Quietly Erik ten Hag is getting Man United on the right track.

But the body language depends on them and sometimes they are not good." Expanding on the side’s lack of readiness for the contest the Catalan added: ”When you are not prepared to play this game you arrive one inch late and don't score a goal. This is one of my main decisions when I choose the line-up,” he explained after the disappointing result against Everton. As City will know better than most, patchy home form does not deliver a title. Dropped points against Aston Villa, Everton and Brentford are evidence of that. New players have come and we continue with them.” Or the meek 1-1 draw against strugglers Everton in the previous home game? Normally we are a team that buys and didn’t sell much. There are many games you can start not good and overcome and we didn't do it.” not just first-team players - academy and loan players. "The better team won. We were not ready.

Southampton produced the shock of the League Cup quarterfinals round, defeating the defending champions Manchester City 2-0.

“The objective of the tie was to get through. But we have to play a lot better than we did over large spells of the game,” he said. “I’m really proud of the players, of myself and the coaches.

And can he rely on Grealish to come good? Both have two league goals to their name this season, having each found the net eight times in the top-flight last term. Gundogan's future is also uncertain, with his City deal set to expire in June. Will he give Phillips another chance to cover for Rodri? There is a reason that Guardiola plays Rodri almost every single game while giving some of his other key players a rest from time to time. Will City be able to cope? [Everton](/sport/teampages/everton.html) side stuck in the bottom three. Rodri was finally given a much-needed rest for City away at Southampton. [struggled to adapt to the team's style of play](/sport/football/article-11604619/Jack-Grealish-admits-difficult-thought-adapt-Man-City.html?ico=topics_pagination_desktop) since moving to City for £100m in 2021 - and it has shown on the pitch. He is a manager's dream. When at his best, Cancelo's playmaking ability from out wide can perhaps only be matched by Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold. The Spanish midfielder is one of the best in the world in his position.

Pep Guardiola admits Manchester City "do not have a chance" against Manchester United if they repeat their showing in the loss at Southampton.

We were not here." We were not ready. We were not prepared to play in this competition to get to the semi-finals.

EXCLUSIVE BY JACK GAUGHAN: Summerbee still lives and breathes City, still at every game - home and away, domestic and foreign - as an ambassador.

When he was appointed, I was on the deckchairs at Torquay having a bit of fun. Briefly interrupted by a City employee desperate to say hello, Summerbee recounts the story that the astonishingly fit midfielder Bell would occasionally run backwards, chatting as his team-mates panted and wheezed. 'We used to have a warm-up around the whole park with training and interval running. Summerbee is Mr City and owes much of that to Mercer and assistant Malcolm Allison. It came over on the radio that he was manager and I phoned him up. He remains one of the most popular men in the area and the guestlist for a secret party, organised by City and his wife Tina inside the Etihad Stadium's hospitality suites, is testament to that. For those people to be there in the middle of the football season was quite remarkable. 'I used to love playing on the wing when the crowd were close to you,' he says. They were all there, the City dignitaries, for a lunch that was rather long by the end. He does rightly point to scoring at Old Trafford during a League Cup semi-final win in 1969 as one of his treasured moments. His is a unique life, one celebrated by the club when he reached the grand milestone of 80 last month. It's like a drug, isn't it?': MIKE SUMMERBEE on his secret party with Pep, his great mate George Best and sharing a glass of red with Sir Alex at Saturday's Manchester derby
