Pep's Squad Seek to Bounce Back in English Top Flight, England Women Taking the Field
City's Manager States City of Showing Apprehension in Defeat to Leverkusen

To be frank, the current situation is tough; we face criticism. But I don’t need to hide. I was aware of how passionate this club is from the first day. If you can’t handle the heat steer clear of managing Leeds. I didn't anticipate this season to be an easy ride.
