    Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola believes a lack of pre-season training is the major reason his team has been decimated by injury

    Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola believes a lack of pre-season training is the major reason his team has been decimated by injury


    The four-time defending Premier League champs have slumped to seventh on the table ahead of the Boxing Day round overnight.

    Guardiola says Euro 2024 and the Copa America curtailing pre-season training has been a coach-killer.



    Because Man City host Everton in the early game on Boxing Day, they'll spend Christmas night at their training venue ahead of the clash.
