Walker wants to put 'icing on the cake'

Manchester City defender Kyle Walker says the team are motivated by their arch rivals seeking to "rain on our parade" in the FA Cup final.

The blues face Manchester United in a repeat of last year's final on Saturday and the occasion could secure Walker's third FA Cup won with the club.

"The motivation speaks for itself" Walker said. "To be the first team to do the double double, the first team to win four in a row, the first team since Manchester United to do the Treble. We keep knocking down these hurdles and this is another that we need to knock down.

"It's against our rivals who live in the same city and are going to want to rain on our parade. We need to make sure that we play the game we have been playing, particularly to the back end of this season.

"We're still coming into training now and wanting to graft and work hard to put the icing on the cake for the season.

"It's a trophy against your arch-rivals. It's a derby and it's going to be big."
