Pep's Squad Look to Return to Winning Ways in Premier League, Lionesses Taking the Field
City's Manager States City of Being Timid in European Setback
Manchester City will hope to bounce back when they face Leeds United later today after losing consecutive defeats against the Magpies in the domestic league and Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League.
It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. It was a good lesson for me, even with my background in coaching it was a good lesson for me for the future.
The Manchester City manager is probably bringing back those he rested against the Leverkusen when facing Daniel Farke’s side.
The Whites Hope to Find Form at Manchester
The Yorkshire club aim to turn things around at the Etihad Stadium with the manager's job in some doubt. The team are in the relegation zone of the top division, and after this match, a crucial period approaches for the German who, only last spring, won promotion from the second tier.
To be frank, the current situation is tough; there's plenty of negativity. However, I won't shy away. I understood how passionate this club is from the first day. If you can’t handle the heat avoid this job. It wasn't my assumption this season to be an straightforward journey.
