## Resource

It's FA Cup semi-final weekend, everybody! Keyboard warrior Calum McFarlane is back in charge of Chelsea as they take on Leeds for a place in the final. Rest assured, John Terry isn't jealous of McFarlane at all. Nope, not one bit. Marcus, Pete and David preview a big weekend in the FA Cup and Premier League. Tottenham travel to Wolves in a must-win game for Bobby De Zerbi's men. Be careful, he might not be wearing any pants. Plus, Eddie Howe's under increasing pressure at Newcastle, and yet more madness at FIFA.
