Manchester City Seek to Return to Winning Ways in Premier League, England Women in Action
Pep Accuses His Team of Being Timid in European Setback
The Sky Blues will hope to bounce back when they host Leeds United later today after suffering back-to-back matches against the Magpies in the English top flight and the German side in the UCL.
It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. It was a good lesson for me, as experienced as I am as a manager this will inform my future approach.
The Manchester City manager is probably bringing back those he gave a break to against the Bundesliga side when facing Leeds United.
The Whites Hope to Regain Momentum at Etihad Stadium
Leeds hope to also find some form at the home of Manchester City with the manager's job in slight jeopardy. His side are in the relegation zone of the English football, and after this match, a pivotal week approaches for the German who, just months ago, celebrated promotion from the Championship.
Truthfully, it’s not very enjoyable at the moment; we face criticism. Yet I'm not avoiding this. I understood how dedicated this organization is from the outset. If you're not up for the pressure don’t become manager of Leeds United. It wasn't my assumption this season to be an straightforward journey.
