Match Thread Manchester City v Everton - Team Prediction, Waffle, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Joey66]

Grealish came on there. A player with a purchase price is excess of the entire Everton starting XI.

Like whatever, but it's simply obscene that Everton and Forest are the league's concern.

Yet there is hardly a peep from anyone as to how completely perverse and corrupted this 'competition' is.

What a pointless fixture. Not worth the energy expended

Thats FFP for you - they have a date to reprimand them - the 12th of never ..... Mr Masters .....

It was all painfully obviously, from the Gana booking to the inevitable Haaland brace. Oh well, 4 points off Luton today having played a game extra and needing to visit them still. Bad times.

One point. One point. Might be 4 if they win the game in hand, but that’s not a given

 

[blindbert]

Thought every player put in a shift. Gave MOTM to Tarkowski.

 

[RomanReigns]

Did lescott just call Mykolenko, Yarmalenko

Someone should clip that and send it to Joey Barton

 

[Mr Happy]

No disgrace that result. Bit toothless as usual but avoided a cricket score. Palace game is massive now

 

[Bryan+]

See the cheats won again eh. Oh no right that’s us.

 

[bluejohn66]

Zero corners today, we ain't scoring without them !!

 

[LEONARD]

Nothing to see here.

Move along please.

 

[BlueTX]

Seems a replay of the last match with the RS. Defend incredibly well, concede on a moment's lapse in 70+ minutes and give up a second on a counter after pushing for an equalizer. 4 goals conceded (12.5% of total given all PL season) on 9 shots on target against the two best PL squads. Everton could generate only 1 on target each match.

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Disappointing in the end Blues, but I thought the work rate was impressive

City are just better

Need to get some points on the board ASAP, but no shame in that score line

 

[Lapeno77]

One point. One point. Might be 4 if they win the game in hand, but that’s not a given

Quite right. Mason Holgate masterclass incoming

 

[lljh23]

Brainwaithe should have just pulled Haaland’s pants down when he was through on goal like what happened to the Villa striker a few years back

He probably will still score with his pants down

 

[tommytowne]

We did okay.

Never expected anything from this game but we didn't get battered.

Just hope we don't find ourselves cut adrift after the rest of this weekend's games, and of course fingers crossed for good news from the result of our appeal next week.

Not playing until 2000 a week Monday.
We can only hope and pray results around us are favourable otherwise your scenario about being cut adrift will materialise.

Playing Man City nowadays is pointless. Miss the good old days when a frustrated Mancini was trying to start a scrap with Moyes…

 

[Dixieslaces]

Actually hard to take that, discipline and shape in defence, midfield not as over ran as expected, toothless in attack as expected, but overall they had, what, 3 on target, with near 250 million off the bench and arguably best team in the world right now.

We certainly didn't get outplayed.

Gotta find a solution for goals though, hope DCL turns it around or Beto or Chermiti and Dobbin start. Can't see it with DCL but we gotta hope.

Amazing that they have that off the bench and we overspent by 19.5 Million, crazy, messed up football.
