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

[phargrave]

We look like a team that’s lost it’s mojo.
Not the time of the season for that I’m afraid.
We look lacklustre and devoid of ideas.

I think the fact that we were still winning masked a lot of the sloppiness that was evident for a while. It’s catching up on us at the wrong end of the season though.

Forgot the league unless things change dramatically

Stones?

The only one playing fucking well ffs

Way to slow to play RB

 

[Beanhead]

Awful half. Truly awful. One positive is we aren’t losing.

 

[BlueBanger]

And if we win?

Then we worry about what we'll see next week...based off recent games.

 

[kanovic]

Aside from our long winning streak...

Abandon shipppppp

 

[01cravend]

We can clearly see changes and tweaks need to happen but with Pep you can put your House on the fact we'll come out exactly the same.. it's starting line-up works or nothing with him.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Shocking first half, Very lacklustre, Lack of urgency, Lack of ideas. We look completely out of sorts.
Take your pick of who comes off it could be any of them.
Mahrez needs to come on, Take off any of the front three nowhere near good enough. Not having this John Stones at right back bullshit either, Play him alongside Dias. De Bruyne is getting away with it too lately especially today caught on the ball time after time.

Please stop giving away unnecessary fouls too ffs

What the hell have they been working on all week. Not passing, not shooting, not pressing. This a re run of last week . Pep looks like he hasn’t a clue what to do so just repeats the same mistakes .

We had a grest formula. Rodri, Bernardo and one of kev/gundo in midfield.
peps decided its was too easy and he got bored of it

 

[Silvanova]

Stones understandably looks up for it but while he’s good on the ball for a CB, don’t think he’s as comfortable as you’d like for a full back. Would like to see some decent crosses into the box considering we have three cbs on and they can’t defend set pieces, supposedly.

hoping Everton fade but more seem to be drawing us into their kind of scrappy chaos. Best chances went to them but their diving is pissing me off.

 

[Afterthefact]

Extra touches on the ball because no one seems to know where anyones going to be. Everton quick to every player, which means we need to be a step ahead to play next pass and run into space behind. part of why kevs got caught on the ball a few times.
