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

[Noble Savage]

Honours even in the Neil Pointon derby.

Never had any doubt we would get something today….Said absolutely noone in their right mind.

I was calling it a Peter Beagrie Derby but I like your description better.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

2 very evenly matched teams . Too close to call.

?

 

[NathDogg]

Mad club and team, proper mad. Least the away fans get a little something to cheer, they deserve so much more. Safe travels blues and UTFT!

Might actually watch motd now.

 

[Alanbileysfeathercut]

Love a coupon buster

 

[R934]

Cliche to say after a positive result

But the team played for each other and the manager

It's not always evident at Everton but there is a fire that can be lit. Last season Burnley onwards shows we can turn a corner / grind out results

Got to carry whatever momentum we can and take 3 points from Brighton

 

[Groucho]

Kept the shape, well earned point.

I’m as pleased as Lawrence.

 

[terryefc]

Gray's goal deserved something. Brave performance. Ordinarily I'd be chuffed but that Wolves result floored me.

 

[Dad watched Dixie]

Up yours Chris Sutton. 5-0 to City my arse!

 

[BlueStevie35]

Could be the point that kick starts the season

 

[Nosidoog]

That’s the kind of game that keeps a supporter’s belief alive

 

[atypicalusername]

Coleman was stellar in the middle and prior to that at RB

Consumate professional.

 

[mikel_88]

All i wanted today was this team to show some fight. Was great seeing that defending today is what we all want to see. Still need to bring more attackers in but is step forward

 

[Verbal Kint]

Football eh....

It's actually mad, did we show much quality. No

Did we show fight, in abundance.

Great point.... Iwobi outstanding and Mykolenko.... Coleman unreal when he came on.

 

[Goodison87]

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in… hats off, well done Blues!

 

[Papa Shango]

Anyone shed light on why 11 minutes of added time? Other than a sky brand not winning of course.

Linesman had a technical issue that added on about five minutes and we went down injured a fair bit. Honestly it was probably about right.
