Match Thread | Man City vs. Everton (26/12/24)

He doesn't have anything never mind the control, His end product is abysmal. He'd make Adama Traore look like prime Nedved.

He is a total waste of time.

It's weird how vulnerable we look at the back. Southampton are rock bottom and yet even they look like they could have more structure than us.

The reality is we are by far the better team, should have easily been 2/3-0 up. And then once again, as is our luck at the moment, an opponent who would normally slap a shot into row Z arrows it into the top corner like prime Zidane.

Everton have done nothing, they deserve nothing. If they hadn’t scored we’d all be sat here thinking it’s normal business resumed. The score line isn’t even close to telling the story and if we go out and do that again we will win 4-1.

In the meantime there’s the usual hysterical shite posted in here.

I wouldn't say we are by far the better team.

I reckon with two new full-backs and a quality midfielder with energy, we'd be a different team.

Unless they had the exact same names of the players they replaced.

We will huff and puff second half with shit long balls that go straight to Pickford.

Continue with wank corners

Then make subs on 75 minutes, have a bit of a go then make a calamity for Everton to nick it.

Gundogan on to create??

Think the poster means KDB, surely?

The old one shot, one goal scenario for Everton then:/

They had 2 goes before. And it was a good finish from the Scouser to be fair.

Doesn't make up for the brain farts mind.

Were much more solid with Kovacic playing.

That's fine but that's comparing him with Gundogan & Bernardo at 6. Kovacic hasn't been good for us today or recently - has the same issues with recovery pace, is out of position, drives forward into dead ends and was standing off for their goal

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Feels like every time we start to look better, we concede a fucking stupid goal. It's a mentality issue from these players and I don't know what Pep can do about it.

Better than this, we control games and then have 0 positional awareness or desire to get it back and let teams stroll through us easily. Put Simpson Pusey CB and akanji cdm. Just someone who will actually try defensively

You think a teenager will have better positional awareness than a 30 odd year old big name professional?

Isn’t positional awareness what we’re all having a go at a 20 year old Rico for?

You just want change for the sake of it. We’ve lost every game Pusey has played.
