expected defeat by Mosh...as is the next game against Watford... club is rotten from the top...cut off the snake's head and start again.

The RS can't say that we didn't try.

But they will.

We tried, but we just weren't good enough.

Which is nice.....

 

[Berenger]

Tbf they’d lost 3 of their last 5 away.

My Dad’s a city fan so I know everything there is to know about them lol. Point he would end up with is that Chelsea are far better than us and Leicester beat them when they were missing top players.

 

[Ring master]

Hope we never find ourselves in a situation where we want our team to lose ever again TBH

I never find myself in that,as i always want them to win,dont care about other teams or if a win helps someone else

 

[kenada_blue]

Hopefully we keep the same system. Davies and Kenny done enough to keep their places.

Doesn't really matter until we don't concede from setpieces from now until the end of the season

 

[deipnosophist]

You are right. They are lionhearted warriors.

I don't think I can bear being here any longer. Too many 'fans' glorifying in our defeat. Probably best to find a site less populated with small-minded so-called Evertonians.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

 

[PhilM]

Best we’ve played in a while so I’m taking it as a positive. In reality, we weren’t good enough.

 

[Methuselah]

This game was a mirror image of our season. Goal conceded to a set-piece, only one shot on target at the other end. If Silva continues with this zonal marking then he has to go. He is either stubborn or clueless.

 

[IV(AC)]

What the hell was Silva thinking when he dropped Davies deeper to accommodate Sigurdsson? Up until that point, he'd been our most effective player and pressed their defence brilliantly. Completely lost that energy with that substitution. What a div.

Davies could be seen mouthing ‘wtf’ and going red when Sig came on and gave him his instructions...

 

[Jreverton1]

You are right. They are lionhearted warriors.

I'm just saying they have played far worse against poorer opposition. We should be annoyed with the other results not this one.

Watford will milk set pieces. They will score a few! Silva OUT!

 

[OneTrueLegend]

Another defeat, but I didn't expect anything less, saw the first goal was a set piece, so fairly standard for us to concede from that.
Hopefully we get something out the next game

Best of both worlds really, much better performance on our part, largely due to the change in formation but City got what they needed to go top. City though need to stop being like the Arsenal sides from 10-12 years ago in trying to walk goals in, made it somewhat easy to defend at times
