London - Big-spending Manchester City were the highest-profile casualties on third-round day in the FA Cup as they were humiliated 3-0 at home by struggling Championship side Nottingham Forest.

Chelsea were forced to a replay by League One side Southend, while Portsmouth and West Bromwich Albion were both held to draws by lowly opposition.

London, Jan 3: Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has asked his ace striker Cristiano Ronaldo to stop retaliating against his opponents on the field, because the spotlight is always on him.

The Portuguese star has been involved in a number of controversial incidents of late after being fouled.

Ronaldo has kicked out at Scott Brown of the Celtic, the Spurs' Michael Dawson and Stoke's Andy Wilkinson. This week he had a tunnel bust-up with Middlesbrough defender Emanuel Pogatetz, The Sun reported.

London - Two goals from Roman Pavlyuchenko sent Tottenham Hotspur into the fourth round of the FA Cup on Friday night as they overcame Wigan Athletic 3-1 at White Hart Lane.

Pavlyuchenko broke the deadlock from the penalty spot early in the second half after Frazier Campbell had been brought down by Wigan goalkeeper Richard Kingson.

With 15 minutes to go, Luka Modric appeared to have made the win safe for the home side as he headed in after Jamie O'Hara's shot had rebounded off the post.

But Spurs, who despite a recent recovery in the Premier League still languish dangerously close to the relegation zone, were unable to relax as Wigan striker Henri Camara scored from close range in the dying minutes.

London - Manchester City have agreed a fee with Chelsea to sign their full back Wayne Bridge, manager Mark Hughes confirmed on Friday.

"We need to speak to the boy and try to agree personal terms. If we can do that hopefully Wayne will be a Manchester City player, that's the aim.

"Wayne will probably travel to Manchester this evening and hopefully negotiations will go well and he can have a medical tomorrow.

"Hopefully if the deal can be concluded I'll be absolutely delighted to welcome him to Manchester City."
