For nearly a decade, Manchester City have consistently battled for the top spots in the Premier League and Champions League, often paying little attention to tournaments like the FA Cup. But this season has shifted that reality somewhat.
Details: Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola has acknowledged that the FA Cup is a secondary competition for his team, but this season it represents their only chance to lift silverware.
Quote: "That's the problem right now—the FA Cup isn't our top priority. Of course, we want to win it. When we're here, naturally, we want to claim the trophy. It's very important.
Last season we were disappointed (after losing the final to Manchester United). But I'm confident we'll perform well and fight against them. It's the FA Cup final—it's an honor and a privilege. It's our third consecutive appearance, so we have to deliver. We're heading to London to win the title," Guardiola said.
Reminder: Earlier, Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta named his pick for next season's Premier League title contender.
