Pep Guardiola confirmed the news that Aymeric Laporte will be missing for up to six months for Manchester City, but otherwise posted a positive injury bulletin with the news that Gabriel Jesus, John Stones and Ilkay Gündogan are available for selection. Any hopes Norwich had of staunching the flow of City’s all-star attack already look fanciful after Daniel Farke – whose team have conceded 10 goals in four games – said he has 11 injured first-team players, including all four of his registered centre-halves.
