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

[Lob]

I don't know what's the biggest surprise, the blues being battered and a goal behind or my paid for Amazon Prime being 2 minutes behind real time.

24% possession, 75 corners conceded and a goal behind. Not a bad 35 minutes by Everton standards at home tbf.

Doucoure off at half time, cant risk second yellow

 

[ProZ]

I never expected us to out football City, having said that it would be nice to know anyone of our footballers know how to actually play the sport, im sick of us getting played off the park by everyone and not being able to string 2 passes, it’s a chore to watch, even the wins.

They can just let Iwobi and Coleman cross from the right all-night. No threat

Fancied that was going in without the deflection,

Not sure it was personally, looked like Pickford may have got to it. Who knows.

It was unfortunate. Sums it up really though Mina goes off and Coleman, who has been awful this season deflects it in. It's unlucky.

BUT as unlucky as it was, it was coming eventually regardless.

Are we ever going to actually try and win a football game again?

This is Fat Sam football. No one can say otherwise.

We won 7 days ago

 

[Lloydystark]

Neither Pickford or Rich are contributing anything either offensively or by way of effectively defending here

What

 

[Khalekan]

Trying to convince us all about something. Just a jest
Anyway, inevitably they’ve just scored, so let’s enjoy another 57 minutes of watching negative Everton chasing shadows.

Not for me...I am giving it to half time then doing something else with my life.

Was just going to say that myself

 

[Methuselah]

That's it. Some heads will go down. Big defeat coming up.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Mina going off changed everything.

Coleman has been awful

 

[Paul Rideout]

I thought it was a shot

 

[Charlie Burnett]

Get Coleman off please

 

[Del-boy]

Don’t know why people are moaning. This game was a write off before kick off. City probably won’t lose another game in the league this season.

 

[Seathestars]

Our crosses need to be spot on, Iwobi gets the occasional one correct
