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

[Cels]

Great run up the wing by Godfrey and the ball ends up back with Keane FFS.

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Just too easy for City this.

 

[DOMNOLAN]

Tom Davies what are you doing there?

Looking for the pass to sig who actively moves out of space so there’s a player between the ball and him...

 

[atypicalusername]

Crucial interception by Davies then. Intelligent positional sense that

 

[Methuselah]

No main striker on the pitch. We have parked the bus, only a matter of time.

 

[Ladda]

Only 24% possession at home.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

This hasn’t been that bad. Davies is trying to make things happen and doucoure and Godfrey have been good.

If only we had DCL up top. Keeping the ball is not Richy’s strength but he is doing ok.

 

[number4.]

gotta love Pickford telling the lads to relax and calm down

 

[miami]

Here’s a thought.

We obviously aren’t good enough to defend for 90 mins against them.

Maybe play with a bit of energy, tempo and enthusiasm instead of setting up like we are just waiting for them to score so we can go further into our shells.
So sick of watching this boring, negative crap.

Exactly

 

[Shibbywiggles]

One goal at home this year and no strikers on the pitch. Pathetic management at all levels of the club

Our top striker is injured and we’ve replaced him with the lad who starts as nine for Brazil mate

 

[MockBu4]

nice block there

 

[BlueStevie35]

don’t watch then lad

Stop crying Matty, people are entitled to their opinions

 

[Jonte]

Keane should have stepped up there

 

[Lloydystark]

Godfrey, Digne, DCL, Richy and maybe a couple of the other lads who could play at the top level will not put up with this for much longer.
I can see quite a few pushing for moves come the summer.

They could join spurs and play even more negative

 

[Jim Hopper]

Only 24% possession at home.

It was worse against Fulham.
