Waiting to see the team at 11:15am with Rico Lewis, Kyle Walker, Bernardo and Gundogan in it and Groundhog Day again.
Watched Groundhog Day yesterday for about the 30th time. It starts off terrible for Bill Murray with the first 10 or so days being terrible with the odd good bit thrown in, then it suddenly clicks. The days get better and better as he stops being a miserable shit and in the end he wins the trophy and all is good again. He just needed to trust the process
 
No idea how this one goes, Everton are in decent form but based more on defensive solidity than anything else. It would be great to get at them early, hopefully a decent atmosphere.

If nothing else at least we can’t batter them and have Cahill pinch the points and do that annoying boxing thing at the corner flag. Hope for a bouncing stadium, good atmosphere and some proper attacking football and of course 3 points.
 
Everton - Premier League

Last 12 - Wins 3, Draws 7, Defeats 2
Goals F-10 and A - 7 (4x 0-0 in last 6 games)

They use Back 5 of Pickford, Young, Tarkowski, Branthwaite, Mykolenko
Young is 39 and we have criticised Walker for being too old now. City need to be careful of Tarkowski at corners he is a corner set piece king even more than Gabriel is at Arsenal.

They do have Harrison and Ndiaye on the wings and I expect them to try and exploit our fullbacks. I think we need to exploit their fullbacks as I consider that to be also Everton’s weakest area.
I believe young is out through a yellow card suspension
 
Ortega
Walker Akanji Ake Gvardiol
Kova
Doku Grealish
KDB
Haaland Foden

No Young who has been their best defender this year(wtf).
If City try to loop it in for headers they will get fuck all against Tark and Brainthwaite.
Play it to Haalands feet and take low driven shots against T Rex arms. Have Foden play the SS role Kevin did before against Arsenal.

Akanji and Ake back at all times, Josko and Walker step up to help Kova. Doku and Grealish terrorize on the wings.
