Manchester City v Everton: Injury Update

Manager Manuel Pellegrini gave the following injury update:

"It was good to rest both (David Silva and Yaya Toure) of them as they're in the squad list for tomorrow - we'll see who will be in the XI but we have to play two games so close together so we'll see," Manuel declared.

"Silva is 100% fit - maybe it's a risk for him to play Wednesday to Saturday.

"Kompany, Mangala, Fernandinho, Nasri and Bony - those five players are injured and not fit for tomorrow's game.

"Mangala tried to work yesterday with normality but he couldn't. He had some pain still in his muscle - for him, it's best to wait a bit more. It's the same for Fernandinho and Bony. For Kompany and Nasri, it's longer.

"Vincent tried a lot of different things to try and find the cause of the injury so we have no update at this time."

So MCFC is unlikely to play a 4-4-2 in this match with Bony injured and the need for three points.
