Match Thread Manchester City v Everton (Mon 21 Aug 2017, 20:00)

[zirc]

made up with a point like, still pity we couldn't hold on to all three

 

[flibbyflob]

Taken that before the night started. Slightly gutting not to win but a good point there.

 

[Huyton Layne]

Point's a point. Might be the difference between 17th and 18th, right lads??

 

[eurosrees]

Good point that, shame for Holgate, apart from that mistake he was great all night.

 

[desblue]

I'll settle for that
thought we done well

 

[davek]

Utterly 'kin pathetic.

Leading a team down to 10 men for the last 55 minutes and shutting up shop for a one goal win then getting hauled back.

Tells you everything you need to know about a team led by a cautious, hide-behind-the couch manager.

 

[Blue & White]

Jagielka MOTM for the way he handled Aguero.

 

[bluerobert]

Il take that all day

 

[Tubey]

Right, enjoy your moan lads, but I'm happy with that and would have taken it all day long before the game.

It's going to take more than one summer to build a winning mentality matched with talent. That's the best side in England we played there, away from home, and we've took a point. That'll do me for now.

 

[Blue 1]

Smash them 4-0 at Goodison again then, yeah?

 

[tim cahill]

Really poor second half from Everton, totally bottled it

True. With an extra man we let them dominate.

 

[Norwegian Cow]

1 point away to city is good. too bad we couldnt take more control of the game when they went down to 10, but ok.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

One mistake can lose you points. Unfortunate for Mason as he was brilliant tonight

 

[PhilM]

A point is a good result to be fair considering the opposition, although I still have a feeling of disappointment as the three points were ours.

 

[carolinablue232]

Would've taken it before half, but what a tepid second half. DCL was immense though.
