Crystal Palace captain Luka Milivojevic wants to avoid an FA Cup quarter-final with Manchester City as he attempts to lead the club back to Wembley.
Midfielder Milivojevic was the standout performer as Palace eased past League One Doncaster with Sunday’s 2-0 victory at the Keepmoat Stadium.
“Our aim in the FA Cup is to try and get to the semi-final and then the final. It won’t be easy, there are a lot of good teams to play against,” the 27-year-old told Palace’s website.
“We don’t fear anyone of course but there is one team that you don’t want – Man City.
“But you never know. What happens in the draw will happen and we’re looking forward to the cup, of course.
“If we can repeat something of what we did a few years ago and play in a final, (that) would be great, but let’s go step by step.”
Roy Hodgson’s men will now turn their attentions back to staying in the top-flight.
“For me, the Premier League is the priority of course. It’s very tight down there,” he added.
“There are 10 or 11 games until the end of the season and many points are there.
“It’ll be tough, it’ll be hard, but that’s the priority.”
“Our priority and our focus still remains the same, that we would like to do well in the cup but we would like even more to stay in the Premier League,” he said.
“That always remains the priority.”
