Match Thread Everton 3-3 Manchester City Monday 4th May 20.00

Regardless of how this ends up, this is not a sustainable way of playing football and won't help us improve as a club.

What is our game plan, then? It looks to me like we were planning to defend deep and try and hit them on the break despite having nobody who can run quicker than a canter.

We’re pressing quite aggressively when they’re in their half, it’s just getting them into that half that’s been the problem

They are passing around like they have double the amount of players on the pitch. This is ridiculous just letting them have the ball and hoping to catch them in the break it’s inevitable they will score yes we’re doing a good job preventing chances but they only need one.

Luckily was ushered back into the shed. Ted just sat there gawping at it

Thanks mate.
Keep us updated

Feels like the aim is to “frustrate” them but the problem is that they don’t get frustrated and are essentially robots that will just keep passing the ball for as long as it takes to wear you down.

Moyes doing what he always has done and instilled fear into them because a certain badge has come to town.

Sh!ithouse of a man

I bet the city forum are bemoaning their wasteful start and saying this has got smash and grab written all over it.

Pickford’s distribution….
*Shakes head

 

[Shibbywiggles]

I think it’s exactly his game plan. 11 men behind the ball and try to nick a goal on the break or from a set piece.

I don’t think it’s quite that extremely negative but also it’s not like we can outplay them in an open game is it?

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Our limitations have really shown themselves the first 20.
