Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Everton (18/10/25)

[citymad]

How many times does it take for Pep to realize Doku and Sav just doesn’t work. This has got 0-0 or 0-1 written all over it.

 

[samuelyeboah]

this is absolutely awful

 

[ScottSinclair]

Doku has been poor

 

[super_city_si]

Thank fuck for reinjders there

 

[Gazza]

Bournemouth top of the league at the mo.

 

[heslops barnet]

Get Foden off, he can watch the game from the bench.

He’s no Kev

 

[HypnoticBlue]

Awareness on the ball is awful, we’re weak and lacking ideas. This is piss poor.

 

[Don Karleone]

I don't think we're playing particularly badly, but I'd be tempted to make some changes at HT.

 

[simonr555]

Savinho needs hooking and handing his P45. He’s absolute fucking shit.

 

[theholysmurf]

Were absolutely shite, Ndaiye best player on the pitch by far. Fuck Savio off and get him in

 

[PrezIke]

Truth is the way this match is going isn't surprising... and could be seen as related to recent trend

Where "control" or "dominating" games is MUCH more difficult and resulting in higher risk...

"Fast breaks" as Everton have had twice (?) against us now

Even Arsenal are not as good defending this as clubs in the past.

The "fast break is a big threat to sides who've utilised control against the "lesser" sides who now have improved players and coaching defending this approach

This is in part I think why we went in for Donarumma as shot stopping and defedning 1 v 1s for a keeper more valuable now perhaps than a master Ball Playing Keeper

 

[Chak19]

Great defending Tijjani, great save Donnarumma, this Ndiaye twat is dribbling like Messi.

 

[dhruvblue]

Ndiaye will score

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

wide open again down O'Reilly's side

 

[remember arthur mann]

Ffs ! Hook Ake.

 

[Blueknows]

Dreary me , great interception reindeer and save donna

 

[heslops barnet]

I don't think we're playing particularly badly, but I'd be tempted to make some changes at HT.

68 minutes, keep up

 

[chesterbells]

Savinho - too weak, not strong enough and doesn't have the killer instinct

Not been great so far today has he?
Impressed by their organisation and marking when we have the ball.
Like to see more mobility and attacking involvement from Reijnders

 

[King Jay]

How many times does it take for Pep to realize Doku and Sav just doesn’t work. This has got 0-0 or 0-1 written all over it.

Why? Because we don’t score 4 in a half anymore? Accept it. The 4-0 in 20 minutes times were an anomaly

 

[AirbagsOptionalTheReturn]

This half and the second half against Brentford have been utter dog shit
