← Everton vs Man City

Who is to blame for this? 🙄

This is becoming a real issue for Everton and costing them valuable points! 😭

scott.shalani4mo ago

The negative Scottish clown bottling S..T house

freddie4mo ago

Don't think it is really, not his fault Ndiaye for example couldn't finish his dinner vs City

rhsmyth5mo ago

The 3rd goal nobody closed down Doku shambolic defending 4/5 players just looking at him schoolboy stuff fcs ! Tarks making too many errors lately maybe ?

brogan5mo ago

Tarks has looked like a 33 year old who has played just about every minute of the season currently. Very frustrating over the last few games

mkevans775mo ago

Tarkowski slipped as he was attempting to stop Doku shooting. It's a pity Alcaraz didn't close him down to prevent Doku shooting instead Alcaraz turned his back. And Doku grabbed a point for City. Alcaraz needs to man up like Obrien Tarkowski and Keane. It's called blocking..a simple school boy Error by Alcaraz cost Everton all 3 points.

brogan5mo ago

He'll likely be out of Moyes' plans for the rest of the season now. Would not be surprised to see him move on over the summer

lawrenceduffy555mo ago

Players they should be able to protect a 2 goal lead, it's happening too often now for it to be bad luck

mark.marston5mo ago

I think Keane and Tarkowski's lack of pace cost us... that Haaland goal changed the whole momentum in a flash. Need quicker cbs next season

brogan5mo ago

There we no leadership shown at all for City's second straight from kick-off. I think their third is perhaps one you could look at Alcaraz and say maybe he should have got out quicker, but their second was an absolute disgrace. There was no spine to our side from kick-off

rhsmyth5mo ago

Moyes fault subs to late as usual and George should have been on for Ndaiye who was nakard and been burnt out since Afcon ! As iv,e said before his use of the squad is abysmal .

brogan5mo ago

George must be thinking what have I done joining these? Feel so sorry for the lad. Signed him on loan in Jan and he's played 155 minutes of football for us in months... madness

phillipsandersonhaigh5mo ago

It,s not " furgy time " any more . Refs will keep the games going till someone scores against Everton. Injury time ? no problem keep going till you score !!!!!!!

brogan5mo ago

They could not care less, could they? No doubt we have to do better as a team, but come on we're up against 12 most of the time

ajmiller17th5mo ago

Three one up, hell at 2 - 1 up we should have parked the bus liked we did for almost the whole of first half

brogan5mo ago

Just need a lot better game management from the leaders in the side. Say what you want about Tarks/Keane but they have been around and for them and even players like Garner not to call every one to get their heads in the game was so, so poor to watch

leeclarke05085mo ago

Some real leaders needed in the summer, the ones we've got at the moment, Pickford aside, just can't do it at this level anymore.

gmahony545mo ago

Bringing on subs late in the game upsets the team balance who up until then we're handling ManCity attack well

brogan5mo ago

The game management was horrible. Even the players on the pitch did not know how to handle the lead. So many times we should have run it into the corner or just hoofed it away up the pitch and we didn't

ptrckbennett5mo ago

Definitely it's down to the team, we just switch off too early in the game when a result is there to be taken.. The ball was in the net for cities 2nd before we even realised they had kicked off.. maybe it's just that we are not used to results in our favour yet but it's time Moyes started to get the credit he deserves!

photographerofkilkenny5mo ago

At 3-1 up against City late on any manager would have parked the bus and won!

brogan5mo ago

You'd hope they got an absolute bollocking for that second goal. Undoubtedly the goal that killed us

amirmir5mo ago

You just have to put it down to a team collective, not one person to blame. Just get it out of your system because it's harming Everton right now

anthonymanley19565mo ago

Sometimes you just have to take it was some goal by doku

mark.marston5mo ago

Exactly this mate

brogan5mo ago

I think this was definitely the one out the three previous games where you go fair enough that's a goal. But perhaps tired legs and tired minds playing a role in recent weeks?

mwelsby95mo ago

How on earth can you blame Moyes, some of our fans always looking for scapegoat

bripcrawford5mo ago

He sanctions the players we buy who plays what formation bringing younger players up.so who else do we blame

patrick.oreilly275mo ago

Agree 100% get off his back moyes has done a fine job. Look where we are in the League and where we were for the last few seasons

vernilley5mo ago

Players lack of concentration or fitness. It's a psychological or physical thing.....not a tactical one

brogan5mo ago

Potentially fitness at this stage of the season leading to a dip in concentration. Regardless, it's cost us a lot of points over the last few weeks

moeratanwar685mo ago

Moyes is to be blame

alangaston1785mo ago

bad substitutes

mark.marston5mo ago

How? Doku nets two worldies

robi5mo ago

Really frustrating. Not sure anyone is particularly to blame. Can't do much about that Doku finish although maybe it could be argued we should have tried to manage those closing mins a bit better? Difficult against a side like City though to be fair. Take the point and move on

calum_jones5mo ago

Overall work effort and putting in the hard work in the last moments is what we are missing. Running out of steam in the context of the game tonight would of been costly, and it was.

calum_jones5mo ago

Think it’s hard to hit the nail of the head of who’s to blame today. Other two results down to work rate from the players and overall game management
