Manchester City are aiming to respond positively when they face Leeds later today after suffering back-to-back matches against the Magpies in the domestic league and the German side in the European competition.
Perhaps my expectations exceed their self-belief. 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 probably bringing back those he rested against the Leverkusen when facing Leeds United.
Leeds hope to also find some form at the City's ground with Daniel Farke’s position in slight jeopardy. The team are near the bottom of the Premier League, and after this match, a crucial period looms for the manager who, recently, celebrated promotion from the Championship.
I’ll be honest, things aren't fun right now; we’re getting a lot of stick. Yet I'm not avoiding this. I understood how fervent this team is from the beginning. If you're not up for the pressure don’t become manager of Leeds United. I never expected this campaign to be an easy ride.
