Pep Guardiola could not hide his disappointment that Manchester City are without a number of key personnel during their pre-season tour of the United States.
The Spaniard is without five first-team players for the club's training camp in America, with Phil Foden, John Stones and Ilkay Gundogan failing to meet US entry requirements. The trio have instead linked up with City's Under-23s for a trip to Croatia.
Elsewhere, Oleksandr Zinchenko is not present as he prepares to complete his transfer to Arsenal and centre-back Aymeric Laporte has missed out through injury. While Guardiola admits the situation is out of his hands, the Sky Blues boss feels that not having a full group ahead of the new campaign is a massive blow.
