Match Thread Man City v Everton - Sunday 21st November 2pm. Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Gilbert..]

What a gut wrenching feeling that the best you hope for going into a game is that you dont get embarrassed.
Just once Everton. Surprise me.

 

[tsubaki]

Aside from one change that’s probably the best side he could have put out. COYB.

 

[Tipp blue]

Genuinely confused how a broken toe has taken 3 months to heal.

It's because our medical staff are as incompetent as our managmenment who are as incompetent as our players.

 

[Saint Domingo]

We have a world class manager though?

Thats what you and @ForeverBlue92 keep saying?

Surely if thats the case we get a point?

We’re playing probably the best manager in the world with the best team in the world away from home without three of our best players down the spine of the team. The only chance we have of getting anything from the game is because Benitez is a decent manager but that in itself wont be enough to guarantee we don’t take a beating. Benitez seems to have blinded some people to pure footballing logic recently. We now have swathes of this forum expecting a rotten group of players without their best players to suddenly go away to the best teams in Europe and sweep them away, and anything other than this is proof that the manager should be fired. Bizarre behaviour.

Rondon has more chance of scoring than Richarlison, as a CF.

His toe is fine mate it's the big hairy fanny that's still a mess.

 

[TyphooToffee]

I'm hoping for a swashing display, whatever that means

Apparently swash means swagger. That'll do for me

 

[Saint Domingo]

Coleman or Keane to be the biggest topic of conversation on here later.

Behind Delph of course.

Not sure who else we could play, I’ve never rated Keane and Coleman’s prime was 8 or 9 years ago. Mina and Holgate are out though so Keane has to play and Kenny is leagues worse than Coleman.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Pepe playing a jarg team just to prove a point.

Lake palmer nailed on to score.

I had to google the lad.

 

[blueconverse]

Strongest team we could field with injuries and still no chance. Brands has alot to answer for

 

[RomanReigns]

Let’s hope its 55 year old Carlton Palmer

There's me thinking we had a world class manager last season when they beat us three times scoring 10 against a solitary goal from us?
Theyve beat us 8 on the trot but the current boss 'should' be stopping that rot, with spine of the team missing??

 

[Sadken]

Jesus will come on and score, he usually does, loves playing against us, just like most strikers.

Who'd still offer more than iwobi.

The continuation of this could go on and on.............................................................
