Everton (H) - Post-Match Thread

[Bluekiwi]

Watching the end of the OS Extended highlights it seems that a young fair-headed lad wants to get(I think) Rodri's shirt. There is a definite movement to take the shirt off. Who was the Everton youngster and was it Rodri?

Okay. A quick warning to a handful of posters on here; do not derail the thread. If it happens again, bans will follow.

Anyone seen an estimate of the speed of that shot from Rodders?

iirc sky in the past sometimes showed a graphic with a speed for certain ‘rocket shot’ goals

Think I read somewhere it was approaching 60 mph.

It was a thunderbastard for sure!

It's a sign of how bad Everton were that I didn't feel the need or heard any 'Fat Spanish waiter' singing.

I'm surprised that Rafa's not got the Everton fans in his back yet after all it's easy to win with money isn't it?

I marvelled at the quality I saw in the Brazilian and Dutch sides of yesteryear but the way Pep has us playing is either an equal or an upgrade. The punditry from MotD2 just laid it bare. Complicated to defend against but simple for the City players

Yer didn't hear me then - I got one chorus in but I was a lone voice among the FOCs in CBL3!

Is there a alt commentary ?

It was a City youngster and yes he got onto the pitch at the end - security immediately went to overreact, but Rodri told them to back off and gave the lad his shirt. Obviously a job's worth escorted the lad back to his parents and gave them a lecture.

Rodri’s thunderb@stard just reached Aberdeen

Fair enough, I’m on the last row of CB2 towards the Family stand, I have never heard anyone boo but that’s just around me, my hearing isn’t 100% but it’s a bit of an older generation in there, @meeesh sits not too far away, he may be able to confirm. We have been known to sing, one of my favourites was “La La La La Summerbee” :-)

I’m in 230 and there’s never been any booing, apart from the CL jingle.

Just watching the match on City+. I'm too biased to have an objective view on the penalty decisions. The Sterling one was soft and shouldn't have been given but you're right it shouldn't have been overturned.
Gundogan was bounced off the ball by Iwobi, body to body. Probably wasn't a pen but I'd have wanted one. Bernardo was kicked on the bottom of his foot when it was in the air. Think Walker had one the same given against him last season. It was difficult for the on field ref to see but I'm pretty sure VAR was in operation yesterday

I think the problem with the Bernardo decision was his delayed fall. It never looks good to a ref.

However, I think its because Bernardo tried to play on instead of collapsing as soon as he felt the contact.

He then felt pain in his foot and decided he couldn’t keep running.

100% penalty for me.

Richarlison is still a ****.

I still haven't seen this again, can you post a clip?

Playing the best football of any team anywhere in the world. Some sublime combinations with MOTM performances all over the park.

The only thing missing is the game where we put every chance away and absolutely hammer someone.

Given the quality of the football, it’s hard to believe we have a worse GD than Chelsea and Liverpool!

Going to be an interesting season, but regardless of how it ends up, it is an absolute joy to be a City fan right now. Football of the highest order.

I’ll see if I can find one. I watched a rerun of the match yesterday.

There doesn't seem to be a clip. If you have City+ you can view the whole game there. It’s at 52 mins 35 secs.

Like I said I'm too biased but VAR should have intervened?
