ForeverEverton
Player Valuation: £50m
We’ve competed against all of last seasons top 6 in all competitions, only the two Manc teams (twice but two out the 4 settled late on) and Chelsea have beaten us. We took 4 points off both Liverpool and Leicester, beat Spurs twice, beat Arsenal and Chelsea at home and drew at Old Trafford
We are gradually getting there but it was never going to be done in 18 months, there’s still too much clutter in the squad, but yet we’re minimal points off a European place, with 10 games left
You`ve reverted the top teams to the SKY 6 and Leicester, have you been brain washed by the media?
The top teams currently are Man City, Man Utd and Chelsea. Leicester aren`t in that bracket, I think they will fall away and the rest of the league is much of a much-ness. 2 defeats against City both by 2 goals and I expect the last game to go that way, beaten twice by Utd but a creditable draw at OT and beat a Lampard Chelsea before being turned over by Tuechels Chelsea which is an altogether different animal.
Granted we took 4 points from Leicester and Liverpool, and 3 from Spurs, Arsenal and Chelsea BUT on the other side of the coin we have
Taken just 3 points from Southampton, Fulham, Leeds across 2 games
1 point from Burnley across 2 games
No points from West Ham but only played 1 game
No points from Newcastle across 2 games
Remaining fixtures are tough....... I`d say the next 2 are MUST WINS!
Palace at home, considering the way we have played against lower teams at home
Brighton away
Tottenham at home, does the fact weve beaten them twice already mean we roll these over? No and I`m sure they will be up for a bit of payback
Arsenal away, no idea how this will go. Depends what Everton and Arsenal turn up, probably 2 of the most inconsistent teams in the league.
Aton Villa away, they have the second best defensive record in the PL and look a threat going forward, they like us have good results but poor ones also.
West Ham away, we know what to expect from any Moyes side, just as capable of winning this one as losing it.
Sheff Utd at home, nailed on win! Surely?
Wolves at home, I fancy us to win this one. But I said that about other home defeats.
Man City away, party atmosphere at the Etihad with them collecting the trophy, possibly a few fanbs back by then. Everton are too nice we wouldn`t want to upset that. Nothing on it for them but will still roll us over fairly comfortably.
TBC Aston Villa at home, I worry about Aston Villa, with Grealish in the side they can mix it with any team in this league and play good football. Defensively strong and can score goals. They are 5 points back with a game in hand and we play them twice, lose one of them and we could concede a position. Lose to Arsenal and Spurs we could concede another 2 positions. That would leave us 10th from a season which promised so much....
Everton That!
