*** Toffees v City Semi Final 1st Leg MATCH THREAD ***

[Grandad Rosler]

I was thinking we would at least leave with a draw tonight. Then we kicked off. No urgency whatsoever which makes it so hard to watch.

Glad Navas got his goal but to throw it away like that straight afterwards is criminal. We look nothing short of clueless defensively.

That sub. Just fuck off now Pellegrini. I'm done with him.

[Mase]

If proof was needed ,his last substitution. Everton down to 10 men, we are 2-1 down needing a goal, Sterling, and Kelechi, on the bench he brings on Fernando.

Madness. I'd like him to come out and explain that decision.

[bigblue]

Pellegrini lovers can give me all the shit they want.

He really is stitching us up.He is deliberately undermining our season, out of fucking spite.

I rest my case

His substitutions make no sense and benefit the opposition nearly every game.

If you constantly say it's 9 o'clock you'll be right once a day, but annoying as fuck the rest of the time. So congrats I guess

[london blue 2]

Ssn just showed highlights. Mentioned lukaku was inches away from doubling lead (no mention that it was offside). And not a single mention of the penalty.

Proper jokers.

[everyonehatesus]

Pellers has to know he's fucking going either way at the end of this season, just gutless.

[30yeargloryhunter]

Demichellis terrible when he came on. Toure put a terrible performance in again. Getting sick of seeing us being denied stonewall penalties. Wish we would pass the ball faster Jesus were slow. Pellegrini had a shocker

[Original Dub]

There is no doubt we played with ten men and probably worse than that, they had twelve

I've never seen yaya give the ball away so often.
When the guy who's supposed to be spraying the ball around is spraying it to the opposition, it's very difficult for anyone around him to look good.

I've not been his case before, but that was his worst performance for us imo. It's one thing to be invisible, it's another to aid the opposition.

Overall, happy going to the Etihad with only one goal to over turn.

Had Everton gone for it at the end, they could have made the final.

Nope, I think it's a little different. He wants to go out on a high and by doing so is seriously micro-managing and not going for the kill.

He wants the CL with the Prem, also with a possibility of a cup. If you're going all the way the LC is the easiest one as the FA Cup kicks in at the wrong time with regard to the other major cups.

It's clear as gin he is gone in the summer everyone knows it.

[Blackadder]

Disappointing but not disastrous. On tonight's performance none of our players would get a starting place for Everton. Can someone do an age check on Yaya? He's playing like a 40-odd year old.

[Beefymcfc]

I love that, Gollums saying he thought it wasn't a penalty in real time but then contradicted and told its a clear penalty and shurs the fuck up.

Simple, it's a penalty. But why did Sky choose not to show it for 15 minutes?

[zabbadabbado]

How does a team with a plethora of attacking talent, and seasoned internationals like ours, Consistently play such, slow, dull, uninspiring football.And struggle to score goals.

Pellegrini has fucking destroyed us. It is heartbreaking.

The team is now a mirror image of him.

[Hazy2]

Baffled, Demi should not be anywhere a team on our journey, Pellers is so laid back it is having a pretty shit effect on us, dare I suggest we look unfit. We play at such a slow tempo or are we not able to play for 90 mins.

[Nick]

QUIZ Q: When will pellegrini et al realise that yaya and demi are finished?

fucks me off that mangala is constantly hauled off, tried loaned out to destroy his confidence when he never does the same to under performing cunts.

YES i went mad when he brings fernando on, but we couldnt get the ball back and I had just said 'i miss de jong' . Barry MOTM and an assist says it all. Delph isn't as good as either, but hes still a better CM than yaya.

the main fuck up was bringing demi on who could have cost us 3 goals. That stops us being able to bring on sterling and nacho to face a tired defence.

I say it every week but WHEN THE FUCK will we play our 2 wingers? The 2 that destroyed teams before we signed de bruyne and the 2 that played in our best away performance of the season.

I'd like to see sterling, navas AND nacho on the pitch at the same time, but that will NEVER happen.

Aguero plays shite as a lone forward, he comes to deep.

[budfox]

I just can't imagine that this would be happening with Guardiola at the helm.

Sorry, but please just fuck the fuck off

Why? Am I not entitled to my opinion on here?

Maybe if you posted about fucking ANYTHING else other than whining about pellegrini, or if you appeared ANY other time besides when we lose, then maybe people might not think of you as a fucking joke.

When you came on here first, all you did was bang on about ROBERTO MANCINI. You wouldn't even call him Mancini ffs. You have a major hard on for the guy and that's fine. But stop carrying on like pellegrini robbed your girlfriend you fucking muppet.

[Nick]

and fuck off moyes you shit cunt.

thats 3 straight pens in 3 straight matched we've been denied.

Oh ffs.

[everyonehatesus]

So the fa cup to bounce back then, I do love the fa cup weekends. I just hope some of our players do too.

[30yeargloryhunter]

We will go through
Going to try enjoy rest of season because I think this is going to be last we see of few of these players. As an aside what is wrong with Silva? Seems pissed off all the time and is well off the boil. If we do get Guardiola some of these players are going to have to start putting a shift in or will be on way out. Lot of bottling challenges tonight
