Deposed as Premier League champions, but Pep Guardiola’s City looks hungry for a cup treble.
Raheem Sterling finished off Newcastle yesterday and set up an FA Cup semi-final against Arsenal.
The hurt felt by seeing rivals Liverpool lauded as the best in the land was channeled into an utterly dominant demolition of Steve Bruce’s side.
Birthday boy Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring at the end of the first half in which Newcastle was hardly given a kick, such as City’s persistent, ball-hogging brilliance.
They are chasing a seventh FA Cup, to add to the Carabao Cup they’ve already banked this season, plus a Champions League last-16 second leg against Real Madrid is on the horizon in August.
