*** Official City v Everton Matchday Thread ***

[Dameerto]

Lots of good performances throughout the team, one minor blemish letting them score first though. I'm still pissed off with Naismith for pushing Kolarov.

[Slim]

Under the circumstances that is a fantastic result/performance. I can't remember the way we bossed Everton around like that.

5-2, didn't you and I see that game together?

[phips]

Why does Kone's shirt say: KONE . A

That doesn't make any sense.

the period is what's throwing me off but he's Ivorian like Yaya so the reversal makes sense

[aaron bond]

That was a superb game of Premier League football - plenty of goals, some top notch attacking play, strong tackling, and plenty of fouls and yellow cards too!

Great win for us.

Best pass of the game for me...Look so much better and solid when he's playing.

apart from last week at Villa where he was a waste of shirt imo. But I think that was just a one off and today he was back to his best (his usual self)

Great three points today well done City! Happy days!

I do not recall that game at all. When was it?

We watched us getting beat 2 nil at Goodison. Stephen Jordan got sent off.

[Sideshow Bob]

i dont know why no one is making runs at the posts for these cuts across goal...

Edin does all the time and he could have had three today if picked

Yes I'm sure that would have happened.

My thoughts exactly.

You might have gone travelling by that point, it was the game we needed for 40 points and safety, Wanchope got a hatrick IIRC.

Here in Australia I have to listen to frikkin Mark Bosnich give his opinion on the game

[Green & Blue]

Veey happy the lads bounced back with a top performance against a good side.

By far the best team in the league to come to Eastlands so far this season.

By far, they gave us a game.

Love Milner. England doesn't deserve him. He worked his fucking socks off today and he's always, always linked up well with Silva and Zaba on the right. It's one of our genuine strengths.

[Douglas Higginbottom]

After a worrying start that was a good performance.And I am sure I am not alone to say how good it was to have David back in the team. Great touch,great awareness and gives the rest a passing option all the time.Still not that convincing in the middle of the park where Yaya can be bypassed so easily but we were much better in the 2nd half.

Was that because we were better organised or was it because we go hold of Lukaku better? Milner out in a good shift as ever,Negredo looks the business every game,Aguero looked pretty crap most of the time but scored a great goal.He should not have taken the pen either as Milner would have buried it.100% confidence if Milner takes it and about 25% with Aguero.

Pleased for Lescott after a shaky start.Still totally unsure re Nasti as he does things which are so naive in and around the box and for me it was a pen for that push on Lukaku.

But most of all a great 3 points against a decent team although I think Everton will now find their rightful place in the middle of the table.

[Sideshow Bob]

Nasri excellent again. Change the formation if nec, but pls get him back in starting 11.

[Tokyo Blue]

I think the manager saw this everton game as a priority over the Bayern game. His selections certainly point to that and I have got no problem at all with it, to be honest.

A very good performance all round. I am very happy with that win. A good job of work from all players used. I was particularly pleased with Nasri's attitude, the way both Lescott and Nastasic shackled Lukaku after Vinnie went off and the development of Kolarov under Pellgrini is a revelation. Aguero's attitude is also first class, not letting the missed chances get to him at all.

everton will trouble a lot of the "top" teams this season. As a club I have got no affection for them at all at all but you can't help but like Roberto Martinez and how he goes about things.
