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

[ClausThomsen]

We'll need to be ahead here on the hour 98 minute mark. Maybe we can get lucky.

Fixed that for you.

But seriously, into to these Bloos, they're taking it lightly.

4-0 to Ebepton.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Part of me thinks we can genuinely do this, but it's going to take heaps of good fortune

That optimism will no doubt wane if they start smashing us to pieces in the early going though

 

[jimmythenut]

Do we have anybody who can hit the target from outside the box?

Siggy and Richarlison can surely have a go..

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Pep trolling Carlo here. Make him pay, Carlo

 

[BlueStevie35]

6 U-23's and no striker on our bench. Says a lot about squad depth despite a couple of injuries

Broadhead is a striker

 

[peteblue]

Just had a seizure looking at that City bench.

City are just taking the piss, because they can.....

 

[Jim Hopper]

Be nice if a player like Richarlison will step it up and take the game by the scruff of the neck for us but he won’t. We don’t have anyone else in there capable of attempting that. Backs to the wall and set pieces it will be. It’s gonna be a long night. Injuries have destroyed us.

 

[consho]

Well, aren't you stupid.

Well, aren't you stupid.

No I am an Evertonian who always hopes my side will win but somew of the managers recent selections should have warned me against making that bet

Virginia
Holgate Mina Godfrey
Coleman Allan Gomes Digne
Soggy
DCL Richy​

Maybe.

Who knows.

That's what I think but it can also switch to this which is why Holgate got the nod.

Virginia
Holgate Mina Godfrey Digne
Coleman Allan Gomes Richarlison
Sigurdsson
Calvert-Lewin

I think there is method in there.

 

[JMT]

Stupid line up. Gomes and Siggy don't work together and why on earth is Davies not in the side. I put ,20 pounds on Everton at odds of 10/1 this morning. That was before I saw this ridiculous line up

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Did against spurs

Think you're forgetting Wales U21 star Nathan Broadhead there.

2 goals in 19 games for Burton Albion last season!

 

[NathDogg]

Some bench that for citteh.

Gerrin to these bloos, few crunchers early on.

Need a big game from ghosty sigerdfraud tonight, set up Richy and DCL with some opportunities to test their plassy keeper.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

The 9 on their bench could beat our starting 11 with two less players (classic crying it in tactic)

 

[jimmythenut]

5-0 Everton. 78% Possession and 30 shots on target. City finish the game with 8 men.
