Match Thread Everton 0-2 Man City. Sat April 19th. 3pm

[Sharpies volley]

We must be doing ok. I held my poo until half time

Well done mate. Not easy, that.

 

[Taifi gorm]

Doucoure and Harrison improved. Broja, well he's on the pitch

 

[mahermi1]

Lol even ref was bored, no injury time. Back in the changes for his Bovril

It's been a good fair match no time wasting or feigning injury, disagree respectfully mate.

 

[Blue Willy]

Broja off, Beto on. No other changes.

JH has done some good things, like most weeks, but by god does he fluff his lines often - generally when were in great positions. We really need a right quality winger. Mbuemo will do.

 

[LostLegend]

Solid performance so far.
Not a great match to watch, but can't complain with us keeping City this quiet.

If they play like that again second half, they are deffo there for the taking.

 

[Walter Ego]

Great chance for Harrison to pull that back across goal, ends up wit there player running away with it and leads to KDB nearly slotting if JOB wasn`t so aware... these same 2 players pass up good positions week after week! Not good enough, Harrison and Doucoure need to go.....

I thought Harrison has had a decent first. Carrying on his recent form. He’s got a great first touch but you need more than a nice haircut and a great first touch.

 

[mahermi1]

Doucoure and Harrison improved. Broja, well he's on the pitch

Agree totally on all three, feel we would get more out of Beto, 60 mins Charly for Doucoure please.

 

[PeregrineT]

Once again we look at a team in the top 5 and go "is this all?". We have now played 1,2,3, and 5 with this squad and its felt for the taking.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Try telling Moyes.

Would love to and I don`t get paid £5m a year, why is he being so stubborn with these 2? I don`t see the attraction, at least pick players that are guaranteed to be here next season....

 

[banno]

Not too shabby a half so far. I know we have conceded possession but we have had some impressive passage of plays. Not many chances for either team but we have been closest. Think a ball carrier like Alcarez might cause them a problem or 2

 

[Zatara]

If results stay the same but we win, we'd be 3pts off 11th.

Will Broja turn into prime Batistuta ?

 

[blueblueskies]

Thought Mykolenko had an excellent half

 

[DanEFC92]

Feel a bit old man shouting at clouds at these youtubers on the pitch.

Modern football pish

We haven`t played well but we have been workman like, which is all you can be with players like Doucoure and Harrison in the team that is all you are going to get, they don`t offer anything else. 4 or 5 times those 2 players have got in to good positions in the box and got absolutely nothing to show from them.

Better players get better outcomes from them positions.... one argument about starting Doucoure over Alcaraz is because of the press, which is absolute crap, Alcaraz will give you that press plus much much more when in possession.

You simply can't have been watching that first half. Doucoure has been fine, and Harrison has carried on from his Forest performance.

I thought Harrison has had a decent first. Carrying on his recent form. He’s got a great first touch but you need more than a nice haircut and a great first touch.

Shift NDaiye to the right, McNeil for Harrion LM, Alcaraz replaces Doucoure and I`d have liked to see Chermiti for an extended period. Broja keeps proving he isn`t worth spending money on but to his defence he has Doucoure and Harrison supplying him (or not!)
