He stressed that the team must quickly adapt to the reality of losing more often than they did during their successful promotion campaign last season.
“You know the high, high talent level that they have. It will be a big challenge for us, but also a good challenge for us to go and see what we can do there. We’ve worked on all the threats of Manchester City, and we’ve worked on where we feel we can give them problems when at our best.”
