“No. He’s [John Stones] not ready to play. Maybe for the national team, but not us,” said Guardiola.
He did, however, have a positive update on Kevin De Bruyne, who has been ruled out through injury since mid August.
“Of course I see him [De Bruyne] every day and he’s getting better, and his mood is good. Hopefully (he will be back) sooner than expected he will be back.”
PREVIOUS MEETING
In our last trip to the Emirates in February this year, Kevin De Bruyne scored one and assisted another in a dramatic 3-1 Premier League victory, which saw City rise to the top of the table at the expense of the Gunners.
We also faced Mikel Arteta’s men in the FA Community Shield in August, with the London side emerging victorious on penalties.
