Pep Guardiola gives Phil Foden injury update after Man City star misses Nottingham Forest game
28.04.2024 - 16:43 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
In-form Manchester City star Phil Foden was omitted from their matchday squad against Nottingham Forest after picking up an illness. Foden has been a shining light for the reigning Premier League champions this season with 16 goals and seven assists from 31 games in the competition.
Foden has scored five goals in his last two outings. However, the Stockport-born forward was unavailable for City on Sunday afternoon, despite initially heading to the Midlands for that City Ground showdown.
Explaining his absence, City manager Pep Guardiola told Sky Sports: "He's not ready. He's ill.

"He didn't feel good, discomfort today and he's back to Manchester. It is what it is. It's a long season - they always happen these kind of things - and another one is going to play."
With all eyes on selection, Guardiola opted for Jeremy Doku, Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish to support Julian Alvarez in attacking quarters at the City Ground on Sunday afternoon. Erling Haaland was deemed fit enough only for a spot on the substitutes bench after recovering from an injury setback.
City headed into the game on the back of watching title rivals Arsenal pick up three points earlier on. Arsenal won 3-2 against north London neighbours Tottenham in a high-octane 90 minutes between the sides.
Before getting down to business, City were four points behind The Gunners - having played two games less - with the title race expected to go down to the wire. Foden started and scored twice for City in their last match away to Brighton on Thursday night, but was ruled out shortly before kick-off for the Forest trip.

Ex-Man City ace Joao Cancelo takes another swipe at club with ‘salty’ Josko Gvardiol jibe
Joao Cancelo has stirred controversy with his latest social media activity which took aim at parent club Manchester City. The Portuguese right-back, currently on loan at Barcelona from City, participated in a blind-ranking challenge – a popular trend where participants rank randomly appearing players from one to 10 without knowing who will appear next. In an unexpected twist, the first player to be revealed was Josko Gvardiol, who effectively was Cancelo's replacement at City. Rather than offering any pleasantries, Cancelo immediately ranked the Croatian at the bottom of his list.

Noel Gallagher defends not doing Poznan at Man City game after Liam calls out “poor behaviour”
Noel Gallagher has defended not joining in with the Poznan at Manchester City’s match against Fulham last weekend, after his brother Liam called it “poor behaviour”.The former Oasis member attended last Saturday’s away game (May 11), which saw his beloved football team clinch a 4-0 win and move closer to the top of the Premier League table.But unlike the huge sea of Man City fans surrounding him, Gallagher refused to join in with the Poznan (where fans link arms, turn away from the pitch and begin bouncing).Images and videos of the moment subsequently went viral, with some people suggesting that the unimpressed-looking Gallagher could have been shooting the cover art for his next album.The High Flying Birds frontman’s estranged brother and former bandmate Liam also called out his “poor behaviour” in a post on X/Twitter.Noel has since spoken out about being spotted at the game during an interview with talkSport.
