amadou Onana "for a long time." Ian Maatsen is back in training.
"After our poor start, we have to try to keep balance in the table." Unai Emery says the Premier League is Villa's priority despite the Champions League win over Fenerbahçe. With Man City on 24 October and a Carabao Cup tie to come, he'll keep sharing minutes.
