City conceded four goals in 37 crazy second-half minutes at the Emirates to consign them to yet another defeat in the Premier League last Sunday, which leaves them fifth in the table.

Nevertheless, the Brazilian winger believes a free week in the schedule has allowed the team to “reflect” on what went wrong in London and the ways in which they can improve ahead of their visit to League Two opposition on Saturday.

"It's been good to have that free week without a game," Savinho told ESPN.

"Obviously it's been a full week, we've all had things to do. It has given us a great opportunity to think about the game last Sunday, to reflect on it.

"Of course, [the FA Cup] comes quickly. We're travelling down to London and it's another final for us."

“Every tournament is a target for me,” Savinho said.

“Unfortunately, we are out of the EFL Cup, Spurs knocked us out of that, but we've got to look at every trophy as an objective and this is a great opportunity to progress.

"It's a great opportunity for us, but it's one we have to take because if we don't [beat Leyton Orient] we're out. It's as simple as that. So it's going to be like a final for us.

“We losegamebet, we have to go home, so hopefully we can put in a good performance, get our confidence back and go first to the next round.”
