Manchester City Aim to Return to Winning Ways in Top Division, Women's National Team in Action
City's Manager States City of Being Timid in Defeat to Leverkusen
The Sky Blues are aiming to respond positively when they host the Yorkshire club later today after enduring back-to-back matches against the Magpies in the Premier League and the German side in the European competition.
It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. I learned something important, as experienced as I am as a manager it was a good lesson for me for the future.
The Manchester City manager is expected to reinstate those he gave a break to against the Leverkusen when facing Daniel Farke’s side.
Leeds Hope to Improve Performance at City's Home Ground
The Yorkshire club hope to also find some form at the home of Manchester City with the manager's job in some doubt. The team are near the bottom of the English football, and after this match, a pivotal week approaches for the manager who, just months ago, 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 fervent this organization is from the outset. If you can’t handle the heat avoid this job. I didn't anticipate this season to be an easy ride.
