2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

[Bebeto]

10 points gap but not sure how we are going to play in the coming games...maybe we can try keane as a winger...crazy that we don't even have one or 2 youngsters from the u21 that can plug the gap for a few weeks.

Leicester have to better us by 11 points and Wolves 9 points for us to go down.

Both of them.

Not happening

 

[knowing your history]

Can keep clocking up draws and odd win at Goodison I'm sure as long as the defenders stay fit. Ndiaye being out for any period will impact more on the aways I think where you need quick counters.

That general performance tonight dosen't lose at home to Man. United or West Ham never mind Ipswich or Southampton.

The injuries stop anything much over 40 points I suspect so only danger is if Wolves and one of Leicester/Ipswich goes mad and gets to 36/37 points.

Correct. It’s not just the points either. We’ve just given one of the best teams in Europe a hell of a game, our performance level under Moyes is miles clear of those teams down there. We are a mid table side now.

 

[Sussex]

That table looks a whole lot better now. We are clear and won't have to worry about relegation this year. Between the bottom 4 now.

Moyes had done well and I bet he is absolute loving it that he is above West ham.

Spurs v Utd at the weekend. If results go our way we could be as high as 12th

Looking in rear view mirror now I hope.

I think the key is now getting results in the next few weeks.

Think Palace could well be a write off based on lack of options and emotion and quick turnaround but need to be picking up results against all of Man. United, Brentford, West Ham and Wolves. Get to 32/33 points and this season is all but done.

Only get the odd draw and suddenly it's 29/30 points going into a brutal April so they'd still be a bit of doubt as the teams below will win a game or two in that period I'm sure so gap will close a bit.

 

[Bob Elstone]

The one player apart from Pickford we desperately didn't want to see get injured has just been taken off. We're not safe yet. We have no squad, still petrified here.

We’re safe.

Still think big nose has let us down with a lack of reinforcements. Injuries piling up.

I was a lot more confident after the leicester game, as defeat that match could have put us in trouble still. A bit more better after tonight. But i still have apprehension in myself been the Everton Fan that i am, till its done and dusted,as we could still lose a ton of games. But as others say, other clubs need to win many games to catch us, which they've hardly done. More clubs around us have helped as if we are classed by some as still been in it,so are others easily

Moyes bump has me in a lot better mode. Players are actually playing again.

You defo get night sweats about relegation still

 

[sbbefc]

Has a team ever gone down after being 10 points clear with 14 games to go?

 

[ToffeeTim]

10 points is a good gap. Every point makes a big difference when you are down the bottom.

Still long way to go but we're in a good position. Far better than I expected after Moyes took over
