Man City boss Guardiola: I feel sorry for Stones

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola admits they'll miss John Stones.

Stones broke down during their Champions League win against Young Boys last season, with Guardiola later confirming a "muscular injury".

Guardiola said, "I feel so sorry for him.

"He is so important for what he does."

Asked if he expects Stones to be kept out for a while, City's Spanish boss added: "I think so. [It is a] muscular injury, it will be a while. It is a pity, it is bad news for us. I don't know how long."
