Match Thread Man City v Everton 23 May 2021 - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[maccavennie]

Win and we'll get 7th and Europe (can't see Spurs beating Leicester). Draw and we'll get 8th or 9th, with Arsenal getting 7th. Lose, and we're probably 10th (working on the assumption Arse and Leeds are likely to win their games)

10th it is then

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Straight shoot out between Us, Spurs, Arsenal and Leeds could get involved.

7th Spurs - 59 points Leicester (a)
8th Everton - 59 points Man City (a)
9th Arsenal - 58 points Brighton (h)
10th Leeds - 56 points West Brom (h)

Looking at that I think Arsenal are gonna nick it, potentially Leeds...... Man City will beat us, weve no chance in this one. 3 or 4 nil.......

Brighton are no pushovers for an arsenal flattered by tonight's scoreline. If we get a point at Citeh even and Leicester beat Spurs, that would see off Leeds and Arsenal would have to win. If we spawn a win at Citeh then all we have to hope for is Leicester not losing to Spurs at home. Easy Peasy!

We've had some impressive wins against big and/or bogey teams this season. I fear this won't be one of them. But it's been a nutso 20/21 so hey, maybe we'll see another Carlo Special 0 - 1 win.

Leeds aren't involved in the race for Europe...they would need to overcome their 15 goal difference on Spurs.

They're still involved in trying to humiliate Everton in to a 10th placed finish though.

Guardiola will know his starting 11 for the CL Final and it probably hasn't played together for a while. He'll want it to have a run out to prepare and
is likely to use it in the match against Everton.

Sounds tough for us, but it could work in our favour. The result isn't very important to them and they may not go in as hard as they would usually.

I hate the 'Everton that' thing some of our cynics come out with and have never used it, but it could work in a positive way for us here.

Of course, none of it matters if Spurs beat Leicester, and you never know.

Football Gods give another ironic twist...put everything again in the hands of the bottlers on the last day..
0-1 it is...

Southampton get revenge and beat Wham 9-0

We win 10-0

Europa, easy

We needed the Brighton defeat not to have happened in Cities last game.....

I think Spurs beating Leicester is less likely than us beating City

To get it we will get tattered

6-1

then they can stand around applauding the Man City players as they lift the trophy. A thing none of these feckless tossers will ever see (Godfrey aside when he moves onto better things).

Then they can all get on their insta accounts and have a great summer spending their millions they’ve earned from being bang average footballers.

Ram it.

Man City will be fairly focused for the CL final, but will probably want to win in front of a full stadium for them again after so long.

Pep’s rotation policy is strange at the best of times, he could go fairly strong just as easily as he could play a youth team and Carson in goal again

Citeh 6-5 Everton

Why’s everyone worried. We’ve been to lots of places this season and won

No fans. With spectators in the ground we win about 2 away games a season! Anyway, this reminds me of when we went to Arsenal on the last day in about 1996. They had nothing to play for, and beat us 6-1, even Tony Adams scored!

City 0
Everton 2

Tom Davies masterclass,setting up DCL,with two lovely finishes.
