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

[Toffe3m4n]

Terrible goal to concede - both in the manner and timing. They'll come out in the second half a bit more relaxed now.. we'd been trying to exploit their 'antsy'-ness and now we've just handed them a reprieve.

 

[eurosrees]

17 set piece goals conceded in 30 games now, trousers.

Bye bye silva you useless stubborn gobshite

 

[Kev The Rat]

Come on city hit 4 or 5 to build your confidence

 

[chrissyjack]

Give it up lad.

I'm just saying , lad . Kopites will be fuming , mind

 

[john jako]

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

There’s a reason he never made it at Chelsea and was in a relegated stoke side. Average

 

[Number_25]

Not all bad...

 

[mawders]

Ah, plucky everton. Only 1-0 down

Koff. How many effing times are we going to concede from set pieces? Get a new effing defensive coach

 

[II McColl II]

Are our players honestly thick?

What do we love to do give away pointless free kicks, what else do we love to do concede from set pieces.

Last minute of the half where we've done a half decent job another player joins the clown club of completely uneeded desperation tackles and puts us in a position we've shown time and time again we can't defend for our lives.

I give up

 

[irishtony1878]

Not arsed, but how maddening is it to see the same goal against us week after week?
Someone has already posted this, but whoever looks after the defending needs to be sacked now.

 

[Dubai Blue]

How good are thise pizza reviews!?!

Haha glad someone got it. Yeah they're awesome. See him give 0.0 to a place

 

[OnlyBlueWillDo]

Set piece again...give me strength.

[Nyhus]

If we are going to loose, why did they have to make it a good, competative half, making me belive we might get something from this. Its the hope that kills me.

 

[CRIMHEAD]

Of course we deserved that, we've generated few chances, played decent D, but they've been the better side.

At some point, someone needs to make a play on a set piece. It's sitting on the 12, both CBs are right there, no one goes up for it.
