Match Thread | Everton vs Man City (26/02/22)

[LongsightM13]

Shocking first half from us, picked up where we left off last weekend.

I don't understand why Pep has chosen to empty our midfield again?

Rodri is completely exposed because Bernie is so high up and De Bruyne is so slow to even get back in.

Cancelo can't get out on his side and Everton more than happy for the centre backs to bring it up and have the onus on them to find something between the lines.

If we don't show more desire and urgency, we aren't winning this.

The midfield thing is baffling, as if persisting with Foden on the right when the left back is right footed

Pep is trying everything to lose us the title. 45 minutes wasted in every segment of the game. To say nothing has clicked is an understatement. I don't want to sound negative, but our inability to put them under any sustained pressure is worrying. Every single player/position on the pitch looks wrong. We look like it is the beginning of the season and we didn't have pre-season.

He's trying to lose the season? What the actual!

Can't you guys slink back into the woodwork? Ffs

no Mahrez no party. Gundog and Rodri doesn't work , stifles Bernie. get Eric off and bring Walker on to complete our best back 4.

Agree on Mahrez but Gundo isn’t the problem for Bernie, they played brilliantly together with Kev out. KDB is currently the elephant in the room.

This is the laziest excuse trooped out whenever we are not playing well. Blame the opposition for raising their game. Heres an Idea, how about we raise ours.

Exactly. We're the Champions and the team on top of the league of course opposition are going to raise their game, It's up to us to match the fight or even better win the fucking fight. By the looks of things today Allan is playing against kids in a playground bullying them in midfield.

If we loose this the league could be gone. Liverpool have all the momentum and are in much better form.

There’s a third of the season left. We could just be having a bad month. There’s 36 points to play for including a game against the title rivals.

Even if we lose today and next week it’s not over.

Chill out with the anxiety please. We are drawing at ht in front of a passionate away crowd. Some of the play could be better but we are top, best defensive record, most wins and not a bad team with top players back from injury on the bench. Keep it real blues.

Well, we must be watching a different game then, people see what they want sometimes, best we agree to disagree.

Been a busy player that Gordon as he was raping Cancelo earlier on the other side, well, when he stays on his diving feet.

They all love a dive and fall to the ground & tge ref is buying it.
