Milner assures Man City fans: No Wigan repeat today

James Milner has assured Manchester City fans there won't be another Wembley horror show today.

City meet Sunderland in the Capital One Cup final, with memories of their shock FA Cup final defeat to Wigan Athletic still fresh in the memory.

Milner said: "One of my great memories of City was when we beat Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-finals and half of Wembley was doing the 'Poznan.'

"The whole stadium was shaking - and that's something I'll remember forever. What happened against Wigan still hurts because these chances of winning medals don't come around too often.

"It still frustrates me but we all know that those City fans who are back at Wembley will not want to have those same feelings at the end of this game.

"Giving them a good day this time is definitely at the forefront of our minds."
