City make four changes for FA Cup quarter-final against Southampton (Manchester City FC)

Pep Guardiola has made four changes to his starting lineup for this afternoon's FA Cup quarter-final at Southampton.

And we know we will need to be on top form to progress to the last four. Rodrigo will sit just in front of the back four to add a layer of disciplined protection. They are a well-organised side with a manager who demands energy and industry as standard. And Kevin De Bruyne is one of the most gifted midfielders in the game. John Stones and Aymeric Laporte continue together at the heart of the defence. Zack Steffen once again starts a domestic cup fixture.

He allows himself to think further into the future only because he was asked the question, but his focus is still on the game that comes next. I think Fabinho will anchor the midfield alongside Curtis Jones and Naby Keita. It’s a fantastic opportunity, that’s absolutely true — the only problem we have is Nottingham Forest and another team we could theoretically face in the semi-final who want to do the same. “It is nice to play the semi-final at Wembley, absolutely nice, but actually the real deal is then a few weeks later. He’s already confirmed Alisson Becker will start in goal, which could give hints to what else we’ll look like further up the pitch. With every press conference that passes, his steeliness in the face of the growing pressure that surrounds the team’s title charge best sums up why there is such a laser-like focus around the club.

Notts Forest v Liverpool FA Cup tie offers reminder of another time in ... (Irish Examiner)

The institution of the FA Cup is widely devalued but Sunday's Nottingham Forest v Liverpool brings up memories of a more innocent age.

The decline of Forest from European champions to top-six challengers in the 80s tends to be put down to Clough’s falling out with Taylor, and that clearly was a major factor, but so, too, were basic issues of finance. In 1977, they were run by a committee headed by the chairman, Brian Appleby, a lawyer, and his deputy, Stuart Dryden, a sub-postmaster. He named Liverpool, Leeds “and others”. If you assume by that he meant Arsenal, Everton and Manchester United, 30 of the next 35 league titles would be won by that five-team elite before Roman Abramovich’s Chelsea broke the sequence. It was, Thompson admitted, “a professional foul”, and today it would be a clear red card, but Liverpool were furious. Forest were without three cup-tied players, including Peter Shilton, which meant a start in goal for Chris Woods who, at 18 years and 124 days, remains the youngest goalkeeper to play in a Wembley final. Before the replay at Old Trafford, Clough’s assistant, Peter Taylor, took the squad to Scarborough, ostensibly to relax them, although the trip served a useful secondary function in helping him move some furniture up to an apartment he had bought there.

Phil Foden's stunning strike capped off a dominant Manchester City performance as they booked their place in the FA Cup semi-finals with a 4-1 win over ...

Foden all but secured his side’s place in the FA Cup semi-finals with his strike from distance, before the visitors added a fourth with just over 10 minutes remaining when Mahrez fired past Forster. Oriol Romeu had a chance to level the tie just before the half-time break, but his well-hit effort from the edge of the box was straight at City goalkeeper Zack Steffen. City’s performance was capped off by a well-struck left-footed shot from the edge of the box from Foden in the 75th minute, with Riyad Mahrez also putting his name on the scoresheet three minutes later.
