"Everton can win the Premier League"

Martin Keown just now on FinalScore.

I can't ever remember a pundit say that about us ever.

Far out.

i heard that too... what a great buzz we have this year. although today, 4-1 looked a bit flattering for us at least we are converting more of our chances.

We've now got the joint-best defence in the league with Southampton (15 conceded).

We're not clinical enough to win the league though and we draw too many games.

I'd be ecstatic with a top 4 finish, especially at the expense of Liverpool.

top 4 would be a dream, would be excellent... and hopefully ROM would choose to stay aswell... providing we can afford him
 
As for all of our draws, for most of them, it has been a case of unfortunate not to win rather than lucky not to lose. That bodes well and we can hopefully improve on that.

As for squad depth, most of those around us have bigger squads but are also still in Europe, hence more games. We have a smaller squad but less games to play. Relatively speaking, are we any worse off?

In goal, defensively and in midfield we look as strong as anyone. In attack, we are rather light-weight. For all of his goals, Lukaku has been somewhat inconsistent in his general performances. Still, he's still been scoring goals so good enough. If he gets injured then who will replace him?

Will we win the league? Slim chance and highly doubtful. But out of the last 25 years, this could well be out best chance!!! Realistically, I'll be chuffed to bits to just finish in the top four.

I think this season...And this season only, it would mean much more to me to finish 4th at the expense of man utd more than L'pool.
 

We're going to win the league, screw all this managing expectations crap I've never seen an Everton side with this good of a chance at doing something special in the league and I'm not going to miss the chance to go a bit mental thinking of what could happen. If we do crash and burn then at least I enjoyed the ride while we were on the up and I don't have doubts that maybe my negativity was in some part to blame. Seriously, if we start believing it then maybe Martinez and the players will start believing it too and it might make them start acting like champions.
There's another thing too, I can't be arsed with all of this flying under the radar bull**** because we've been flying under the radar for 20 years now, I want us to show up as a big **** off circle like the alien ship in indepenence day. I want Martinez to say we're going to win the title every week in his press conferences then after we've beat the RS 21-0 at Wembley in April after having already won the title the week before I want Martinez to show up at the post match press conference with a big **** off grin on his face, say "We're Everton aren't we?" and walk out into the sunset with Z cars playing because it was never in doubt. If we want to be at the top we're going to have to learn how to deal with the spotlight sometime so we might as well deal with it now.
It's a slim chance and I know we always do things the hard way but we're Everton aren't we?


Edit: Reading that back it's a bit mad what half a season of bringing a gun to a gun fight does to you.

I like your style. Let's roll.

I like this post. I think its o.k to be a bit deluded for a change because like you said its been far too long since we got excited in the league. Someone mentioned on Sunday that they forgot about the fa cup 3rd round draw because we are still in the mix in the league and that's absolutely spot on. We are usually about 15-20 points off top spot, 4-8 points off fourth and at this time starting to concentrate on the fa cup. I say **** em all and do the double to piss everyone off. Everton aren't we.

very much this.

and yet theres a load of poster on here saying thats kopite talk etc

The players are talking top 4

The manager even said it in his interview

Yet you all try to dampen the actual thought of it

why?

we're there on merit FFS anyone who doesnt believe we'll finish top 4 or better are deluded
 
We need to be on 40 points after 19 games to have a chance of finishing in the top four.

On target to get 80 points if we match the first half of the season by your statement to get 'a chance' of top 4... jesus mate, 80 points for a chance to get 4th, what planet are you on atm ;o
