Match Thread Everton v Man Citeh

[Joey66]

Best first half performance of the season, or close to it. Tactics seem spot on! Best back 3 combo of the players we have.

If rom had of fed kev like he did for his goal we'd be 2 up.

Silva is a class act....

Agree best 45 mins under RK ever - can we keep the closing down up every player playing well even Barry is looking quick we all hope we can win this!

Great performance so far, hard to believe we'll keep it up for 90 so subs will be very important, and we could really use a second.

I didn't think he could make me love him anymore but Tom Davies managed it with that through ball to Kev, great vision and weight of pass, we're been missing that in midfield for ages.

Lets not do an Arsenal, eh
We get a second, Man City get one back in the last 10 mins and we clench like a chinese finger trap.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Decent half that. It's performances like this that create the frustration with Barkley though. He hasn't been at the races at all.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

coleman Holgate area looks a little shaky. Otherwise very good half. Maybe need a bit more patience 2nd half, slow the ball down and not try to hit rom quick on every possession. just work the clock.

Good first half that ..davies is a wee monster

 

[DRM]

Great first touch by Rom there for the goal.

If Davies had longer socks could he run quicker?

 

[Aqui1a]

Why are the pundits pronouncing it 'Davis'?

Hands up, Barry has been decent, seems to be getting matched against toure more often than not which is meanign the pace isnt an issue, good tactics by the boss

Guess why he gets paid millions and im not lol

Yes for the first 45 mins fingers crossed he and we can keep this up?

 

[zzr45]

Need to get recomposed a bit quicker after losing the ball. Bit of flapping is let them counter quickly.

just literally a mater of inches though on a number of occasions with those through balls - but yes - very frustrating !
