Only 72 City different players have played in an FA Cup final to date and we’re looking for the best eleven to make a cup final dream team.
We don’t expect you to pin down individual roles, so we’ve grouped the players into four simple categories – all you have to do is name a keeper, four defenders, four midfielders, two strikers and one substitute.
The entry closest to matching our panel of judges will win a shirt signed by City’s starting XI against Stoke on 14 May.
Send your selections to competitions@mcfc.co.uk by 12 May and the winner will be announced on 13 May – you can enter as many times as you like.
