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

Not the worst half we've ever played, far from our best but we still should have been ahead at the half besides the utter shit defending for their goal and Foden giving it away in midfield to gift them possession.

Think we need Kev on if he's ready, take Mahrez off and get Foden out wide would be the move I'm hoping we make.

Ironically "how predictable" is what we are all thinking when Mahrez takes twenty touches, then cuts inside and drifts a pointless cross that is headed out by the defender at the back post, for the 10th time that half

your just sheep. He has been one of our better players

Apparently TV does that to you

And a bike pump

That Richarlason would look good up front for us.

Not watching the game so nipped in for a quick update.
I'm not sure if it's level at half-time or we're 3 down with a minute to go.

About as ropey as I expected it to be. The 3 I had my eye on Jesus, Walker and Mahrez have all been poor.

For their goal Walker runs away from Digne towards the goal...why?

Their goal was down to Laporte and Walker. Both marking space in front of the goal instead of dealing with the threat

We’ve played well, controlled the game and mainly dominated. Not sure why some players are getting dogs abuse. Eddie Howe just said Mahrez been excellent tonight. Sometimes you don’t always get what you deserve. Everton have done well

 

[mccity]

Everton have defended quite well in fairness to them.

 

[mat]

Btw Porto are fucking hammering Juve if anyone is interested

All set up for a world class performance from Fake Ronny...

Walker poor tonight so far IMO. No idea what he was doing for their goal and rubbish going forward.

I think Mahrez has actually been better tonight.

Not really clicked so far but I thought it would be harder tonight without Mr Whippy.
