Match Thread | Everton vs Man City (17/02/21)

Mahrez & Walker on the right means there's zero intelligence on the right.

Walker overlaps. Mahrez cuts inside.

That's all they can do.

Walker is off form and pressing, Mahrez IMO simply does nothing for this team in it's current form. I'd rather see Foden at RW.

Their Goal La Porte just stood there watching.

And Walker in no mans land.

That was actually a Microcosm of so many goals scored against us last season.

Wish Pep would stop fucking about with defense.

Mentioned it earlier, he always comments on the strength of the team in how they react after defeat,
he then tends to put a dodgy side out and we come unstuck.

He’s given the ball away too much, over thought a good position up the wing by trying to take it back inside three times and then ran it out of play.

His worst game for ages.

In this game and the last, Cancelo has started getting way too cocky, overcomplicating things and losing the ball in dangerous situaitons. A lot of the fans seem more excited by him nutmegging someone in midfield than concerned that he then immediately loses the ball and the opposition counter.

I have a feeling he's heading for an absolute clanger that costs us a game, or Pep benching him to knock him down a peg or two.

He spoke publicly about how Cancelo needs to keep it simple to be good, comments which seem more pointed every game but he didn't listen.

 

[Ban-jani]

Generally thought we’ve played well. No idea why everyone thinks Everton away is easy.

 

[aguero93:20]

Btw Porto are fucking hammering Juve if anyone is interested

 

[CBD]

Wow, you really showed me mate!

Not difficult

 

[PaleBlue]

Ruined it with the strongbow!

Not for me! Can I have 1 brunette join in?

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I’m no fan of Mahrez, but he’s been ok tonight.

 

[Semper aggressus]

I thought Mahrez has done ok, and Sterling when he actually gets the ball. It breaks down with Jesus, he just doesn't hold it up and he misses too many chances.

Walker was very poor and need to be off, put Zinchenko on and move Cancelo back to the right would improve our game though.
