Everton v City post match

[Exeter Blue I am here]

It's the players.

Is it?

Sterling should just have FUCKING SCORED.....end of !!!

Ok, Sterling should have scored. If he did, would we have won today?

It nearly breaks my heart that we didn't push on after 93-20.

We really did have the opportunity to dominate & create records,legends & a dynasty.

The PL has subsequently changed & the opportunity has probably gone for ever.

We've let the rags off the hook yet again.

It's impossible to pull teams out of position if they don't want to be.

Every goal we concede is on the counter, even in the win against Barca.

Chelsea, Liverpool, Middlesbrough, Everton, they all sit in and wait.

Our passive aggressiveness, trying to switch the play, is food and drink for any team that prepares in the week and knows we will play everything in front of them at a stroll.

Keep Aguero with his back to goal, or let him spin out to the flank, job done.

The biggest slight I can hand Pep at present is that I could pick the tactics which would eradicate half of the issues.

Have the backline go back another ten metres and fuck off Clichy and Bravo.

Any news as whether there are any plans to do this?

Transfer forum has been exceedingly quiet of late...

I keep saying - we need to be patient - wait until Pep gets the squad HE wants. The only question now is - does Pep think we can get top 4? If we can - we keep going with this set of players - if its beyond us - we may as well go with the kids and have a look at them before the summer. We know some of this group are past it. Poor performance but unfortunately we have this in our locker at the moment.

Embarrassing, abject, think Bravo should audition for Hollowman II.

He would miss audition

Let's be honest guys, how good, bad or indifferent Bravo is, had nothing to do with our defeat today.

We lost again because yet again we had all the possession but whilst we prioritise possession over attacking threat, we will rarely trouble an organised defence.

And as we push on more and more, we leave ourselves wide open and get caught.

It's the same every week. We only score when we move the ball quickly. Slow possession gets us nothing.

But it does though because there's a huge pattern emerging where we go a goal down to the first shot on target. He's rarely actually being beaten with worldies either, there's usually a debate on whether or not he should have done better on about 80% of the goals and that's quite damming for a supposedly world class keeper.

I think him being in net breeds absolute panic so while he will remain blameless for the technicality of the goal, he is a massive contributor to what's currently going on.

GULP ! This strikes a chord with me. Hope you're wrong

And me.

Who do we bring in and please dont say Mancini?

A better manager who understands this league, we're like some Guardiola experiment in my eyes, he's done nothing since day one that impresses me, nothing & his management style is bizarre & will never work in England & while we're at it have a look at where the club has been heading since these 2 clowns from Barcelona rocked up.....down the fucking pan if you hadn't noticed. Get rid of the lot & start again.

 

[ono]

Everton didn't find an extra 20% today though, it was City lacking 20%, well in some cases players lacking 100%.

Maybe but generally speaking we see teams going up a level when they play us and I honestly think it is because we are the most beatable top side. Look at Leicester die they brat us. They've been a shower of shit and we managed to be 4-0 down.
