I can guarantee you that there will be a City player in the final.

On one side of the draw with have de Jong, but on the other we have Boateng AND Silva, so one of them is guaranteed to make the finals.

Do you mean whilst at City? If not then probably Didi Hamman in 2002.

No, there hasn't. We discussed it back in February-ish, in a thread I started titled something like 'Has there ever been a World Cup Winner at City?'
