Manchester City Look to Return to Winning Ways in Premier League, England Women Taking the Field
Pep States Manchester City of Being Timid in Defeat to Leverkusen
Pep Guardiola's side are aiming to regroup when they host Leeds United later today after suffering two losses in a row against Newcastle United in the English top flight and Leverkusen in the Champions League.
Perhaps my expectations exceed their self-belief. It was a good lesson for me, even with my background in coaching I'll carry this insight forward.
Pep is likely to recall those he left out against the Leverkusen when facing the visiting team.
Leeds Aim to Improve Performance at Etihad Stadium
The Yorkshire club hope to also find some form at the City's ground with Daniel Farke’s position in some doubt. Leeds United are 18th in the table of the Premier League, and after Manchester City, a pivotal week awaits for the manager who, only last spring, celebrated promotion from the second tier.
To be frank, it’s not very enjoyable at the moment; there's plenty of negativity. Yet I'm not avoiding this. I knew about how dedicated this organization is from the first day. If you can’t handle the heat steer clear of managing Leeds. It wasn't my assumption this campaign to be an straightforward journey.
