Pep Guardiola's side are aiming to bounce back when they welcome Leeds later today after losing consecutive defeats against Newcastle in the Premier League and the German side in the UCL.
Perhaps my expectations exceed their self-belief. I learned something important, as experienced as I am as a manager I'll carry this insight forward.
Guardiola is expected to reinstate those he left out against the Leverkusen when facing Daniel Farke’s side.
Leeds are seeking to improve their results at the City's ground with the manager's job in some doubt. The team are in the relegation zone of the Premier League, and after facing City, a important stretch approaches for the German 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 knew about how passionate this organization is from the beginning. If you can’t handle the heat avoid this job. It wasn't my assumption this term to be an straightforward journey.
