Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, has claimed the Premier League is jeopardising his teams chances of qualifying for the Champions League.
City will play in the FA Cup final against Crystal Palace at Wembley on Saturday.
Then 72 hours later, the former champions play Bournemouth at the Etihad, as they continue to fight for a Champions League spot.
Guardiola has now revealed City asked the Premier League to push the Bournemouth game back by 24 hours, but their request was thrown out.
The Premier League had brought Aston Villa vs Tottenham Hotspur forward to Friday night, to ensure Ange Postecoglous men have the same recovery time as their Europa League final opponents Manchester United.
