Match Thread Everton v Manchester City - Team Prediction, Match Report & MotM Poll

[loamy86]

Fancy our chances! 1-0 scrappy goal

 

[Marc bolan]

I agree there. We have to hit ‘em quick while the morale is low

I Think city winning world club championship will go along way in
Boosting there team moral just hope the hot weather & flight home
Benifits us ?

 

[Drico]

4-0 city. Loads of boos

A more realistic prediction than most on this thread.

Wolves is the game that will tell a tale in terms of what we can expect this season. City will simply confirm how limited and irrelevant we are in the great scheme of things.

 

[TyphooToffee]

They are not that good mate, this is no longer a throw away game.

In to these!

I'll just repeat part of James Garner's quote..

"We’re not afraid of anyone at the moment. We see ourselves beating pretty much anyone we play..."

I'm afraid this is one that Guardiola will have been eyeing up as the game they start to go on a long unbeaten run with. Before that World Club championship I'd have fancied us to get at least a point.

We've been unfortunate. The United game at home came after the shock of the points deduction and before that we were flying and would have swept United aside if it hadn't been for the emotion of the occasion.

I think City win this by a couple of goals.

 

[Tel001]

Single digits possession , 1-0 win ..

 

[GoldenToffee]

Haaland will be back won't he?

They're definitely a different proposition without De Bruyne but still obviously superior to us in all positions.

Can only expect an embarrassing home defeat here.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

Good show and a narrow loss is what I can see. Need to make sure we don’t get walloped and burst the progress

 

[Toffeelover]

8.15 kick off, madness. Flipping freezing then.

 

[blue in oxford]

bit like spurs will have a bit too much for us 2-0 city sadly

 

[knowing your history]

Lampard (somehow) got a draw v these 12 months ago when in horrendous run of form which deservedly got him the sack.

So if he's capable I don't see why this side playing with good spirit and some actually decent quality can't.

Will need to low block them to death and scramble something off a set piece but I dunno feels a bit like Arsenal at home last season to me.

1-1.

 

[PhilRegan]

Its either 0-1 dodgy var . Or 0-4 rollover.

No way we would be allowed to beat city if we wernt allowed to get a draw at spurs.

 

[JohnRoss23]

Its either 0-1 dodgy var . Or 0-4 rollover.

No way we would be allowed to beat city if we wernt allowed to get a draw at spurs.

If this thing is 0-0 past 65' Var will for sure come to the rescue shortly after

 

[daza_1973]

Apologies if already mentioned, but this could be our last boxing day game at Goodison ever. Coybb

 

[gonetomorrow]

It's not teams like City and Spurs we have to beat. Just make sure we tank the clubs around us.
