Manager finds fresh motivation with young talent after guiding club to win over Forest in FA Cup semi-finalNews just in: Pep Guardiola still has a few tactical tricks up his sleeve. The scary thought for the rest of the Premier League must be that Guardiola, who looked and sounded like a man ready to pack it in and head for the golf course earlier this season, is finding fresh motivation in putting Manchester City back together. Enjoy it while it lasts, you can imagine him saying to his rivals, but just be aware that I have revenge planned for anyone who dared to wonder if I was finished when we were losing 4-0 at home against Tottenham.It is, of course, worth pointing out that it is too soon to assume that a new imperial era is taking shape. City are deservedly through to their third consecutive FA Cup final, a date with Crystal Palace secured thanks to a well-crafted 2-0 win against Nottingham Forest, but Guardiola still has damage to repair.

13 h. ago Lewis and Gvardiol guide Manchester City past Forest and into FA Cup final

It was a day when the FA Cup romantics could see the script for Nuno Espírito Santo and Nottingham Forest, something to further embellish the manager’s hero status and the club’s finest season in at least 30 years. It was one when Pep Guardiola and Manchester City just refused to entertain it.City led from the second minute through Rico Lewis’s second goal of the season and when Josko Gvardiol thumped home a header on 51 minutes shortly after a glaring miss by the Forest substitute, Anthony Elanga, it felt over.
