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

Oh Yerry

2 games just too much to ask

 

[blueblood]

Look at the state of our bench. City will be bricking themselves at the prospect of any of them coming on.

 

[Dykovski200]

I don't think so, genuinely. Unless you haven't got a brain, you'd know we cannot get anything from this game with or without Lewin, and we have a much more winnable game in three short days.

Wow, straight to insults, well played sir

 

[Terrarian]

FFS Frank a back 5, do you never learn, not doing yourself any favours there. It never ever works for us. I hope we don't get utterly smashed. I am not watching this cba getting angry, hopefully I'm the jinx and we win lol

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

He might be a top prospect, but they have got an incredibly inexperienced 18 yo defender on the pitch. If we are saying youth International captain Onana needs 6 months to settle, then if we are targeting anything today it should be this young chap.

Goodness me, no wonder we’re struggling

Just look at that squad!

 

[navidson]

Completely pointless playing DCL in this game - we all know what's going to happen

I'll go for 34 minutes

Take a shot every team City have an attempt on goal today:

Take a shot every time Everton approach the City penalty area:

Damned if he does does, damned if he doesn’t.

Was just thinking the exact same thing tbf. His job is on the line, he might not be here for the next game. He's taking a gamble on the only striker we have who can play target man, whack balls up to him for 60-70 mins and hope we're still in the game by then methinks.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Wow, straight to insults, well payed sir

No insults. My post is aimed at no individual on this forum. But it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand the meaning of my post.

Tbh mate what else do you think he should do. There is more or less no formation that will get anything here because we're just not good enough. We've seen these players. We all know it.

 

[DanB90]

I’ve put my body through enough over the past week or so and not sure I’ve got this one in me today.

All the best to you utter masochists out there.

He can’t win with some of them on here, people whinging about the state of the bench when it’s all we have, what else can he do, I would’ve liked to have seen Cannon on there though.

The thing is it's only our (as a fanbase I guess) cope, this "experience" crap.

If Messi was in our academy he'd not be in football anymore. "Experience" ffs.

I think we’re past the point of picking and choosing which games we’re going to try and win now tbh

Every league game is a cup final now
