If it's noisy when the pedal is pressed down it's usually the clutch bearing.
If it's noisy when the pedal is up, with the car out of gear, it's usually a gearbox bearing.

the two most common problems that will cause a noise is one the spigot bearing on the flywheel and two there is a loose bearing in the gearbox that is if the noise is in the gearbox when the car is not been driven
