We're back underway at the City Ground!

Nottingham Forest are unbeaten in each of their previous four home Premier League games in which they've been level at half time since a 1-0 loss to Fulham in September (W3 D1).

So that bodes well heading into the second half.

"I think the bit now is can you go further, what you're going to do next, how can we keep it going, and I'm just talking about little bits of progress every week.

"We're certainly not turning water into wine, but if we can keep moving slightly along the road and feeling we're a bit better, I think that's the right way to go."

Kobbie Mainoo is at a standstill with Manchester United over a new contract, talkSPORT understands.

Mainoo is keen to stay at Old Trafford, with his current deal expiring in 2027, but he wants a salary that recognises his value to the team, in the region of £150,000-a-week.

United know if they sell the midfielder this summer it would help with PSR concerns as he is an academy graduate.

Therefore any fee received would represent 100 per cent profit.

The 19-year-old made 18 Premier League appearances this season until he picked up a long-term injury.

He's expected to return to action next month.

Man City boss Pep Guardiola has made an honest admission about potentially missing out on Champions League football.

I’m delighted and comforted that he will remain with us in a vitally important role as we use the new Everton Stadium as a launchpad for regeneration of the local area.

"Kevin has been integral in ensuring Premier League survival in this difficult period.  By resolving PSR issues through significant player trading we believe we have an extraordinary squad that can be the foundation for future success.  This future success will also be supported by our talented sporting department assembled by Kevin.  We are pleased Kevin will remain with us in this interim period."

Ruben Amorim has provided a Manchester United injury update ahead of their game against Arsenal.

The Red Devils head coach has indicated that Manuel Ugarte should be fit and that Mason Mount is also close.

However, Lisandro Martinez and Amad Diallo remain out as long-term absentees, though is hope the latter could return before the end of the season.

Speaking after Man United's 1-1 draw with Real Sociedad, he said: "Manu will return.

"I think Luke Shaw and Mason Mount can return, we'll see.

"They definitely are going to return, especially Mason Mount."

Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim cannot see how he'll be given the same time as Mikel Arteta to get things right at Old Trafford.

Speaking after Man United's 1-1 draw in the Europa League round of 16 against Real Socieded, the former Sporting Lisbon boss previewed the game against Arsenal at the weekend.

And one of the questions he was asked was about Arteta's longevity, given the Spaniard arrived at the Emirates in 2019.

But Amorim believes he must deliver success or he won't get the same time.

He said: "I will not have the time that Arteta have.

"It's a different club, so we just need to survive during these games.

"I think it's a different club.

The way Arteta dealt with that is an inspiration, but I will not have the time."

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola was asked about Jack Grealish during his pre-match press conference, but he refused to comment on it.

The England international was spotted in the North Biddick Club in Washington, Tyne & Wear last weekend on his day off.

Later that night, he was seen leaving The Dubliner pub in Newcastle looking a bit unsteady before being escorted into a people carrier.

Grealish is allowed to do what he wants during his time off, and there are reports from people who were with him, that he put a large amount of money behind the bar.

However, there are some who feel it's unprofessional for Grealish to be seen like that.

But there are any concerns from Guardiola, he refused to reveal them publicly.

When asked, he said: "He's so famous and people follow him.

"Nothing to comment."
