Aug 27 (Reuters) - Midfielder Bernardo Silva is confident Manchester City will adapt in the absence of manager Pep Guardiola, who will miss the treble winner's Premier League clashes against Sheffield United and Fulham after undergoing back surgery.
Guardiola, 52, is recovering from the surgery in Barcelona, and assistant coach Juanma Lillo will replace the Spaniard on the touchline.
But we know perfectly well what he wants from us and what the rest of the staff want from us.
Champions City are fifth in the standings with six points from two games.
They travel to promoted Sheffield United on Saturday before hosting Marco Silva's Fulham on Sept. 2.
