Match Thread | Man City vs Everton (01/01/20)

Well I don't really care about all the moaners and groaners and know very little critics...

I think it is a brilliant, exciting game of football with a great deal of skill and technique on display from both sides... but mostly from City.

Roll on the second half...

I had more exciting farts than this

 

[Tugay One Cup]

The formation isn't fully set yet. So we are a bit hesitant. Mendy and Cancelo seem mad comfortable with their roles. Everyone else being a bit reserved.

Think it suits their game to have extra cover at the back.

The worst thing about not being able to get to the game tonight, is listening to the bloody commentators, I’ve had to resort to putting it on mute, they’re doing my head in.

Aye very negative about us.....regardless weve been by far the better side Im in no doubt we'll win this

 

[SWPISHOME]

I think we need to get Sterling on to get in behind Everton, Unfortunately it's all a bit too easy defensively for Everton as everything is being played on front of them. The one time we did he get in behind we out the ball in the back of the net (obviously VAR stepped in then).
I fear being hit with a suckerpunch! Garcia and Fernandinho playing very well though.

Him and Benjani; separated at birth?

I thought Vassals first name was Offside

I think if a Prem team is at home in the Cup VAR does apply.... sorry mate.

If it's a non Prem ground, even if they have VAR capability (Swansea, Cardiff, Huddersfield etc...) it isn't used.

Bollox. I knew that was the case last year but thought I'd heard it'd changes. Must have been a dream! Anyone want a ticket

 

[Afterthefact]

Wouldn’t mind seeing sterling on for mahrez at some point to see foden-Jesus-sterling front three. I feel like there are deep balls in behind we would have on the right with sterling’s pace.

fine half, in control, but need a little more incisiveness.

 

[Mr Partridge]

Been saving up for about a year so I can afford a season ticket next year, spending it on a holiday instead now.

Not going to football matches until VAR finally fucks off.

 

[TINY]

He must have 100% passing accuracy...Pity the 100% accuracy is to an Everton player though.

91% off 59 balls, compared to KDB 85% off the same amount. Second best only to Bravo.

 

[Cornish_Blue]

We have shown some really quick passing, which got stifled as soon as we moved forward. If we are more direct, it will force them to try and stop us, rather than us stopping ourselves.
