Pep Guardiola will have to make some difficult decisions when he decides his Manchester City side to face Crystal Palace in the FA Cup final on Saturday afternoon. City still have two important Premier League matches left in their pursuit of Champions League qualification but won't want to waste their chance to win a trophy this weekend.
It says so much about the standards City have set in recent years that a campaign in which they could win the FA Cup and finish in the top-five would be considered one of disappointment, though they can't afford any complacency ahead of Palace after a campaign in which they have fallen to plenty of surprise defeats already.
Kevin de Bruyne will hope to lift his final trophy in a City shirt before he departs in the summer, while it is the first opportunity for those signed in January to achieve some success with the club. Here is how we think City should line up in the FA Cup final this weekend.
