Every word from Pep Guardiola on Man City vs Nottingham Forest team news and transfer updates

Pep Guardiola could offer an injury update on three Manchester City players ahead of the Premier League visit of Nottingham Forest on Wednesday.

City were without Nathan Ake, Kalvin Phillips and Jack Grealish for the comeback win over Crystal Palace on Saturday, with Aymeric Laporte also a longer-term injury concern. Guardiola may provide fresh updates on the trio, who would all hope to face newly-promoted Forest if they were fit.

Guardiola may also offer an insight into his rotation plans against Forest, with the return of midweek games and the Champions League beginning next week.

Also among potential talking points is the news today that Bournemouth manager Scott Parker has been sacked after they lost 9-0 vs Liverpool, having previously been beaten 4-0 at City.
