While Guardiola undoubtedly boasts the kind of squad managers around the world would envy, the former Atletico Madrid star is one of his most important players.

City lost the three Premier League games the 28-year-old missed last season, while the player himself is on an unbeaten run spanning 52 League fixtures.

Still, Guardiola has vowed to find a solution following the blow and highlighted the likes of John Stones, Mateo Kovacic and Ilkay Gundogan as potential in-house alternatives.
