Manchester United will have the same dressing-room as their previous two visits to Wembley Stadium, with United fans occupying the east half of the stadium. The FA Cup Final match ball will be walked out by former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson and former Man City forward Mike Summerbee.
Ten Hag says Antony is unlikely to be fit for the FA Cup final: “Dos Santos still has a chance but it’s a really small chance – he didn’t make the progress, so he still has a chance but unlikely he is available.”
Pep Guardiola on Ten Hag: “He represents our profession in the best way possible. I can’t say we are friends, we are not in touch much, but I think #mufc have an exceptional manager for many, many years.”
Man United Boss Erik Ten Hag said, “We want to win a cup, it is not about stopping them, it is about we win the cup, it is a great opportunity. It is great that we deserve that opportunity to be in a cup final and meet Man City, it is a great opportunity and we fought so hard for it.” Ten Hag added that, “I have played many cup finals in the Netherlands as a player and as a coach and they were always fantastic experiences. In the Netherlands, we have De Kuip and it’s a special place to be.” Ten Hag said: “You can’t set conclusions on the basis of one game. Therefore, you need more. Already we make that evaluation and I make my conclusions. But, nevertheless, it is a good test on Saturday.”
Harry Maguire could form part of Manchester United’s package to land Chelsea’s Mason Mount. Pochettino tried to sign Maguire while he was at Hull City.
