Perhaps my expectations exceed their self-belief. This served as a valuable lesson, despite my managerial experience this will inform my future approach.
Pep is probably bringing back those he gave a break to against the Leverkusen when facing Leeds United.

I’ll be honest, things aren't fun right now; we’re getting a lot of stick. But I don’t need to hide. I understood how dedicated this organization is from the outset. When the going gets tough don’t become manager of Leeds United. I never expected this season to be an simple task.
