Manchester City Look to Return to Winning Ways in English Top Flight, Women's National Team Set to Play
Pep States City of Showing Apprehension in Defeat to Leverkusen
The Sky Blues are aiming to bounce back when they host the Yorkshire club later today after losing back-to-back matches against the Magpies in the English top flight and Bayer Leverkusen in the UCL.
Maybe I think higher of them than they think about themselves. It was a good lesson for me, despite my managerial experience this will inform my future approach.
The Manchester City manager is probably bringing back those he gave a break to against the Leverkusen when facing Leeds United.
Farke's Team Hope to Regain Momentum at Manchester
The Yorkshire club hope to also find some form at the Etihad Stadium with Daniel Farke’s position in some doubt. His side are in the relegation zone of the top division, and after facing City, a important stretch approaches for the manager who, recently, earned promotion from the second tier.
I’ll be honest, it’s not very enjoyable at the moment; we’re getting a lot of stick. However, I won't shy away. I knew about how fervent this team is from the outset. If you can’t handle the heat steer clear of managing Leeds. I never expected this term to be an easy ride.
