Asmir won't Beg for a cup start

The 23-year-old is first-choice stopper for the Potters in the Premier League but manager Tony Pulis has used the FA Cup to give 34-year-old Dane Thomas Sorensen game time. Begovic said: "We all want to play on such a big stage and in a big game for the club. I would be disappointed, but I would have no complaints. "Thomas has done really well when he has come into the team in the FA Cup. The most important thing is that the team gets the result and we get into the final. "Bolton are a good side, who are doing exceptionally well in the league. We know it will be a tough game and we are going to have to play really well to get through." Begovic arrived at the Britannia Stadium in a £3.25m deal from Portsmouth last season - just four months before Pompey reached the FA Cup final.
