Manchester City Aim to Bounce Back in Top Division, Lionesses Taking the Field
Pep Accuses His Team of Being Timid in Leverkusen Loss
Pep Guardiola's side will hope to respond positively when they host Leeds United later today after enduring consecutive defeats against Newcastle in the English top flight and Leverkusen in the European competition.
Maybe I think higher of them than they think about themselves. It was a good lesson for me, as experienced as I am as a manager it was a good lesson for me for the future.
Pep is expected to reinstate those he gave a break to against the Bundesliga side when facing Daniel Farke’s side.
Farke's Team Hope to Improve Performance at City's Home Ground
Daniel Farke's squad hope to also find some form at the home of Manchester City with Farke's role in slight jeopardy. Leeds United are near the bottom of the English football, and after facing City, a important stretch awaits for the German who, just months ago, won promotion from the Championship.
Truthfully, it’s not very enjoyable at the moment; we’re getting a lot of stick. Yet I'm not avoiding this. I knew about how dedicated this organization is from the beginning. When the going gets tough don’t become manager of Leeds United. I didn't anticipate this season to be an simple task.
