Match Thread | Man City vs. Everton (26/12/24)

It did take a deflection of Akanji

Lewis had little chance, it was deflected away from him. We just can't catch a break at present.

 

[Blueknows]

No fucking idea what's going with KdB.

With any of them tbf

 

[bluenova]

Savinho going to get his first goal today.
Haaland (pen) finishes them off.

3-1.

COME ON CITY!!!

First out of six wins in a row I predict :)

 

[Bluearmy]

That's fine but that's comparing him with Gundogan & Bernardo at 6. Kovacic hasn't been good for us today or recently - has the same issues with recovery pace, is out of position, drives forward into dead ends and was standing off for their goal

Oh he’s no DM. Never was. But in the current situation he’s our best option unfortunately

 

[Beanhead]

Now I know you’re just taking the fucking piss.

Not really, take your blue tinted specs off and academy bias away and watch him and there are glaring similarities to him and cleverly imo in both play style but most importantly what they lack to succeed at the elite level. Both tidy players but that is it… that’s not where we want to go.

I want him to succeed here… but he won’t.

 

[svennis pennis]

Hate it when teams like this drag themselves back into it especially with what is going on at the moment. Hopefully we can score early and drag them out of their block… again. Feels like a monumental task right now.

 

[Legal Alien]

Nonsense.

Akanji wasn't marking Calvert-Lewin, so Lewis had to come in a little to cover. Then Akanji fluffed clearing the cross.

Any blame on Lewis should be directed towards Akanji on this occasion.

Not for me, his man was on his own.
He gets caught out ball watching, a lot!

 

[give it to gordon]

Why haven't Everton got the club badge on their shirts ?

 

[CΛL]

Sick of seeing Haaland laughing and joking around, especially when he isn’t scoring. Lad doesn’t give a fuck. Get him off for Muvamba

 

[Legal Alien]

Savinho is doing my fucking head in with his decision making today

He needs to play on the left imo

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

Cmon city!

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

Sick of seeing Haaland laughing and joking around, especially when he isn’t scoring. Lad doesn’t give a fuck. Get him off for Muvamba

Grow up.

 

[citymad]

It shows you how poor we’ve been when fans would rather watch us on the concourse at halftime

 

[malg]

Why haven't Everton got the club badge on their shirts ?

I asked that earlier. Fuck it, I'll Google it

 

[happy]

Do you practice the theory of Magic Thinking? The idea that some action or incident can affect the outcome of the game.

There used to be a lad on the old CityMancs site that swore by the power of a bowel movement, I think it was Boston Blue, and by now we'd all be urging him to go for a lucky poo.

 

[Longballutd]

Big half here, cmon City

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

His best game for me so far. It’s just the end product that needs sorting out. 20 years old. Give him time.

Fuck off Everton

"best game so far'...not been much competition sadly
most shots at goal this season in the PL without scoring apparently

 

[TinFoilHat]

@twosips twin is the only player that seems to be able to head from a cross. Albeit it he hits the post or defender.

 

[svennis pennis]

My hamstrings tighten watching Ake sprint. Painful.

 

[Don Karleone]

Better Sav
