Manchester City, Liverpool, and Chelsea all secured big victories in the FA Cup third round on Saturday, while Premier League side Brentford suffered a surprising defeat to lower-league team Plymouth. The 8-0 rout of Salford by Manchester City was especially significant as it was a blow to the dreams of Salford's former Manchester United star owners.
