Erik ten Hag: “They want to win a Cup and they have an opportunity”

United boss Erik ten Hag spoke ahead of today's final. 

“Yes I know (what the treble means to United fans). I know what is the thinking from the fans. 

“But what we want is to restore Manchester United by winning trophies so on Saturday we have an opportunity to win a trophy and we don’t want to be distracted by anything. If it is important for the fans it is important for us so we will give everything to win the Cup.

“It (being motivated by stopping City from winning the treble) is not necessary. It will not give more motivation for the team because for their motivation is already enough – it can’t be more. 

“They want to win a Cup and they have an opportunity.”

Treble-winning sides

This City team have already been compared to the United team of 1999. That United team won the treble under legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

City are, of course, on course to win a treble this season, but defeat today would end those hopes. 

Guardiola's men recently lifted their third consecutive Premier League title and they face Erik ten Hag's side today and Inter in the Champions League final next Saturday. 

It surely is the business end of the season.

Manchester sides meet again

Today is indeed the first time City and United have met in the FA Cup in 12 years. 

Last time out, City won 1-0 in the semi-final in 2011.

Who will start for City?

Manchester City duo Jack Grealish and Kevin De Bruyne are fit for today's FA Cup final, according to the words of City boss Pep Guardiola.

Grealish and De Bruyne missed City’s final two Premier League games, with the Catalan tactician admitting several players were carrying “niggles”.

Defenders Manuel Akanji and Ruben Dias also missed 1-0 defeat to Brentford on the final day of the season.

Asked about De Bruyne and Grealish ahead of the final, Guardiola said: "They trained well in the last two training sessions".

We'll have the City XI for you very soon.
