***Treble Winners v Everton Official Match Thread***

[nottsblue]

Win and we return to the top of the league, albeit for probably only a couple of hours. But it would give us a boost and it lets the dippers know we are around

No Dyche for Everton on the touchline apparently but in reality, for ten men behind the ball, how much help from the manager can there be?

Despise Everton and hope we batter them. Hopefully T-Rex Pickford doesn't have his good game in 5 tomorrow like Flekken did on Monday

4-0 Haaland (2) KDB and Doku

Never minded everton even when they were bricking the trains back in the day. Expect to see another fly-over for the cameras and their protests ramped up. We are starting to click and with the game on tuesday, I can see Pep having a tinker. Taking my youngest whose 5 for his second scousers at home game this season and looking forward to this as ive had to miss the last couple of home games

Enjoy the game SC with the young un.

A minor issue with your post. It might well be both scouse teams are down the queue in the Class stakes, but Everton are scouse 1, LFC with always be number 2 , Scouse2.
I can , however, understand why you mixed them up , classwise there really is little difference.

Interesting to see whether Grealish starts after Peps negative comments ( not as good as last season but improving).

No no no we're getting smashed 3 nil

[johnny crossan]

Rumours Kev only makes the bench + Akanji, Stones & Foden start, no Walker.

[blues2win]

Pep will want a decent victory away to Copenhagen to put the tie to bed. Hence perhaps Kevin kept fresh for next week.

[johnny crossan]

Hmmm - still no room for Grealish???

[CTID Hants]

Your City squad!

XI | Ederson, Stones, Akanji, Dias (C), Ake, Rodrigo, Nunes, Foden, Alvarez, Doku, Haaland

SUBS | Ortega Moreno, Walker, Grealish, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Gvardiol, Bobb, Wright, Lewis

[Mase]

Fuckin about with the team

Take that. Certainly more than good enough side to beat Everton. With a strong bench as well

[s1ty m]

He's going to give himself a headache with that selection. It's going to be extra tricky now. Not impressed.

[blues2win]

Ake left back. Grealish Bernardo and Kevin on the bench. Stones will move up leaving a back three. Another chance for Nunes to shine. Haaland playing with Alvarez. Plenty good enough to beat Everton and a strong bench.

shocked no Jack in the starting XI and Gomez doesn't even make the bench, surely he's injured/sick like Kova?

[blues2win]

Pep alluded to the danger of a flat atmosphere with a 12.30 kick off. Good strong start important

[sheblue]

Didn't see that line up coming. Good old pep never fails to suprise

[Indianablue]

DYCH windinding things up again reference the delay in judgement over 115 charges, yet admits he doesnt know any details about our case. Dickhead, wanker typical of most in football. Everton used to be a bogey team for us years ago, not so much recently. Hope we absolutely batter them. Predict a dirty game, plenty of bookings

[Dubciteh]

Fuckin about with the team

Seems an unnecessary risk doesnt it?

[Nigels Tackle]

why does alvarez start every game?

A chance to go top and give us a boost, even if it’s for a few hours. Don’t see why he has to mess about so much, especially with the defence.
