When I was a child, the FA Cup was one of the crown jewels of the sporting year, along with the Grand National, Wimbledon and The Open. But with every announcement it seems to lose another piece of its identity. First it was sponsors added to the name, followed by the semi-finals at Wembley.
When I was a kid, the FA Cup was the one: it was bigger than the European Cup, even. So to win that, for me, and my dad as well - we used to watch it together - was brilliant.
I remember, in 2008, and we won the Champions League and the Premier League, and we were having our photos taken with the trophies, and someone said to me, 'Patrice, you don't look happy.' I said, 'It's because we are missing the FA Cup.'
I have been accused of not taking seriously the FA Cup on Saturday ... I have won four times the FA Cup. Who has won it more? Give me one name.
The FA Cup means so much, and one day, I hope I will win it.
We know Manchester United's history and the fact the club is known for winning trophies.
I remember, when I was at Sunderland, we made the FA Cup final and played in front of 20,000 at Derby.
Liverpool are a team that have no fear.
When you win the FA Cup, you have a title and a very respectable title in England - more than other countries.
I'm at the fantastic club that is Manchester United, one of the biggest in the world.
We will give everything for the FA Cup, Champions League and Premier League.
I was never motivated by money. I wanted to be an FA Cup finalist. I wanted to walk up the steps at Wembley. I wanted to win the league. I still only ever want to win trophies.
When people ask me what my religion is, I say it's the Arsenal.
As a kid, I was always pretending to score the goal in the FA Cup final, and I managed to live my dream.
The FA Cup for all the fans does mean something special.
To win the FA Cup - scoring the winner in the 2014 FA Cup was very nice.
The FA Cup is important to everyone at the club. We have a great record in it and we want to win a trophy.
The first introduction I had with English football was in the FA Cup in the early '80s.
As a soccer player, I wanted an FA Cup winner's medal. As an actor you want an Oscar. As a chef it's three-Michelin's stars, there's no greater than that. So pushing yourself to the extreme creates a lot of pressure and a lot of excitement, and more importantly, it shows on the plate.
Arsenal are the team that have left the biggest mark on me, without a doubt.
You play the game to win things, and if you asked me whether I would want to finish in the top four or win the FA Cup, it'd be FA Cup every time.
Arsenal will always remain a large club.
We are under no illusions that we have no given right to win things, but winning the FA Cup is not enough.
I won three FA Cup finals, two League Cup finals, and played in one of United's two Champions League-winning finals. But I lost in a lot of finals, too: the FA Cup in 1995, 2005 and 2007, the League Cup in 2003, and the Champions League in 2009 and 2011.
If you are not a good team, you will never get to the final day of the Premier League season or the final of the FA Cup.
