Manchester United were able to reclaim the Premier League
title this season with the minimum of fuss, easily seeing off the underwhelming
challenge from last year's champions, Manchester City.
It has been a disappointing campaign in general for City,
but they have a chance to redeem themselves somewhat when they tackle unfancied Wigan in the FA Cup final - and the Latics must surely be bracing themselves
for an onslaught from a side desperate to prove they have what it takes to
bounce back from this season's woes.
City were expected to build on last season's dramatic final-day
league triumph by at least pushing United all the way for the top domestic
prize this year, but their bid to defend the title fell way short and their
campaign has petered out dismally in recent weeks.
Boss, Roberto Mancini, has bemoaned a lack of major summer
signings as the main reason why their season has largely failed and, in
particular, United being able to land Robin van Persie from Arsenal ahead of
them, proved pivotal in the end.
However, City have shown glimpses of their old selves and
their recent performances in wins over United at Old Trafford and against
Chelsea in the Cup semi-final proved, on their day, they remain an outstanding
side with some truly world-class talent in their ranks.
And, considering how the season has gone so far, that is why
the Latics should be worried ahead of the Wembley showdown on May 11.
City simply must bring the FA Cup back to the Etihad for the
second time in three years to salvage something from a season that has failed
to live up to expectations.
Their woeful Champions League campaign, when they again
failed to get past the group stage, coupled with their league disappointment,
means an unthinkable defeat against huge outsiders in the FA Cup odds, Wigan,
would render 2012-13 as a total disaster.
Wigan can offer some resistance in the final but, with City
desperate to finish a poor season on a high, a convincing triumph for Roberto
Mancini's men is expected.
