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

[BlueToff]

We were lucky not to be on the end of a Watford scoreline honestly

Yet we were unlucky not to score four...

£42 × 2 =shocking ,a few guys with young kids near me(kids couldn,'t see a thing) left a half time,club really shouldn,'t be selling these seats to parents with young kids,embarassing !!!

 

[BlueToff]

A shocking piece of refereeing. Where was the VAR?

De Bruyne was a proper snide today. Always moaning always diving. As if we aren't allowed to tackle him.

VAR has no jurisdiction over free-kicks, (I know, mental).

Not even if it directly leads to a goal??

Crazy that

Crazy that

It's penalties, red cards, offsides and handballs.

I know, crazy.

 

[Groucho]

Not well enough. Home losses are never ok.

Good point

 

[deipnosophist]

I didn’t watch the game but am made up we only lost by 2 goals; I feared a drubbing was in store.

Anyway: NSNO, and all that...

Whats the point in praising them for showing a bit of fight against city ?
Its the minimum requirement. It should be expected. whats the point if you show nothing against Bournemouth and sheff utd but get up for it against the champions under the lights at goodison ?

When you lose 3-1 and actually feel like it's one of your better performances this season. That's Everton that.

Sign of a good team is playing badly and winning what would playing well and getting beat suggest?

Exactly ....wow ...we tried ( and still got beat by 2 goals against the champs ) We are 15th after THAT run of favorable fixtures ! Embarrassing ......
Mid table at best ...... Season is over after cup runs.....

Props to the one lady in a sea of animals...

Anyhow... I don't trust this side; too inconsistent. As far as I'm concerned they played decent because we were the last match of the day and all eyes were on them, plus it was City. I don't trust them, at all, and fully expect another shitshow against Burnley....it's our MO.

 

[Pete Campbell]

Gylfi or Seamus our best I thought.

 

[Frang]

Can't believe I saying this. Sniderat probly our best player

We are truly that bad!

It is where the whole thing falls down.

A goal can come about from a wrongly awarded corner kick or throw in and nowt can be done about it.

Yet if a fellow’s big toe is adjudged to be in an “offside” position goals are being struck off on a weekly basis.

I voted for Moise Kean....he showed plenty when he came on.
