Man City boss Pellegrini eager to reach Wembley after Cup triumph

Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini would love to go to Wembley.

City are a step closer after their Capital One Cup win at Leicester City.

City's last appearance in a League Cup final came back in 1976 when Tony Book's side recorded a 2-1 win over Newcastle.

The manager admits he would relish the opportunity for a day out in the English capital.

"This is an important competition because always to play a final at Wembley is a very beautiful thing," he smiled.

"Also, I think it is important to win all the competitions that you are playing, why not if you have to play?

"A final in Wembley is a big game and it's important for a team to be used to trying to win all the games we are playing, it's good for us.

"I think it could be a very beautiful game for the final."
