Just heard they've got 7 loan players in their starting XI (Fulham). Thought there was a cap on amount on players you could take on loan.

I'd expect 3 or 4-0 win for City tonight. It could have been a real tricky encounter for them if Calvert Lewin played, James started and Pickford was kept away from the starting line up.

Will be a case of how many for city I expect. Cruel turn of events for Everton to be without their real threat for a rescheduled fixture due to some City subs supposedly having covid. Had a 2 hour Cup tie last week and a days less rest too.

City generally don't do well at Goodison, don't they?

Also where's DCL?
Hamstring injury.

This is the problem. People were baffled before why we were annoyed that our fixture was rearranged but now we have to play them without our best player this season (DCL) and on the back of a bunch of high intense games. We only have to blame ourselves for the Fulham loss as we were absolutely crap but it still sucks.

City won their last 3 league games at Goodison. Everton have a better record away from Goodison this season.

He's injured back for the Liverpool game apparently.

It's mental even more wasn't made of it. Everton were flying at that time too and City were working their way back to form.

Going a bit defensive? Hames on the bench?
Great player but sometimes he gets overrun in midfield and we can't afford him to be a passenger. When we have Allan, Doucoure, DCL and Richarlison all playing we can afford it due to their workrate but if not we can't really.

Makes sense. Is this on BT?
