Match Thread Everton v Manchester City, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Offside? Don't we see what var looks at now? At no point they checked offside. Like cadamateri Derby all over again, making excuses that won't stand light of day

I very rarely post but that was the best performance I can remember since maybe the 3-0 v Arsenal under Bobby M. That was a team that fought for every inch of that pitch and couldn't have given any more. I applaud every one on the pitch and everyone in the grand old girl tonight for the amazing atmosphere.

I'm not sure we have much actual skill, but if we show half that character in just half a dozen games across the rest of this season we will be easily safe.

COYB.

Can see why Liverpool have so much success against that Man City high line. Just give the ball to Trent or hendo and pop one over the defence for salah, mane or jota to run onto

Apparently it's the shirt line so still handball by that measure.

Get all the team with long sleeves!

Ref has to go to look at himself

The twit will feel great about carding Ashley Cole. For daring to respect his authority

Not even sure long sleeve shirts exist anymore. Used to love my long sleeved shirt with the Umbro diamonds on it.

I was torn between Allan and Pickford for MoM, but had to go for Jordan because of that double save.

When even Jim (I hate Everton) Beglin is adamant it was a penalty, you have to wonder..................................

Great performance in the face of a very good team. Keep this up boys.

Agree. Totally corrupt. I’m looking at the Richarlison so called offside before it and I just don’t see it either.

Sorry, think it was jeffers not cadamateri

 

[ForeverEverton]

The officials tonight, the Premier League and PGMOL are corrupt organisations....

What's the point of VAR?

Let VAR decide the marginal offside calls? I think that's fine.

Handball in box? The dialogue should be that the VAR team ask the ref what he's seen. If the ref says "I think he's controlled with his chest/shoulder" then VAR say that's not what happened and reverse the decision. If the ref says it's accidental then the VAR team should advise to go look at the screen.
