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

[Blue Willy]

They spend billions and lie about sponsorship and we get 10 points for spending a fraction over, and they call us cheats. Hope Arsenal win the league. Hate City almost as much ad the sh1te.

No, I am judging Man City by their deserved title as best team in the world. I 100% expected to lose in the same way I would expect any time in world football to lose to City.

When river plate win that trophy are they the best in the world ? If not then it doesn't hold up really

Defo 5. Villa, Liverpool, Palace, Man Utd and man city

Thanks, mate.

5 pens (none saved) and 2 own goals of the 25 total goals conceded through 19 matches.

City wanted it and needed it more than we did. Other teams have shown you can get at them this season but we never managed it tonight despite going in front. Far too easy for them.

 

[PhilRegan]

So 2 teams in the top 6 then before we played them . OK.

That's a very small window your giving yourself to look at

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.

I think we put the concerns to bed with a result at Wolves. Lose there, though, and those concerns deepen. We need points at all costs now. Plaudits an optional extra.

Who would you put your house on to beat City?

That was appalling. They know what they did so they should just keep their mouths shut.

 

[vagablonde - kopite]

City now won their last 8 trips to Goodison, sad days these, I remember when the matches against the big 3 northwest rivals of United,City and RS were always close affairs with us winning a few now and again.

To beat man city you have to have a little bit of luck along the way somewhere. Something we lack for years. So the alternative is you have to be perfect

In fairness, it took a sublime strike and a terrible handball rule for them to win.

It wasn’t run of the mill.

 

[Drico]

To be honest once city upped a gear in the second half it was an uphill task.
No shame that they will beat loads of teams easily.
We did well most of the game.

They’ll stroll to the title. Just getting warmed up.

Wolves the barometer to see precisely where we’re at.

 

[blue to the bone]

That's a very small window your giving yourself to look at

City will be champions
or at worst second. and spurs will be top 6 and maybe top 4. To say they aren't 2 of the best sides in the league is frankly ridiculous.

 

[Swagger]

Who would you put your house on to beat City?

Wolves managed by Gary O'Neil

 

[jonnyg]

Have to disagree with you there. First one Pickford jumps before the shot and not flat footed. It's completely saveable

I feel most of us would call it a wonder goal if one of ours had scored that. PIckford absolutely at fault for the 3rd though, looked like he was aiming for DCL rather than Danjuma, not wide enough of a kick
