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

[Zezti]

In hindsight, lookman should've started. Not that I think he's brilliant but because he's direct, and that's the only chance you have against City. If you don't play direct, you end up playing the short square passes and playing into their hands.

Loved that in the corner then, challenges flying in from both sides, proper footy.

That’s how the game should be played it’s too soft and girly. Men need to act like men. Fruitcakes everywhere on the pitch. Allow some contact.

DCL has been the best player here. Rest have utter bottled it.

The ball brushing against the opponent's shirt does not constitute an own goal.

What the hell is wrong with your finishing???

Sorry mate. My wife always complains that I finish too early

 

[Chewbacca]

Ah well, as it's the hope that kills you, at least we didn't have the hope for long

 

[Billefc]

100% THIS

And let’s all be honest, City haven’t even had to get out of first gear !

 

[Bakayoko Ono]

DCL done fine today. I'd rest Richarlison, Mina, Coleman and Walcott after today, get them ready for Xmas schedule and give Lookman, Kenny, DCL and Davies a go to freshen things up.

 

[Del-boy]

Oh well just Spurs up next..

 

[Azza]

I don’t care about the implications of us winning, we need to have a go here for us.

How's this been on your scale of having a go?

 

[toffee-L]

As crap as we've been today we could have scored 4. We miss big chances in big games at big moments.

Striker please!

Tom Davies

Lol

 

[Zezti]

Davies to save the day...

 

[Mozza1987]

Siggy deserves to be pulled off. Shocking performance
