PEP GUARDIOLA: “[My players] are incredibly happy. It’s not a win in the PL, it’s another competition. We’re happy after beating Chelsea and Arsenal in the first two rounds. It’ll be a completely different day at the Emirates. Mikel doesn’t rotate much in the Premier League.”



He added “The impact from Oleks Zinchenko, Martin Ødegaard. We know it’s going to be different with more pressure. Now we have days off. Time to rest and prepare for a final against Spurs. Game by game.”



Pep Guardiola added“ The FA Cup is an important competition, and we are so satisfied, but this [result] will be forgotten by them when we are there against Spurs. I am delighted because I know he [Julian Alvarez] can play with Erling Haaland.”
