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

[Mikey O]

Keane MOTM for Man City. Incredible.

I think it might be irony

 

[Buzz Lightyear]

If Moyes sees Keane going CB till the end of the season or when Tarky is back I might just swerve the rest of the games.... we will be going on a bad run.

Good we don’t need the likes of you

 

[Blue Roo]

That told a lot about what needs to happens before next season

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

As a person, I’m sure he’s fine. But I can honestly say I’ve not once rated Keane as a footballer. Each occasion proves why even further.

 

[LABlue2]

Defense was good for first 60 min
Ndiaye totally ineffective
Broja a waste of space
Attacking subs didn’t impact game much
Keane..honking performance, probably dizzy from being turned inside out 16 times by Marmoush

 

[Eggs]

….game turned with Tarkowski injury, ahead of that we looked quite comfortable but we clearly struggled afterwards.

A pity the Branthwaite chance didn’t go in. Thought our best performers were our defenders, I’ll go for O’Brien as MoM but it could’ve been any of the back four.

 

[HTCHERO]

Keane makes you realise how good Tarks is, and how much we need him.

Myko was brilliant today, but Broja and Alcaraz should be sent back in May.

Broja 100% and Alcaraz needs to really pick it up as I'm leaning towards sending him back

 

[irishtony1878]

Considering all the hype about it being close to the last game at Goodison, all the clamour for tickets etc.
The crowd were woeful today, we were still in the game upto the 85th minute.
No atmosphere or support, crap today.

Nothing we didn't know Tarks and Gana crucial to us, Keane is a calamity and we still badly lack cutting edge, pace and creation. City obviously have all three of the latter in abundance and their bench was the difference. Needs addressing in the summer..

 

[Stephen Gibson]

The injury to Tarkowski & the yellow for Gana changed the game. Gana stopped close up hustling for fear of the red & City took over & could move forward faster. Keane was a ridiculous choice. Everyone was thinking the same. Move Jake to centre & bring on a right back, probably Patterson.
The 3 subs together didn't work at all. Charlie was poor. Poor passing & left Myko with 2 to mark for the first goal. I'm getting less convinced by him as each game goes. Still would like to see him in the 10 role though rather than the wings. Dwight & Tim offered little.
Thought Harrison had a better game. Lost his energy when he went off. Beto didn't really do anything.
Thought Myko had an excellent game until some of his teammates let him down. His long passing was strong today.

 

[brownmola]

There's no decision needed on Broja. He's not good enough.

Agreed

 

[mahermi1]

I understand needing to see Broja play to make a decision on him especially with nothing in jeopardy but if Beto starts I think we score and win.

That breakaway, Broja ran like he was running through treacle, Beto would have been away there, Broja a big no for me, injuries, not enough pace or determination or not good enough in the air or not enough strength. Would be amazed if Moyes can not see that.

 

[ForeverEverton]

Moyes, as good as he has been this season cost us that game today, went full on Dyche.... Dyche like subs and had absolutely nothing up front.

We were just sat in waiting to be beaten... and that happened.

Quite how michael Keane is still getting on the pitch in 2025, it`s scandalous!

Moyes at fault for me....

 

[kleew]

For me MOTM between Garner and Gueye. Both solid in the mid.

As a person, I’m sure he’s fine. But I can honestly say I’ve not once rated Keane as a footballer. Each occasion proves why even further.

He's hardly played out of contract so why fetch him on when there was obvious alternatives?
We lost total control at the back when he came on ...
