Everton (a) post-match thread

We got away with that today it was a poor performance having said that I'm sure we would all take shit performances and three points every week. We aren't in a good period performance wise but we have the winning mentality and the know how to just get across the line until we get our momentum back and playing like we know we can.
I thought Everton were denied a penalty today it looked pretty clear cut to be fair but then again we've been denied a few this season too although two wrongs don't make a right.

Anyway MASSIVE three points and a MASSIVE goal for Phil Foden to rediscover his form.
6 points clear. Get in Blues.
 
Will someone please tell these muppets on sky that there was an offside and that’s why the pen wasn’t given , after the var the ref indicated an offside .
 
Well played City we rode our luck today especially with the hand ball and Everton always give us a tough game at their place. 3 points all that matters.
 
How was there an handball after the offside?
Huh?

Everton attacked. The ball ricocheted off Ederson up in the air. Rodri controlled it “without use of his arm”, play continued and then in Everton’s next attack, they were offside.

Play then stopped for VAR to check whether Rodri handled the ball and they deemed he didn’t.

Play then restarted with an indirect free kick for the offside following the VAR checked non-handball.
 
Sure but it's anything but clear from the live pictures it's really close, if the VAR lines were drawn it could go either way.
Why City fans are hoping that the ref made a wrong call in not awarding the penalty shows low self esteem, sorry to say this. If there is an offside there is an offside no matter how close but what I hear fans on this thread say is that we got an unfair advantage even though the offside leading to that incident was correctly judge. If we can’t stand up for ourselves let us stop crying that the media treats us foul.
