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

[edge]

Outclassed by a far better team, not helped by the only fella on the planet who thought playing 442 with Rooney and snides as a midfield pairing was a good idea.
Actually glad that we only got beat by 3-1.
City are some team , hats off to them best team for years.

Hope his wife is getting ratted by the milkman

I did want to see him do well but he has lived up to his reputation. Regardless of what he does in the summer it's hard to see how he can improve us beyond a top half finish.

What he does in the summer? What he does going back to Dubai is none of our concern.

Hope so but it's not yet a certainty.

Our midfield is the most static easy to play against midfield in the league.....most probably.
Schnides gets nowhere near a player, Davies has a turn like the titanic, Gana wins the ball but usually gives it back, Rooney unless he has time and space is not up to it and all of them apart from when Rooney gets the time and space are useless at passing. We need more craft. A couple of Artetas would do nicely or give Vlasic & Beni more time on the pitch this season, and Lookman next season. Without Allardyce in charge.

Pathetic, spineless display, who settles for a loss right after getting a goal back?

Exactly mate, Allardyce was more worried about Man City scoring again than us having a proper go.

 

[banno]

How long would you have bood for mate so the board got yiur message?? Genuinely interested

I would say 90 mins plus injury time. He would do that even if we were winning lol

 

[ProZ]

A higher possession percentage has never been recorded in premier league history

 

[Connor]

Hope so but it's not yet a certainty.

Mate, it’s a certainty

 

[ADT]

disgraceful

The main mentality of 99% of British managers. That's why there is not too many in the PL.

 

[COYBL25]

Mate, it’s a certainty

I`m hearing the same from my journo mate

 

[Connor]

I`m hearing the same from my journo mate

If it wasn’t already cemented, this game and next week will certainly do it

 

[Rollo Tomassi]

disgraceful

At least we won the 2nd half though, right lads

I expected City to score a bucket load after that first 30 mins, Sam set us up tactically and mentally wrong. If you catch his pre match talk he’s already shat his self.

Playing Rooney was dangerous, but to play him alongside Morgan was laughable.
