Everton (H) | PL | Post Match Thread

Did enough to win. You cannot be missing penalties and Bernardo has to take that chance for 2-0. Different outcome if those two go our way.

Similar pattern to many games in this run -

First half:

Decent start, lots of good, controlled football and a few decent chances created. Flashes of the “old” City.

Second half:

Slow, boring, monotonous patterns of side to side recycling. Huge collective drop off in energy, desire and “oomph”.

The fitness issue is fucking diabolical. Most of them can only perform at PL level for about half an hour. I’ve been saying this for weeks but why are they so unconditioned?!

Everton’s last minute counter - they bomb forward with numbers we look like a load of 55 year old 5 a side fat fucks who smoke 30 a day.

Can’t get my head round it.
 
Ake and Kova the positives.

The rest are dreadful right now, actually thought Savinho started both halves very well but his lack of press at the end is unforgivable, they waltzed right past him into a 4 on 2.

We deserve nothing right now, Bernardo outside of the boot shot and Haaland penalty were endemic of our season. Taking things for granted and not working hard.

Always have faith in Pep, but I'm starting to think his statements about "having his players back" isn't about the injured players but the mentality of the players that are fit.

At least we play again in 3 days. Merry Christmas!
 
That’s part and parcel of buying a ticket to be entertained. If you’re not entertained you can complain. That was shit today and it’s on the team which includes the players and manager. Was this your first football match?
4 in a row perhaps 5 was a stretch too far ….petal
