Pep's Squad Aim to Bounce Back in Premier League, England Women Set to Play

Pep Guardiola's side will hope to bounce back when they host Leeds later today after suffering back-to-back matches against Newcastle in the domestic league and Leverkusen in the Champions League.

It's possible I rate them more highly than they do themselves. It was a good lesson for me, despite my managerial experience this will inform my future approach.

Pep is probably bringing back those he left out against the Bundesliga side when facing Leeds United.

Daniel Farke's squad are seeking to improve their results at the Etihad Stadium with the manager's job in slight jeopardy. His side are 18th in the table of the top division, and after facing City, a pivotal week approaches for the manager who, only last spring, won promotion from the second tier.

To be frank, it’s not very enjoyable at the moment; there's plenty of negativity. However, I won't shy away. I understood how fervent this organization is from the first day. If you're not up for the pressure don’t become manager of Leeds United. It wasn't my assumption this season to be an simple task.

The English top division: The thirteenth round ... the season is moving fast! Is a title resurgence possible for City? Could it be a tough period for Edwards? Could Estêvão feature from the beginning?
