Manchester United are favourites to progress to the final of the FA Cup this weekend but Championship club Coventry City cannot be underestimated
Manchester United head into this Sunday's FA Cup semi-final needing to deal with the weight of expectation which comes with the favourites tag.
Relief at dodging Man City "Yeah, I guess there was a bit of relief that we didn’t draw Manchester City. No disrespect to Manchester United, I don’t think anybody thinks they are going to be a pushover," Turner explained. Owner's pre-season demand of Mark Robins "It is very much a bonus because Coventry lost their two best players last summer - Gustavo Hamer and Viktor Gyokeres. They were huge players to lose for Coventry but their sales for a combined £35m enabled the club to reinvest and draft in new players.
Ex-Everton dangerman is the one to watch "You cannot look much further than the strikers . Ellis Simms, a former Everton prospect, took a long time to get going this season but he has scored a lot of goals in a short space of time so he is in form at the moment and playing really well. "He is so tactically switched on and their attention to tactical detail is incredible. That is how they beat Wolves apart from the fact the players played to their absolute maximum on the day, as they are capable of doing, but they caught Wolves on the hop by playing players out of position that their management wasn’t expecting.
"He felt that was a distraction because as much as he was trying to keep his players focused on pushing for the Playoffs, which was the bigger prize, it was a bit of a distraction. Interestingly, they have hardly done any press this week up until the conference on Friday and I don’t think any of the players have done anything this week for the media as a result of taking their eye off the ball last weekend.
