Fresh off complaining about how small his squad was, Roberto Mancini has found himself leaving England internationals off the team entirely as Manchester City prepare to host Reading. Never has the phrase 'an embarrassment of riches' been more apt. Anyway, a semifinal date with Manchester United is the reward for winning today (or in the replay, I suppose), and if that's not enough to get City fired up, they probably should all just go home and become farmers. Reading did manage to beat Everton at Goodison Park last round though, so it's not as though they'll be pushovers, and the Royals will be relishing their chance to ruin the chance of a Manchester derby FA Cup semifinal.
