Expectations for the Coming Season ?

[Rooney_Tunes]

lower table/relegation battle all season, lampard possibly getting sacked around christmas/new year if we get off to a shocking start.

OK...

I'd snap your hand off for 40 points/ 17th right now

Careful Frank doesn't snap your hand off for being so silly.

I just don’t want to be put through what I was last season. Would be nice to be looking forward to games every week. As things stand I am looking forward to welcoming United to Goodison next week.

I have 2 weeks booked off late November/early December to go to Thailand (first holiday in 4 years)where I want to be drinking beer and enjoying the World Cup knowing Everton are in a secure position in the league. It can’t be overstated how important it is for us to remain in the league with the stadium build and global recession.

I reckon we will finish 10th, I have faith in super Frank and we don’t have the perfect storm of negativity that we started with last year. A couple more midfielders and we will be fine.

Brilliant!

I think if we can keep this consistency up until xmas and add another decent attacker in January we could get top half.

I think if injuries creep in with grey, Gordon, Iwobi then we would really struggle to create anything. So hopefully they mostly stay fit until the World Cup.

Defensively and midfield we are well stacked. I think get rid of Mina and/or Keane in January and invest in a quick attacker that can play across front 3 and we look good.

Top 10 and a good cup run or 2.

Consolidate then add the odd new face in Jan / next summer.
This group need to be allowed to grow without wild expectations.....for now

 

[Westend Blue]

Top 6 of spurs, arse, Man U, city, chels, RS is pretty much nailed on. Reckon we could push 7th with a good run

 

[NorthernBlue]

He’s fixed the glaring problems we’ve had for years in that teams waltzed through our midfield and our defenders would flap at everything. But we don’t create enough so mid table is the best we can hope for for now. Then next summer work on the attack

 

[Somerset Blue]

A fit Calvert-Lewin( I know not exactly a given, but I still have hope) and another striking option in the Jan window, then we should be looking at a Top 10 finish again. This team has a good strong base now.

 

[Old Blue 2]

Top 6 of spurs, arse, Man U, city, chels, RS is pretty much nailed on. Reckon we could push 7th with a good run

With their next two games being Arsenal away and Man City at home, they could be comfortably in the lower reaches of the Premiership after those two games and struggling to get top half, given their recent form. I think only VAR will save them (given the lifeline it threw to them yesterday for their first goal...)

Or Not...

My glass is always half empty. lol

It was very valid at the time , context to everything. Don't count too many of your chickens just yet though . We've all seen what a few key injuries can cause and the drop in quality is there to see.

 

[Lee Smith]

I don’t think we’ve quite got enough about us yet to challenge City, but the rest is up for grabs

 

[BluePaul86]

Minimum of a top half finish with the added bonus of a decent cup run or 2.

Anything else is poor given how the squad looks now.

 

[Toffeepot]

I'm still sticking with mid table and consolidation and anything more would be an enjoyable bonus
