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

2-1 and it gets dodgy for them

We won’t touch the football til the 60th minute mert.

 

[Zatara]

Patterson literally headed the ball to city’s feet for their second and you’ve praised him for having a great game.

Haaland scored with a header which should have been stopped

 

[Steve EFC]

Not just today, for the majority of the last 40 years, today when you see teams going for silverware it reminds us we are a nothing club never to be competing again for the next 40 years and living in those Kopite tits across the City shadow.... We will never be in a position to compete with them on any level....

Turn it in.
We aren’t a nothing club. Regarding silverware, things/circumstances change.
Sometimes things have to get worse before they get better.

Take DCL and McNeill off, the game has gone so keep them safe for the Wolves and Bournemouth games.

 

[Diogenes the Cynic]

Our version involves a full implode and losing 4-0 instead of a comeback.

Proper Hollywood script.

Unless it's Rodney March, Mike Summerbee and UWE Rosler then I don't think it will make the slightest bit of difference. In fact I think Rodney would fancy it against Mase the Ace.

I’m open to any other thoughts on what might change this game.

The good choices aren’t exactly laid out for our perusal.

Davanti Tyres.

We haven't played poorly, tbh. City just have too much quality across the board. Half of their bench would start for us today

Only half?

 

[II McColl II]

Pickford shocker on the 2nd and wonder goal for the 1st.

Holgate looking like Bambi, Iwobi passing like Tom Davies.

Least we've got 2 more games to try and survive.

How good have you been in those years?

I'm 43 and have basically been a real life Everton since I saw us win the FA Cup in 95.

FA Cup being the only highlight, off the back of a season we were nearly relegated.....

 

[edge]

Need an early goal to get back into this.

 

[MrD]

I knew not to watch this. Went to Lidl instead. I think we all knew this game would be a heavy defeat.

 

[teppic]

Mina, Dominic and McNeil off, ready for the proper games coming up.

I mean we shouldn’t have midfielders standing on the edge of our six yard box. That’s not what tracking a run is. Gundogan was very clever and essentially playing the role of a striker in that move. Got tight to the centre back and trusted his ability with his back to goal. It’s just genius.

I’m not just talking about the goal, he’s done it about 4/5 other times.
