Supporters face a "difficult" situation as Manchester City prepare to play in another FA Cup semi-final at Wembley, says boss Pep Guardiola.

Crystal Palace knocked off Aston Villa in what has to be called a mild upset at the very least, sealing their third appearance in an FA Cup Final. For the first time, they won't meet Manchester United in pursuit of their first FA Cup trophy.

When Crystal Palace failed to win any of their first eight Premier League games this season the alarm bells might have been ringing for their Austrian coach Oliver Glasner.
