Match Thread Manchester City(1) Vs Everton(2) - Capital One Cup - Semi Final 2nd Leg - Weds 27th Jan - 19:45 KO

[Titus Bramble]

We haven't even kicked off yet you bad meffs

 

[orly]

When we drew here 2 weeks ago osman started

We also had Besic all over the shop

Cleverley vs the City midfield

Time to bring out old faithful

 

[ToffeeTim]

Coleman was absolutely fine on sunday, well missed two sitters like, but from a fitness standpoint looked grand

 

[R.Reddington]

Osman's positioning when we're defending is the reason he is in.

He might not have the legs any more but he knows where to stand to make the opposition uncomfortable.
He still remember's the old Moysey discipline.

Anyway. COYB!!

The old Moysey discipline is only a myth around the fields of Goodison now. It's long gone.

Glad he's playing Funes Mori. Coleman must have a knock.

Agreed Dave, Coleman must not be 100% fit and ditto with McCarthy. Mori will be a danger from set pieces

 

[Jags]

Glad he's playing Funes Mori. Coleman must have a knock.

Didn't look sharp when he came on against Swansea to be fair

 

[Tilling]

It's probably worth noting that Osman played left mid when we got a 0-0 at their place. In fact, it's the exact same side except for Joel in goal and Clev over the injured Besic. Don't be fuming lads, Stones at right back is not the worst thing in the world.

 

[EFC David]

FFS. I was confident until I seen no Coleman, Stones out of position and Osman playing. Why not play an actual wide man like Lennon instead of trying to shoehorn Osman in too the first eleven? I'm Bobby Martinez biggest fan but tonight I'm worried.

 

[By god I'm blue]

I'm not worried about the line up.

It is what it is.

Let's see how we perform.

 

[Furey1878]

Can't believe Barry is playing upfront...

 

[TheAlmightyFloater]

In the league wasn't it?

Probably mate, couldn't remember which match it was.

Would have been an immense goal if he'd pulled it off.

 

[IrishToffee37]

Feeling quietly confident somehow. Must be the ol denial kicking in again.

 

[bobafro]

Lads... c'mon.

That team is not our strongest team... but we can still get a result here. Calm it down.

Serious negative vibes before the previous two city games and they both turned out to be positive. Support the team like crazies... we can absolutely do this.

 

[Eggs]

...up the Toffees.

How are people feeling about a 150/1 Funes Mori brace?
