I think the problem for them has been defensively. They don't win the ball back as easily, and they aren't solid. As a result their attacking play has also been hurt. Everton will let them have the ball and play the game that they used to be so good at.

100%. I know there's lots of reasons for Man City's current "struggles" but Pep's teams have always been pretty ropey defensively it's just that teams are/were always too scared to have a go so just hoof it and give them the ball back so they can re-organise.

Dyche such a painful manager. Feels the last one of the era of “Go long, fuck the passing”. Must be so dull being an Everton fan.

I agree but the PL would be boring if everyone played the same way. So long as he doesn't manage us, it makes for decent viewing, from a tactical perspective.

 

I'd absolutely love to have Everton at home right now.

[Sibierski]

Just looked, 2 defeats in last 12 which feels good. But then its only wins against Palace, Wolves and Ipswich  literally bare minimum to scrape by.

 

Going to stay up by virtue of playing Ipswich / Southampton at home in run in and with like 33 points int they?

Nothing decent about it, not even good transitions on counter. Just creates a ‘maybe they could nick it’ feeling, but overall viewing is shite.

If Everton played silky football it just wouldn’t feel right, that’s not what I expect from them. It would be like Vinnie Jones trying to win an Oscar. Everton suits Dyche and Dyche suits Everton, everything is as it should be there.

[Stifler]

Got no faith in Everton’s new owner being able to turn things around.

Roma have taken a nose dive in global stature since his arrival, and they are onto their 3rd manager this season already.

Don’t tell @Kaizero he loves American owners 😀

Man City 1 Everton 1

Man City being utter trash at defending will never not be hilarious.

[Tiresias]

Pep out

And that is also likely the final nail the Premier League need to go with their closed league, especially if Leeds, Burnley, and Sheffield United all come up with American owners.
