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

[Zezti]

Our corners are horrendous

 

[Mozza1987]

The crossing is laughable. Do we practise

 

[blue to the bone]

The difference between the best teams and the rest is finishing. The scored theirs and we didn't. Even though the were a lot better we missed easy chances.

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Tom Davis should have started ....

I can only imagine the plumes of fume visible for miles around if Davies’s name had been on the team sheet. Hindsight is a wonderful thing...

 

[DanEFC92]

One of these days we’ll hit a decent corner *shakes fist to the sky

 

[BernieH]

Hopefully see the back of this formation when Gana is back

 

[BiggyRat]

I’m claiming a victory here. Mega billions City team only put three past us! It’s just like a win!

 

[Blackwell Livermore]

I am with you mate, we have created lots of chances, Richarlison has missed two howlers which could have changed the game significantly

We're not as bad as the knee-jerkers have made us out to be.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

We've had chances (2 great saves from Pickford kept us in it as well) overall though we've been crap, sloppy passing, terrible defending. We just stood off them for the majority of the time, made it massively too easy for them.

 

[BlueToff]

A case of bad passing, bad finishing and just being generally gash today, not the standards we have set ourselves although City are a great side

We haven't played well yet have created some great chances - it's the story of the season so far against the top sides.

Need a freshen up now, though.

 

[Tel001]

We have actually played nice football at times. Done alot better than most teams will at the ethiad this season.

You been watching the replay of the 4-0 a few years back? We have been gash

 

[TheNinja]

It was just a very good cross.

And not good marking... Or is it just zonal?

 

[kenada_blue]

Looked far better since Davies came on.

I don't think that Gylfi played badly, he's just wasted deep, and it's let Gomes do what he does best.

Agree with that.

 

[Dunc's elbow]

Walcott actually shown more today in his cameo than he's shown all season

I was thinking the same, best he has been for months.

 

[Del-boy]

Thought the match had finished 5 minutes ago with all them empty seats
