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

[Armaghtoffee]

That little bubble we had has burst hasn't it .

Spurs away and then the best team in the world Man City!!??!!

Perspective please. Should have taken at least a point at WHL and competed strongly tonight and at 80 mins a smash and grab was a potential.

We are showing the very same fight as we did with the 4 wins, just lack of quality.

The rest of them still have Spurs and City remember.

Behave score last game - dodgy VAR decision

Come on . You cant class goals that are not given as given .

Better side by side would be the Rodri no call.

Calvert Lewin has to stick that chance ... different ball game then ... how many sitters can one man miss .... Patterson man of the match ... should've taken gomez off at half time

Beaten by the better team.

Nothing we could’ve done about their first two - and the third was a stroke of bad luck. Pickford is usually impeccable under pressure like that so won’t hold it against him.

Never any shame in that, especially when the lesser team puts in a real shift. Everton did.

Most worrying thing for me is Calvert-Lewin being completely incapable of finishing his chances.

Wolves suddenly becomes more important now.

A 3rd defeat on the bounce and inevitably the negativity will start creeping in again, as much as Dyche claims it won't happen..

 

[MisterJ]

That simple
And we still had the best chance between their second and third so almost equalised against all odds

No shame in the last two performances, on to wolves

Agree, onto the next one

Gonna be tough at Wolves on Saturday

It is, but no excuses now. We’ve gone out of the cup to a side no better than us, and lost twice competitively to two sides better than us. We’ve had our free pass, so to speak. Points required now.

You can't really , you can pretend to not lose momentum but ultimately every loss is start again . Morale can be worked on I agree to an extent

There are also different types of losses. We've been beaten by the best team in the world after being right in the game right until the last 5 mins, and mostly dominated a top 4 contender away from home and were absurdly unlucky not to get something.

If we get 1 point from our next 3 I can accept there may be something deeper. But no reasonable person can seriously tell me after the last couple of games they're suddenly panicking.

Saturday against Wolves will be a key game.

Fulham we're flying to be fair, spurs turning the corner and everyone new city would turn into brazil 1970 after their little break in the sun.

Couple of freak results for Fulham think they've been beaten before for about 10 games and two after . But they come into the games with poorer form than uw

Hell get one and will hopefully be flying from there

He slotted it well so your statement is rubbish.

We’ll agree to disagree. We’ve only deserved to lose one of the last three and that was tonight against the world champions.

No big deal.

Spurs had won their precious 2 games.
City won the World club less then a week ago and are the best side in Europe.

Form not last game . Form is a few games 5 for example
