Whats his odds for the sack now?
Odds on

Sadly this ‘performance’ may grant him a few more months.

Good Everton performance, and - sorry for this view but it's honestly what I think - it's also a good result.

A good day.

Moise is showing how good he's going to be when he's up to speed

THE LEAGUE TABLE DOES NOT LIE.

RELEGATION BATTLE

Bye bye Silva

Come on lads, surely you didn’t only discover Everton yesterday? Of course this was going to be a “plucky Everton performance” that still ends up in at least a -2 goal defeat.

Next we’ll play a team that “if we keep playing like that, we’ll beat easily”, but we won’t play like that.

EVER

Come on. The first one: Frozen on the line when the ball was played inside the 6yds box. Second doesn't even need to be discussed.

This-one wasn't his fault.

First one is a typical world class ball by De Bruyne and the second is a good strike. I'd like him to save it but it isn't an error either.

I'd happily watch us play like this and lose every game

Silva the man

Happy is lose to city, they are a superb side. We have been in the game. If we play like this every week we are challenging the top 6

 

[Lob]

Decent performance is meaningless to me when you miss loads of chances and get beat 3 - 1 regardless of playing the league champions.

 

[R.Reddington]

Bye bye Silva

I wish but he wont get sacked anytime soon

 

[tsubaki]

that was a great ball by Davies

 

[welshtoffee]

Bye bye Silva

Please Please be true.

Who was it that said they could see us getting a result at half time???

Who was it who said they couldn't see City scoring here? Oh right, you.

 

[OnlyBlueWillDo]

Dcl should have a hat trick and Mina should have at least 2. Just one of them as usual.

Yep, we have squandered a few chances as per.

 

[captainvindaloo]

Oh well. At least we can call it a "respectable" loss and not a total shameful humiliation (as has occurred in other games this season).

If only they could pull this sort of performance against the bottom feeder clubs. That is where it really matters. Stuff the top 6. Start performing against the rest!
