“Not Ready Yet, But Feels Better” – Guardiola on Ruben Dias’ Recovery Ahead of FA Cup
Ahead of Manchester City’s FA Cup match against Salford City on Saturday, January 11, manager Pep Guardiola has shared some positive updates regarding the club’s injury list.
City has faced a number of injury setbacks, with several key players spending time off the pitch.
However, Guardiola expressed relief that the situation is improving.
Speaking at a press conference, he confirmed that while some players are still recovering, the team is slowly regaining strength.
One of the players in focus is Ruben Dias, who has been sidelined for some time.
Guardiola revealed that although Dias is feeling better, he won’t be ready to feature against Salford.
“Not yet. He feels better but not ready. I don’t know when,” the manager said.
In better news, Guardiola spoke about young player Oscar Bobb, who has recently recovered from a fracture.
Bobb is now back in training with the team, which is a major boost.
“He is training with the team partially. That’s good news for us. It was a fractured bone.
Now that it’s healed, he’s fine, but good news is he’s back,” Guardiola added.
Coventry City manager, Frank Lampard, speaks on team player and states how the player’s stance will help the team get into the Premier League.
The player is revealed to be Onyeka who he spoke about in the recent interview.
“He brings a different quality and probably a different profile to the midfield players we have.
“As I say, the profile is slightly different and I think that helps us in terms of the options and the competition in the middle of the park for us.”
Arsenal coach, Mikel Arteta, after their last match, shares an update on the injured team members after their last match.
He shared an update on Saka and stated that he is doing better after going through a hip injury. “His hip is improving a lot. Hopefully, he’ll be ready soon.”
He added about the other team members: “Martin is getting better and will be back in a few days, and Jurrien is fit for the weekend.”
Super Eagles footballer, Alex Iwobi, speaks on the World Cup and reveals their hope to play in the 2026 World Cup.
He shared that the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) is hopeful about hearing from them after they submitted a petition against the Democratic Republic of Congo.
“I mean we’re still waiting, well hopefully we can go to the World Cup, but I feel it’s a tough one.
“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
