It appears Manchester City forward Oscar Bobb is injured again. What a bummer for the young man. Bobb got hurt in the 2-0 EFL Cup quarterfinal win over Brentford last night.

“After 10-15 minutes, he complained about a muscular injury,” City manager Pep Guardiola said yesterday.

Pep continued: “Apparently, it’s a muscular injury in the hamstring. Hopefully, he will come back soon.”

So we’ll just have to see about Bobb. Meanwhile Rodri, well, who knows about Rodri, his timeline always gets pushed back. Elsewhere Jeremy Doku is out until January 2. We covered that in more detail at this link.

Finally, Rayan Ait-Nouri (Algeria) and Omar Marmoush (Egypt) have departed for the Africa Cup of Nations.

The only other major piece of Hammers team news is about Niclas Fullkrug. It appears that he’ll be likely returning this weekend.

“No major issues,” Irons boss Nuno Espirito Santo said.
