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

[TyphooToffee]

I wonder what the odds of 1-1 at half time were after City scored.

 

[twoblue]

If we had performed like this against villa, palace, sheff Utd and bournmouth we’d be 12pts better off

 

[Paul Rideout]

I’d put on Tosun or Kean for the invisible Icelander.

I hope he now scores a hatty and runs the show in the second half

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Nice half once we kicked on.

 

[mahermi1]

Great chip from Coleman.

Got absolutely no problem with DCL making 100% sure. The lad gets pelters for not being ruthless enough - well that’s ruthlessness.

Agree with you but I was really worried DCL had strayed off side during the build up there, awfully relieved for us and him, that he wasn't.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Not starting a fit Iwobi is a fireable offense at this point

 

[EvertonCJ]

Not cheerring them on, just concerned that they'll lose points here.

As it stands, it's Liverpool's title tonight, this early...and we'll have contributed to it.

Behave David. How many games to play?

 

[Efctrueblue]

Not too bad performance first half. Our CB’s still worry me, they leave too much space and dont mark tight enough. Rest of the team has been good, even schneiderlin!!

 

[davek]

This point will be insignificant to us at the end of the season. Especially when we drop points to Burnley next week. But we’ll essentially hand the kopites the title and blues seem to be made up with this scenario. Baffling. Get the Silvas and Aguero on and beat us good and proper Pep.

It's over for City if they dont. 7/8 point lead wont be squandered even by Liverpool this time. They wont throw a third title away.

This has to end in three points to City or it's curtains on their season...then we go back to failing aginst utter rubbish in following weeks.

Me too ! It’s the team more than anyone !if he knows he’s onside he has to make sure it goes in !

It was on the goal line when he headed it in mate.

 

[Deleted member 38674]

That’s about the best I would have hoped for.

Defensively, we’ve not been great, I actually think Delph and Schneids are doing well. Everything coming down Digne’s side and Mina is a liability. City have quality and will punish us if we continue to be as sloppy at the back.

Going forward, much better. Sigurdsson making more of an impact, Rico and DCL bright. Wobes hasn’t been too sharp but still early days.

COYB big 2nd half!

If Liverpool go 7/8 points clear tonight , it's over.

 

[Lelouch]

Defended well, Bit of luck on our side with City missing some easy chances.
WHAT IS GYLFI DOING FOR THAT LONG BALL INTO HIM, HEAD IT YOU DONUT

 

[TGW89]

Liverpool certain to be champions & Everton safe / winners vs a top-6 team / respectability restored
Liverpool not so certain to be champs & Everton in a dogfight

Absolute no brainer which one I'd pick.

 

[Frang]

expecting their real first team to come straight on here

b.silva and aguero, even with d.silva
