Pep Guardiola sarcastically suggested that Sergio Aguero dived after a crunching tackle from Ashley Young during the Manchester derby at the weekend, when asked about the Argentine's fitness.
Man City face the mammoth task of overturning a 3-0 first-leg deficit when they face Liverpool in the Champions League on Tuesday and a fit Aguero would provide a much-needed boost to their hopes.
Guardiola, however, offered little in the way of an update when asked if the striker would be fit after his clash with Young.
“He (Aguero) was diving,” the boss quipped at the pre-match press conference.
