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

[bigboy]

Have to say I’m disappointed there. Few players really off it didn’t test them enough.

 

[Parker]

Sidibe wasted about 5 crosses chances in last 5 minutes

There was a point where he played it to Davies looking for him to just lay him off for the cross and each time Davies fired it back to him. Brainless at times some of our players.

 

[technojoe]

Holgate been a complete numpkin tonight

 

[Dubai Blue]

Infuriating how we don't just get it forward. What was Sidebe doing in the last few seconds?

 

[atypicalusername]

Sloppy from Holgate again.

So poor.

Holgate hasn't been great today but Mina hasn't been comfortable either.

 

[everton1953]

Granted City are far superior all over the pitch and on the bench, but Claudio has now seen how substandard our players really are. Backwards sideways and backward in a mind numbing first half. I doubt if Sigurdsson will get his place back he is so awful. On the plus side it is surely unlikely that Claudio can afford not to sign two players to improve this squad.

 

[Lelouch]

We really need a midfielder in Jan, We cannot be starting games with Delph/Sig and throw in Davies due to injury that is just no legs at all in the midfield, Really need Iwobi/Gbamin back ASAP.

 

[Jim Hopper]

Wish we could just bring back Tim Cahill for one game against these at their place. Haven’t been the same there since he left the club!

 

[Shevin Keedy]

Getting beat by Norwich at home is a wake up call - losing by a goal to City away in the middle of a packed schedule and long injury list is significantly less so tbh

Correct, that is exactly the way to look at our situation. We need to build of course, but we have the right man to do the building.

Said it for a while that a lot of our players are really poor physically. They look miles fitter than us. Hope carlos 2 fitness coaches are ready to go very soon

totally agree , the team they have on the park is average at best , they are miles quicker ans

 

[blueblueday]

Well done Moyes

You would've won today



Calm down I'm joking...

 

[Archie Knox]

Woeful performance mostly by Davies and Sigurdsson, with DCL and Richarlison running on fumes at this stage. Just have to laugh at our injury luck though, shows no sign of ending.

 

[a woods]

Pathetic !

 

[maccavennie]

Oh well, good run came to an end. A lot of below par performances tonight and that simply can't happen against the top sides.

We roll onto Sunday now!

 

[blue to the bone]

didn’t deserve a thing. But a half patched up team against city, Carlos will sort us out

@carlos21
Pressure on mate .
