Phil Foden leads Manchester City's pre-FA Cup final portraits as Pep Guardiola's side prepare to face off against their noisy neighbours in a repeat of last season's showpiece at Wembley

Daily Mail  

Have Chelsea offered Manchester United a way out of the Erik ten Hag darkness through Mauricio Pochettino's exit? Ahead of the one of the football calendar's most anticipated occasions, members of Pep Guardiola's side including the likes of Phil Foden, Bernardo Silva and Kyle Walker posed for official portraits. Phil Foden posed for portraits ahead of Man City's FA Cup final clash with Man United The 23-year-old midfielder has enjoyed an exceptional campaign for the Citizens thus far Victory on Saturday would mark City's third FA Cup win since Pep Guardiola took over in 2016 After a serious injury severely limited Kevin De Bruyne's involvement for much of the campaign, Foden has stepped up to the plate as the club's main creative outlet and has retained his role since the Belgian's return. Standing in their way at Wembley is a Manchester United side that have largely struggled to find their feet in Erik ten Hag's second season in charge. Foden's England teammate Kyle Walker has been integral to City's Premier League success this season The Englishman is expected to be joined in defence by Ruben Dias in Saturday's showpiece clash Bernardo Silva has been prolific in the FA Cup this season with three goals in his last two games in the competition With the Dutchman's future at the club appearing increasingly tenuous, Ten Hag will be hoping to avoid a repeat of last season's showpiece, where Ilkay Gundogan made history by giving his side the lead on 12 seconds.
