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

[Northeastblue]

Christ that's poor to concede that late

What ?,?

 

[Prevenger17]

Iwobi. The game is up

 

[Paul Rideout]

Such a load of toss that de Bruyne can dive on the edge of the box there, swear that’s off putting because they half expect the foul to be given

 

[Dublin blue 75]

There’s still a chance in this for us

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

You know what, a decent attempt leading to a narrow defeat would not have been enough for me prior to kick off, but after watching the game I'm a bit more at peace with it

We gave the best team on the planet a proper game today

No shame in losing under those conditions

Just gutting that we did so well and didn't get our reward for it

With fans in the stadium, then who knows, it might have been different

Gutted but proud of our boys

 

[Lapeno77]

Needed changes 10 minutes ago.

 

[Marius57]

Oh well. They have at least put a shift in which we don't normally see. That's what you get when you have zero subs that would make any difference.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Great effort but we literally offer nothing going forward other than nicking set pieces.

Wish we could find a way to utilise DCL / Richarlison as we have two good forwards but haven't the right system for them imo

 

[RomanReigns]

How many times do you let Laporte run at you before you learn your lesson

 

[Wat Tyler]

So hard for us to win a trophy again when the likes of City take every competition seriously.

 

[bullybeef]

Ha ha the subs City bring on.

Then we bring on one obi Iwobi!

 

[PhilM]

Nothing to lose now, Blues. Chuck everything at it.

I think we've shackled City effectively and overall played fairly well, but as you say it's not worth throwing everything at it. A fair few positives up to now.

 

[TheBigIguana]

If he puts Iwobi in midfield we might have a shot at creating something. If he puts him on the right this is over.

 

[Efcjake]

That's a gut punch


What a mess. They all stopped expecting that nob to give the free kick

 

[Big_nev]

Can we have the free kick for De Bruyne blatantly diving in front of the box?
