The Now-Irrelevant 2024/25 Relegation Battle (Without Everton!)

[Gilbert..]

What would you take right now.
Evertons 15 goals and 25 against.
Or
Wolves 31 goals scored and 45 against.

Its more or less the same GD

Basaically would you take being able to score your way out of trouble or digging out 0-0s.

Under a new manager Goodison would be fearsome & a good chance of results.

Under Dyche ?.....its as you where.

Goodison is only fearsome when a big fish comes in. And we generally play better against those teams due to our personnel.

Goodison isn't fearsome against anyone outside of the top 6 bar maybe Newcastle, these days

The goals all day long. At least the game isn’t over as soon as you go 1-0 down.

Another great night of entertainment being an Evertonian, watching the game of dreams that was Wolves v Forest, cheering on the mighty Forest.

Absolutely soul destroying seeing teams playing or trying to play actual footy, and also totally exhausting having to support whatever team our relegation rivals are playing.

Sick and tired of it, and of what our club and fans have become.

The state we are in I consider Villa & Spurs big fish these days.

Great result tonight lads, Up the Toffees!

"Wolves are safe" etc etc etc...

It's football. There'll be a surprise. They'll get 3 points at the very least.

I don't see it

Hopefully their bounce is done now and they drop like a stone

Just looking at their fixtures and I doubt they'll pick up more than 3/4 points before their game against us in March.

Ipswich will fall apart too, and S'ton are already gone.

Also exasperating that just a few good forward players with pace and a coach who set us up properly we could be doing what Forest are doing maybe not to that scale but certainly better than this...

I'd take the better defence. Probably easier to turn it around to score more than it is to concede less in the remainder of the season

I am taking our current goals for and against tally as we have a four goal swing on them right now on GD and that is tantamount to being an extra point in front of them.

Which coukd well be vital come May,

Didn't we try for Elanga?

Couldn't afford him/tried to loan?

Imagine the Fanbase fume if we’d have spent good money on Elanga, another Utd reject?

NO AMBITION.
