Guardiola praised players like Mateta, Eze, and Sarr, noting their potential to disrupt City's plans. Despite injuries to key players, City is confident in their squad's depth and seeks to perform well at Wembley in pursuit of the FA Cup title.
City have no fresh injury concerns ahead of the 144th FA Cup Final at Wembley on Saturday. Rodri, Oscar Bobb, John Stones and Nathan Ake remain sidelined through injury.
They [Crystal Palace] have had a good season, second part. More than a year with Oliver working with the same players. It's final of the FA Cup, an honour and privilege.
Mateta is strong on long balls and after that I would say their quality with Eze is obvious. Sarr in the semi-final punished Villa a lot.
