Match Thread Everton V Manchester City - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Tipp blue]

The first of our games in hand, we need a response after the "performance" against Fulham.
Time to get the tea out Carlo.

An inverted "Everton that" moment coming?

I'm doubtful.

Sets reminder to watch 'the repair shop'.

Olsen
Godfrey Mina Keane Digne
Davies Doucoure Gomes
Iwobi Richarlison King

Can't risk Allan or DCL, save them for the Derby. Doesn't matter about pace in the midfield for this game, as the midfield will be about 2 yards in front of the back 4. Hoof it up the channels for Iwobi and King when we got the chance.

Going to get an absolute metaphorical fisting on the pitch.
Why we insist on playing a selection of immobile crabs I'll never know.

 

[Pejic300]

If we show similar levels of will, skill and application that were evident last night City score ten. How as a fan base we can predict performances like that when the manager can’t drives me nuts.

 

[Cels]

Why do we have two Man City match threads?

 

[Jeff Jones]

I'm banking on us lifting our game against teams at the top.

City don't need to win this now and maybe they'll save themselves a bit for CL.

I'm with you on this one, Flatback 8 and punt it long for King and Iwobi to chase. celebrate a draw like winning the league

 

[Kaiser Soysauce]

I'm slightly optimistic for this game. It's typical of Everton to beat Man City just to have us dwell on the Fulham result. Sets us up for fake optimism against the RS too. You heard it here first.

 

[RomanReigns]

Personally I’d go 5 at the back with iwobi and digne as wing backs and Keane, Mina and Godfrey as the centre halves

 

[LocalNative]

Be surprised if we didn't set up to defend from the off here with the hopes of getting a few set pieces.

Olsen
Holgate - Mina - Keane - Godfrey
Allan - Doucoure - Gomes
Richarlison - DCL - Digne
