Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini has claimed that he should have a fully fit squad to select from after the international break.
The two-time Premier League champions have an injury list that includes Sergio Aguero, Fabian Delph, Pablo Zabaleta, Samir Nasri, Gael Clichy and David Silva.
Pellegrini has claimed that he expects everyone to be fit in around four weeks' time, but in the meantime, he will be without some of his star players for Saturday's game against Norwich City.
"Pablo has the same injury in his medial ligament - it's not so bad as the first one he had," Pellegrini said in today's press conference. "We soon have the international break so he should be fit after that - in 25 days he will be ready.
"David [Silva] is not in the squad list for the weekend as he still has some pain in his ankle. He's not available. We'll see if he's available for midweek. We have three more days and we'll decide then.
"Sergio is continuing his treatment. It's different to David as it's a muscle injury so he needs the amount of days he needs to be fit. Gael and Fabian should hopefully be okay next week. I hope after the international break we will have everyone fit."
City are currently at the top of the Premier League table, on level points with Arsenal.
