Guardiola confirms Dias blow after losing Gvardiol to leg fracture

Manchester City’s title defence has been plunged into chaos following a devastating triple injury blow that leaves Pep Guardiola with a threadbare defence. The City boss has confirmed that Ruben Dias will miss up to six weeks with a hamstring injury, while Josko Gvardiol is facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines after suffering a leg fracture. To compound matters, Guardiola admitted he has "no idea" when John Stones will return.

The Croatian defender had to be helped off the pitch in the second half, in the same game as chief centre-back partner Ruben Dias was also unable to continue, while John Stones is still sidelined.
