Match Thread Everton Vs Manchester City - Capital One Cup - Semi Final 1st Leg - Wednesday 6th January - 20:00 KO

[Ollie d]

Looked a lot more solid, be that Besic in the middle or even the extra confidence a goalie who can come off his line gives. Top performance and could've been a lot more.

 

[The Equaliser]

Decent result to take to their place for the the 2nd half. I wouldn't worry too much about the away goal as we are more than capable of cancelling it out. Much better 2nd half performance overall.

Just hope the Lukaku injury doesn't put a dampener on it if he is going to be out for a while.

 

[USABlue]

wonder will we do this the everton way and win by losing 3-2

I'd be thrilled!

 

[banno]

Good display. Lets hope its a kick start and lets hope the injuries are nothing to be concerned about.

 

[Eggs]

GarBar top man for me, a god like performance

......100%.

 

[DualityNSNO]

typical everton 2-1

I'm happy to eat my own words in cases like that, mate! I've said it before and I'm more than happy to say it in the final as well, if this is the same turnout

But it is the most Everton thing to do, regardless of the final score - a guy who hasn't scored in a million games is nailed on to score against us ffs.

Besic next to Barry. Lovely

Brilliant tonight and the 2nd half against Spurs, Besic never stops and does a lot of running for Barry to stay central.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

I hope so mate we need to go there and win to me

Isn't a score draw good enough from now Matty?

At least it's advantage Everton!

 

[Azza]

....settle for that, perhaps there were more goals but we played like the game was more important for us. Besic was good, so was Mori but Barry was tremendous.

Yeah first 15 minutes I guess we waited for what their gameplay was.

I don't get why we can get it so right at times, but so bad other times.

 

[summerisle]

I am happy as that sandboy I keep hearing about.

 

[stretford blue]

Away goals count in the League Cup semi finals but only AFTER extra time. If it’s level on aggregate after 90 minutes, it goes to ET

 

[Jags..class]

Hopefully we can sign Byram soon

[Darkhorse]

Much better line up, much better result, happy days coybbbbbb

 

[Professor Toffee]

Yeah it was a cracking match, two good teams and I'm really proud to say that!
