Manchester City is preparing for a crucial game against Arsenal this weekend, with Pep Guardiola hoping for a statement win to keep their title hopes alive. However, the team is facing injury doubts ahead of the game, with John Stones reportedly feeling he will not be fit to play. Stones, who has had a frustrating season with injuries, went off with an injury while playing for England and is undergoing scans to assess his fitness for the upcoming match.
Stones, who has impressed when he has played this season, is a key player for Guardiola and his absence would be a big blow for the team. With the title race being extremely tight, City may need to be perfect in their performances to claim a fourth straight title. Stones’ potential absence against Arsenal could impact the team’s chances in the important game, as he has been instrumental in playing in advanced midfield positions for City.
Despite undergoing scans in Manchester, it seems unlikely that Stones will be fit to play against Arsenal on Sunday. Along with Stones, fellow teammate Kyle Walker is also facing doubts for the game, with a 50% chance of being fit. Guardiola will have to make adjustments to the team if Stones is unable to play, as they aim to secure a crucial victory in their pursuit of the title.
