Everton vs City - Post Match Thread

[stony]

Really tough test today, Everton weren't poor, far from it. Great defending to keep their chances to a bare minimum. The people calling for Navas to be subbed at half time are fucking idiots.
I thought Pellegrini made a mistake taking Sterling off, we looked more vulnerable on that side. What do I know though, because it was Nasri who sealed it.
Great performance from us today, I hope we keep this up and really put pressure on Chelsea, Mourinho's teams don't like playing catch up.
A quick word on the ref. He gave us nothing, he's a ****.

 

[maccadon]

Nerves settled now.good result and 2 great goals.Navas again one of the best players on the park again.kompany on top form and as usual Silva motm for me.

Have say think kolarov,Silva,sterling is gonna cause a lot of problems this season.love it

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

We won't get many harder away games than that great win defence was brilliant

An away win at Everton before the end of August is an absolute triumph in terms of getting a potential pitfall overcome at a canter.

Dissent

How far did they have to go back?

 

[BucksBlue]

Special mention yet again for Sagna.
Flawless again.
Looked very, very impressive.
Three games, three outstanding performances.

I agree
except for one cross that he was embarrassed about

 

[goalmole]

Ha ha, guilty as charged. Seriously though, if we're winning at places like Goodison (which is always a bearpit) with such a mixture of grit and flair, then we're gonna take some stopping. Even Rotund Samuel sounds impressed. Heady days to be a Blue!

BFS had a lot of good things to say about us as well.

 

[pudge]

Fat Sam will never be asked back as a Sky pundit ever again.

 

[Bozzie]

Sam likes us!

No secret he wanted, and thought he would be offered, the managers job at City whilst he was at Bolton.

 

[gomoich]

Great win today and momentum really building. Silva was great again.

 

[its grim up north]

We as City fans are very privileged. This team is something special.

Brilliant defensively but poor getting forward. Was in some good positions and couldn't cross the road. But tbf, defend first etc.

 

[Salford_Blue]

Chelsea go to Goodison 12th September

 

[GaudinoMotors]

They'll be getting Summerbee back for an impartial viewpoint at this rate.

 

[shackattack]

Far better team in general, looking the business again. Be hard to compete with at that standard

 

[Newman Noggs]

That second goal was as close to poetry as you can get without using words. The "beautiful game" at its most glorious.

 

[stony]

Yup, Redknapp's stony face as he was saying that was quality.

Don't bring me into it!

 

[TRUE BLUE NO1]

great result today....always difficult game going to Goodison. We had to fight for this win and we did it! Mangala had another solid game today and Sterling's pace and pass on that 1st goal was great to see....now we can all see why he worth every penny!;) Glad to get this one over with.......I really like Navas's work rate and his pace but think a De Bruyne would have put that shot in the back of the net!;)......great win Blues!!!!

 

[warspite]

Do we really need De Bruyne?

 

[Lucky Toma]

Sterling's best game in a City shirt and the lad is looking better by the week. Weighted passes and awareness I didnt think he had in him.

So many other positives too. Vinnie's imperious return to form, Kolorov and Sagna looking immense, Navas, Ferny....

Three games in and I feel that the only opposition between us and the title is injury.

i agree - yaya wasn't even fucking looking cheeky bastard

 

[WyongBlue]

Huge performance from all of the team, great goals from Kolarov and Nasri, the midfield was buzzing, and we stood firm in defence, Goodison was never a good ground for us in recent years, but this performance spoke volumes today...............well done guys............
