Match Thread | Manchester City vs. Everton (18/10/25)

[meeesh]

Nico G quietly having a very good game as lone midfielder, again.

Yup passing side to side I’d love him put a killer pass in, if he’s got it in him once in a while

 

[Blue tiger]

Not great, but no great surprise. Just kind of standard for us at the moment.
All a bit of a grind going forward, despite effectively having five attacking players out there. And we’re fairly open through the midfield - too easy for them to get in the spaces in front of the back four and slide little passes through.
Still a hell of a lot to improve on.

Match is fully as I expected it. Hard slog against a decent, hardworking well organized Moyes side.

There's some chap in a row on front of me doing a crossword.

There is not a top 3 side in any league in the world who would accept the outputs of Doku and Savinho as their wide attacking players.

Nowhere near good enough and no sign of consistent improvement.

 

[super_city_si]

No one will ever convince me that him and Savinho will ever be at the required standard. That N'Diaye has helped his full back out brilliantly too tbf.

Hes a very good player ndiaye

 

[SamTheGuru]

It's the poorest quality City team we have had in years. Just got to get used to it I suppose!

 

[manimanc]

Everton are no mugs. They are full of confidence at the minute. If anything they look more dangerous on the attack.
If we win this then it'll be from a 25 yarder.

 

[Goater101]

Kova, Marmoush, Cherki on for Reijnders Foden Savio.

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

We are bang average.

Haaland can occupy two or three players and it's completely fine with the opposition due to that fact that our wingers wouldn't hot a cows arse with a banjo.

We look vulnerable at the back even by a simple ball over the top, Dias getting bullied by Beto on every occasion.

We've alot of fannies in this team, too many don't work hard enough and aren't commited in a challenge.

Anyway I'm off to get a hot dog which will by the highlight of the game by the looks of things.

I think that statement by itself is a complete explanation

 

[heslops barnet]

Need to change something second half, we don’t look like scoring

 

[keemcfc]

i saw the line up and thought apart from haalaand who gets in the 18/19 team?

Just him, O'Reilly & Dias

I'm surrounded with kids and their parents. Trying not to swear too much.

Better get Marmoush on then

 

[OrigamiNinja]

Classic match day punters, eh? if we’re not winning, we are shit. If we are winning, we’re the best team on the planet.

Yeah you’re right. This side is just as good as our recent teams. Just a bad 45 mins that.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Not sure whose bright idea it was to offer Dias a new contract. Not presently in the top 10 CBs in the league and hasn’t played consistently well for a number of years now.

There's some chaps around me saying some cross words.

 

[burnley blue mcfc]

Wouldn’t trust savinho to finish his fuckin dinner, never mind several chances, useless

 

[Claytop]

Good job they’re shit apart from N’Diaye

 

[Don Karleone]

International break game. We'll be reet.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

If, as quite a few think, we are capable of mounting a title challenge this season then we need to why in the 2nd half. This is the sort of game genuine title challengers get through with a win.
