Everton aren't getting anything from this, are they?...

[Magic Lamps 11,677]

Watching City games is like watching 11 men playing around 11 cones with a ref awarding foul, when one of the guys or the ball touches a cone.

Lamps gonna score?...

[xPetrCechx 13,565]

Useless Everton.

[xPetrCechx 13,565]

So Only 3 Points.

We've only got ourselves to blame I'm afraid.

Andre Mariner was just short of putting on the City jersey.

Well he was having an oul cry when coming off, so let's hope he's out. Only good news today. He always gets injured, it was only a matter of time. I'm not worried about City. They can't get the rub of the green in every match like they did today.

There we have it, City given three on a plate, just as the refs association want, a nice close title fight.

Today we didn't deserve to win but when teams are given shit on a plate that's why the gap is closing.

City were fortunate with the penalty decision and could well have had Mangala/Fernando sent off. That being said I was impressed by their performance. They were very organised defensively with 2 banks of 4 and they pressed with numbers and great enthuiasm in their own area. They had plenty of chances on the counter as a result of turnovers and conceded only 1 chance of any note, as well as never being pinned back. A very strong defensive performance.

I don't understand Everton at all... Only 1-0 down and there was 5 minutes left. Yet instead of getting the ball up the pitch as much as they could, they decided to pass it in their own half?! Damage limitation at 1-0 down?..

Pub side, nobodies, yet they beat you. LOL

[Blue Traveler 256]

Fucking Andre Marriner!

They lacked conviction really. City had no interest to go for the 2nd goal and were happy to kill the game off at 1-0. There wasn't any urgency or tempo to Everton's play in the last 10-15 minutes. Just kept giving the ball back to City!
