Match Thread Man City 1-1 Everton. Dec 26th . 12.30

[Mr Happy]

Another great result

Bit too positive bro. Few mulled wines taking effect

3pts from the last 3 games the bulk of us thought we'd never see, we'll done blues.

Did @matty1878 say he'd delete his account if we didn't get beat?

That was the chance !View attachment 287848

4 on 2 and the keeper doesn’t even have to
make a save. It just goes to show how poor we are offensively bar n’Diaye. In contrast the back 5 bar Myko were excellent.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Well sadly we didn’t win, but it was a decent battling point overall

Another one towards 40 points

 

[MrPerfectNot]

Obv take the point, any point we can get.

Still though - 4 on 2 attack and we didn't even get the ball to their keeper?

 

[edge]

Good performance happy with that.

 

[Zatara]

Poor? He was feeding of scraps when he came on & done everything a centre forward should have done.

He wasn’t great, he wasn’t bad but he offered far more than DCL did.

Why was he “poor”?

Did nothing at all. He must have turned into roy of the rovers on 90mins based on all the posts about him.

 

[mikel_88]

Broja must have turned it on after 90mins...as i wrote, before 90mins he looked pretty poor. Maybe poor is harsh but a lamppost? Standing around...didnt see him pressing or moving.

Harrison always dreadful and id punt him back to leeds if we can.

Mangala...good lord. 3 dreadful things today:

1: First half were attacking and passes it to their left back 5 yards away.

2: Fouls their player centrally for the dangerous KDB free kick 2nd half when he was never getting the ball and dived in.

3: Fouls their player right before the 90th minute diving in for nothing.

I get he is composed and can make short passes...we can all see that.

WHAT DOES HE ACTUALLY DO ?
He doesnt run forwards/backwards.
He cant tackle.
He has no pace.

Again helps us keep the ball holds his position so the team keeps its shape, has no pace you seen the rest of the team here dont think fast but is not as slow as you make out to be.ofc be miss placed passes but it you look at the game he is in most attacks we make. Fair to have your view on him i think your wrong

Ye we gotta sign mangala in the summer

If Broja impresses and scores goals as well we should sign him too

Yeah if can get him at good price

 

[Groucho]

Stick to the wank fantasies over young players, football isn’t for you

I don’t agree with Zat on the point he’s making, but there’s no need for this, grow up.

 

[Davideeyore]

Unlike others I think the next 3 games are tougher.

I think (most) of the players and the manager and his starf seemed to be upping their game a little.

Can't think why.

 

[Eidean]

Don’t post on here often.

Is @matty1878 a man of his word? Looking forward to an account deletion.

 

[Kraken]

I think mangala has been a revelation. I hope we sign this steady eddy on a permanent deal.

Harrison - a better player option than him and we would be 4 points better off from the last 2 games. Works hard, but just not good enough when it matters.

A good point, but on reflection with better quality in a couple of positions , it could have been 3.

Apologies boss man
