Everton v Manchester City

Kylo Ren

**** sake Pienaar.

Will I Amnt

One of them was always going to go. Thought it would have been Fellaini.

Spectacular dive! Did you see the way he jumped both feet off the ground so dramatically, just to get his opponent sent off. Players are such warriors these days.

Dangerous challenge by Pienaar. Clear red I reckon, but have seen them only yellow as well. Him and Fellaini out now for a couple of games.

it was a 2nd yellow card he will only miss one game.

5starpool

Come on City, do us a favour please.

Straight red I thought? I know he was booked earlier as well though.

Darkglasses

Should've been a yellow for Milner

adox

Gotta be a yellow for Milner.

Will I Amnt

Ref has lost the run of himself.

double GG

should have been a yellow for Milner.

You idiot Pienaar, two clear yellows.

Fellaini suspended for two games and Pienaar for one. Just when you thought you'd seen the last of Phil Neville...

ctrl-alt-delete

Ref not making it easy for himselft, Milner should have been booked.

Graphics showed it as second yellow although only seen the red from the ref.

Yeah, I think they were showing the replay and we missed the yellow being issued before. I think so anyhow.

double GG

Great saves!!

Columbia

It was a second yellow according to the BBC, I think the cameras might have missed the yellow being flashed and only showed red.

markie29

that was a great 2nd save by Mucha!

You are right, I watched it again. Second red though of the season, so 2 game ban.

Hercule Poirot

And now Everton are down to nine men - what the f**k is Moyes thinking?

Gavlor

What is moyes thinking? Naismith?? Sweet mother

markie29

strange choice? Naismith has been muck for Everton

Lumbo

Naismith is useless

Not the choice of words I would have used

David Moyes: tactical genius, or escaped mental patient?

Next tactical switch: Anichebe off, Neville on

I'll answer that in about 15 mins

Fuhrer

Naismith is gash

Will Everton fans still want Moyes out even if they hold on here?

Cantona's Collars

Distin should have done better there,I await the 94th minute goal from City.

adox

Ref bottled it there with Dzeko.

double GG

Would have loved Distin to score there. just because of Hart's positioning and being in no mans land etc... etc...

Hes bottled every decision today, lucky for him Pienarr was already on a yellow for that tackle that should have been a straight red

Considering they have had no money I can't believe that any Everton fan wants him out anyhow. Unless they get an injection of cash I would be amazed if they were not worse with almost any other manager they could get.

double GG

Anichebe has been very good today.

Ardent

Dzeko is such a lazy waster.

Great performance this from Everton, Man City just can't compete.

applehunter

Coleman has been quality today.

mike65

Scott Sinclair is on the pitch

Yeah, but at this stage of the game you need someone to run around and work tirelessly. Can't believe some Everton booed Moyes for that substitution.

Fuhrer

Christ, who let Naismith take the corners?

Really?

5starpool

Inside, bottled it again.

double GG

WOW... Refereee.....

Lumbo

This ref is a joke

Fuhrer

Hahaha, oh lord. What an awful ref

adox

Ref is useless. Pen and second yellow.

I don't know about others, but I would still prefer a new manager. I don't hate Moyes, I have immense respect for him, but this whole thing is going stale. We've seen this from Everton a dozen times before, choke on the big occasion and then turn it on when there's scraps at stake. Today is nice (if we hold on) but it really doesn't make any difference. Yeah it gives us a chance in the "finish ahead of Liverpool" trophy, but last week was the important game, and Moyes bottled it again. He put out the wrong team with the wrong tactics, and once again the fans are left hoping for scraps.

markie29

thats a penalty!!.....my god this has been a shocking performance by the referee today.

Will I Amnt

That just caps off a dismal display of officiating today.

me89

That is shocking from the ref, bottled it.
