Guardiola shakes up his Champions League deck
Pep Guardiola swapped out 10 players for Manchester City’s clash with Bayer Leverkusen, keeping only Nico Gonzalez from the side that lost to Newcastle. The boss joked he’d have made 11 changes if he could—football’s answer to changing every light bulb at once.
City, on 10 points from four group games, remain well-placed in Europe. With Real Madrid looming and Leeds up next, rotation was all about fresh legs and focus. Expect the Etihad to roar when the rested stars return this weekend.
