The Citizens Look to Bounce Back in English Top Flight, Lionesses Taking the Field

City's Manager States Manchester City of Playing with Fear in Leverkusen Loss

Manchester City will hope to bounce back when they welcome Leeds later today after losing consecutive defeats against Newcastle in the English top flight and the German side in the European competition.

It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. This served as a valuable lesson, despite my managerial experience I'll carry this insight forward.

Pep is probably bringing back those he gave a break to against the German team when facing the visiting team.

Leeds Look to Improve Performance at City's Home Ground

The Yorkshire club hope to also find some form at the City's ground with the manager's job in slight jeopardy. The team are 18th in the table of the Premier League, and after this match, a important stretch approaches for the German who, only last spring, won promotion from the second tier.

To be frank, the current situation is tough; we face criticism. However, I won't shy away. I understood how passionate this club is from the first day. If you can’t handle the heat don’t become manager of Leeds United. I didn't anticipate this term to be an straightforward journey.
