There were three things. Firstly, I saw him so tired. The second one he had a bit of a fever, like Joao Cancelo.
The third, he had a knock on his foot. That's why he wasn’t able to play in the second-half.
When asked if both stars would be fit for the weekend he revealed:
I don’t know right now. They [City's medical staff] were a little bit concerned at half-time, but I saw him walking okay at the end, so we'll have to see.
