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

[Azza]

Hahahaha

 

[Nymzee]

Predictable BUT we had a good half, happy enough with that compared to the last few games.

 

[gonetomorrow]

Typical. Oh well at least we've put up a good show so far.

 

[longers]

Lets be honest, playing well but losing by only 1 goal is the best outcome possible

 

[Kev The Rat]

Get in city

 

[Lob]

Silva needs sacking for this set piece embarrassment alone. He hasnt been able to fix a simple but extremely damaging problem in 25 games which is absolutely amateur and unacceptable from any Manager on the planet.

Sick to death of him.

 

[lungo]

Of course. New that was coming right before halftime when Gueye failed.

Free kicks will be the death of Little Marco. That's 15+ conceded in all matches this season, maybe two scored.

If you can't fix that, than you are a horrible coach. Bottom line.

Little Marco the freekick genius! Funny how Keane looks like a newborn after every freekick.

 

[when i score we riot]

We used to be good at this crap. Remember how commentators would say we are good at set pieces? Joke, really. Joke!

 

[KaiserEFC]

At this point I’d take a 4 yard kick at an open goal over a set piece when we’re level/winning/just need to hold out.

 

[kiss the crest]

Didn’t deserve that, thought Davies has played really well

 

[deipnosophist]

I am not in the least pissed off...but wasn't that just so 'Everton that'.
We really do support a team of losers.

 

[MikeH72]

Glad we played Zouma tonight.

 

[ToffeeTim]

How people rate Zouma is beyond me. He is the set play problem. He is atrocious.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

I wry smirk appeared on my face as that goal went in, I must admit.

 

[Pittsburgh Footy]

I stated to my son this is exactly where Wolves had their free kick......then same result .....

I was thinking the same thing. It was also late in the half. And a needless free kick to give away, just like Wolves

Good god Everton

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Can we stop giving free kicks away around our box ffs. Especially right on half time

Free kicks are part of football.

Maybe blame the manager for being incapable of coaching our side in defending any ball into the box.
