[maccavennie]

19-goal thriller tonight

City 7
Everton 12

No chance Pickford is conceding 7 mate.

I've just been in traffic, sat behind a car with the license plate ' MC 6 3 EFC'.

Really hope that isn't an omen.

Gareth Barry went straight in after what, one game pre season. I reckon Gylfi will do the same.

 

[T LEAFE]

The 3 should read 0
80/1

Anyone without a ticket watching this in Manchester? Not sure where to go, lived here for years but this is the first time I'll have to watch us against a Manchester club from outside the safety of my own home or the away end at the stadium. I don't know which are "city pubs" and "united pubs"

No chance Pickford is conceding 7 mate.

Fair point.

City 4
Everton 15

If we conceded 6 Koeman would have them lined up before a firing squad on the pitch after the final whistle.

Why is Sigurdsson up front?

 

[GwladysBlue]

I reckon he's going to start Sig.

 

[lucashmoura9]

Fairly confident you'll get a result tonight. For all the hype surrounding Man City, they didn't looked too convincing last week against Brighton, if you sit back and hit them on the counter you could cause an upset tonight i think

If we conceded 6 Koeman would have them lined up before a firing squad on the pitch after the final whistle.

I don't think it's too wild of a prediction if he starts with Jagielka and Williams.

 

[Nymzee]

I can't offer up a predicted score until I see the line-ups.

 

[RichardP]

I can see Siggy starting on the bench. Hopefully he comes on with the scores level at about 75 minutes and scores the winner.
