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

[Huyton Layne]

Why weren't we after 2 CBs this summer? Maybe options with pace.

 

[FOXINPEACE]

What's the consensus of Pickford on here? Does anybody rate him highly?

 

[Azza]

Sitting with some esteemed company near the bottom of the table.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Decent performance.

Good to see an effort being made to get Richarlison back on the left - he did well on the right (zinchenko....) but for me, he has to be on the left.

A shame we can't see that level of intensity/effort against the lesser sides.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Not good enough.

We only carried a threat because we were shambolic defensively.

It's another home loss and it's unacceptable. City were there for the taking and we were weak with a totally useless goalkeeper who is as daft as he is arrogant.

At least weve watched the champions tonight. These will piss the league. Nothing else to take from it.

I thought City were there for the taking. Norwich showed what you can do that defence away from home.

 

[tsubaki]

We already play too heavily down the wings when teams play defensively against us. Last thing we need is to have to center forwards that encourage more crossing play.

Not sure that we would - if anything he'd probably play more centrally because there would be more than one person making a run.

 

[f.t.r.s]

Keane poor losing Jesus for the first and third
Pickford poor for the second and a shambles at the end,
Silva baffling taking iwobin off before sigurdsson
Other than that could of been worse

Er... They played at lunch time today.

Does anyone even think hes average?
Hes poor

 

[Steve Wigan]

Put Gomes back in the starting XI, drop Iceland and put Kean there instead and we will smash someone.

Gomes is injured.

 

[Huyton Layne]

3rd worst goal difference in the league

 

[JimmyJeffers]

The way I see it as well mate. We showed a bit more passion, but City still carved us open too often for my liking.

Can see city dropping a fair few points between now and Christmas. I’ve resigned myself to the inevitable...

 

[sageyefc]

Stolen from TEF (again)

Hmm someone else used to post them head pictures aswell, can't be though because he was banned

 

[LEONARD]

We WILL be in the bottom 3, after losing to Burnley next week.
