Match Thread Everton v Manchester City 31st March KO 17:30

[sageyefc]

A pairing of Rooney and schneirderfraud, possibly the Slowest midfield the prem has ever seen. RIP Everton

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Ederson, Walker, Kompany (C), Otamendi, Laporte, Fernandinho, Silva, De Bruyne, Sane, Sterling, Jesus

 

[carolinablue232]

Just saw the lineup. Is this one of those just so crazy it might work things or is Sam taking the piss here?

 

[ToffeeTim]

442 against city with no mobility in midfield.

Interesting.

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Silva, De Bruyne and Fernandinho against Rooney and Schneiderlin, hahahahahahahahaha

 

[Kenshin]

Ederson, Walker, Kompany (C), Otamendi, Laporte, Fernandinho, Silva, De Bruyne, Sane, Sterling, Jesus

Yes Jesus we are getting battered tonight

 

[Eggs]

Ederson, Walker, Kompany (C), Otamendi, Laporte, Fernandinho, Silva, De Bruyne, Sane, Sterling, Jesus

..I presume that wasn’t an exclamation at the end.

 

[cromofo]

what is that team

 

[Barnfred 55]

DCL is up front with Tosun...looks like 4-4-2

You may have the personnel correct Ice but I very much doubt that formation. DCL will be wide left. What's he rest of the team?

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

Well any pre match optimism I had goes in one fell swoop with that waste of space getting a game.

 

[neil999]

Silva and de bruyne no chance with the dynamism/raw pace of schneid, roon and keaney

 

[Big Fat Sam]

I assume City will have Jesus, Sterling and De Bruyne off by the hour mark as the game will be long over by then.

 

[ADT]

Sees Everton team:
Ok 2 up front we might do something

Sees Man city team:
Optimism dies very quickly

 

[Saint Domingo]

Why are City playing their full team. Sake.

 

[FTY]

Expecting to see him 'fizz' plenty of passes directly to Fernando and De Bruyne, then struggle to chase back to tackle them.

He'll be pinging it a long way then considering Fernando plays in Turkey
