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

[A hayes]

Hate Monday night football win this play Sunday's a bit more bearable Mr Moyes be brave,beat this lot might get Europe.

 

[McCallsVolley]

Where is the weakness thats the thing

Pep has now prioritised tall, physical, quick, ball players as opposed to ball players. With Semenyo, Haaland, O Reilly (massive FBs who can ghost in), Gvardiol and has the pick of the crop most years. How do you beat it?

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

Again, did the season finish?

Yes it has.

It's just an illusion or maybe a delusion that we would make 6th. Now maybe if we had a proper goalscorer it might have been different.

I think we can win this one.

That Arsenal result and the manner of it was impressive and has piled the pressure on City. They know they have tougher games than Arsenal on the run in and Everton, Bournemouth, Chelsea and Villa are tough games.

They know if they fall at the first of these fences it's over. Meantime the pressure on us to get Europe has reduced - and that can work to liberate us.

Going for 2-1 or 2-0 Everton.

 

[Cels]

It ain't over till the fat lady sings... Europe is still on for us.

He will probably go for miserable and hopeless 0-1 then for feisty 1-4 or 2-5…

Oh no, can’t believe we’d take a -1 goal difference than get absolutely battered

 

[blue1948]

Yes it has.

Ask the players

 

[Juissi]

Ideally it would be the game to go cautious but now you can’t because you blew the opportunities to get the points the last three weeks.

I get your point, but City need a must win as well, so our best chance of winning and frustrating them is to set up with defence first. That can be done in plenty of ways too, from parking the bus to a fairly active mid block.

 

[Moomin]

Will we be above or less than 30% possession for this game?

 

[dockroad]

Literally hundreds and hundreds of tickets available. A combination of crap ko time and the inevitable defeat ?

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Like the West Ham game all the pressure is on the opposition, got to use that.
