The Citizens Look to Bounce Back in Premier League, England Women Taking the Field
Guardiola States His Team of Being Timid in Leverkusen Loss
Pep Guardiola's side look to respond positively when they welcome the Yorkshire club later today after enduring two losses in a row against Newcastle United in the Premier League and Bayer Leverkusen in the Champions League.
It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. This served as a valuable lesson, even with my background in coaching it was a good lesson for me for the future.
Guardiola is expected to reinstate those he gave a break to against the German team when facing Daniel Farke’s side.
Farke's Team Look to Improve Performance at Manchester
The Yorkshire club aim to turn things around at the Etihad Stadium with Daniel Farke’s position in slight jeopardy. Leeds United are in the relegation zone of the Premier League, and after facing City, a important stretch awaits for the manager who, only last spring, earned promotion from the second tier.
To be frank, the current situation is tough; there's plenty of negativity. Yet I'm not avoiding this. I understood how dedicated this team is from the beginning. If you're not up for the pressure steer clear of managing Leeds. It wasn't my assumption this campaign to be an easy ride.
