Guardiola 'bored' but Robinson proud of side's cup display
Manchester Evening News
|February 16, 2026
PEP Guardiola branded City’s routine FA Cup victory over Salford on Saturday as ‘boring’.
City saw off their League Two neighbours 2-0 at the Etihad Stadium to reach the fifth round.
After benefiting from an early own goal from Alfie Dorrington, City went through the motions before Marc Guehi made victory certain with his first goal for the club late on.
Asked if he was pleased with the performance, Guardiola said: "No. We didn't read the spaces where they were. With the spaces in attack it depends on how they defend it and we didn't read it.”
He added: “That is the reason why the game was boring. The only good news is we go through. That's all.”
Guardiola made nine changes as he took the opportunity to rotate his squad.
