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

I know mate same, feel it in the pit of my stomach, if someone said at half time we would draw the game 3-3 we would have taken it but just feels so frustrating how it’s ended. 3 games in a row conceding in the last minute is sickening

Absolutely. The type of results you just can't get your system until the next game and it keeps happening again and again.

When you blow a 3-1 lead at home with only 10 mins plus injury time to play…think people are more than entitled to be fuming, no matter who the opposition is. Saying ‘but it’s City’ is a lazy excuse (not saying you’re saying that specifically but you get what I mean)

With every respect, that's utter drivel, mate. If we concede 2 to an undeniably great team in the first or middle 15 minutes it's not unreasonable, but in the last 15 minutes of played time it's 'inexcusable' ??? We've stood toe to toe, exchanging punches with the best or second best in this league and emerged with a draw, and that's inexcusable in your opinion? Well, in my opinion it's a huge credit to the club, manager, and team. COYB!!!!

Another painful last minute sickener at home. Didn’t deserve that. Would have took a draw before kick off but a gutting manner to throw it away.

Haven’t seen any of it back yet, but conceding the 2nd so quickly after going 2 up. Criminal.

It’s drivel that we factually blew a 2 goal lead going into the 82nd minute?

 

[Daytripper]

Christ, were clutching at straws here aren't we.

I dont think when we resigned coleman we thought he'd be as injury prone as he has been

Mate Hes been finished for a while. I’m not clutching at straws at all, right back has been a clear issue for ages and it costs us in games. He doesn’t play except for Ireland so what was the point? Hes offering zero on the pitch.

 

[Bluewolf]

That Haaland goal killed us - braindead

That got citys back into it and made all of us go "here we go again"

 

[spence03]

They were silly, added extra time on but it was some strike.

2 worldies and 1 horrendous goal to concede.

Doku shushing fans as well? Mate we've just cost you the title.

I was really bothered who won the league till Doku did that, now I'm all in on Arsenal.

We had to bring in 9 players in the summer on a limited budget. Just to have a actual squad.

Resigning gana, coleman and keane was a necessity

I get so angry because CLEARLY we have talent in the squad, it’s just always so mismanaged and squandered. I just wish we could be unshackled for 90 minutes each game, like we were in the second half before the great collapse. We lack mentality in the squad, it comes from the top down.

It's all hindsight really. We were terrible first half Moyes said that. He didn't send them out there to be like that (in my opinion) and in his words. Equally if we played wide open we may have got smashed. At 3/1 we should have seen it out so it's frustrating but at least we saw a proper match and not another boring contest.

'Blew' is an emotive and vague term. They scored 3 and we scored 3 in about 100 minutes. Unless you can point to specific howlers, then there was no 'blew' about it. We go up their end and shoot, they come up our end and shoot. That's football- don't know if you've ever heard of it. Their equaliser was a top quality goal in whatever league and whatever era. Again, be proud of our lads and club that we've done so well.

 

[Bilko]

Atmosphere was superb tonight, went toe to toe with arguably best side in league.
Obviously disappointed at the end. But really the Haaland goal was criminal.
I went with Rohl as motm, city's was the ref !.

Lad…we blew a 3-1 lead there is no getting around it I’m sorry

 

[Vedder]

Anybody know when the last time we got a pen against one the sky's favorites??
How that is not given..he doesn't look once in the direction of the ball

 

[f.t.r.s]

Sick at the result , however...

We pushed a very good team to the limit...
If our star player hadn't forgot his shooting boots we win that game...
Our centre backs switch on for the haaland goal we win...
Two worldies from doku...

Should have had a pen on rohl, not buying the not in play bs, if merlin caught him in the face in retaliation would they not have sent him off?
