Relegation 2022/23

[matty1878]

We got relegated with Dixie Dean and Ted Sagar in the side.

No one is ever safe.

But if we win on Monday we will be good.

them says to now… jesus mate the clubs about to fall apart

RIP

Leicester will pump this fragile Everton team..... no 2 ways about it.....

What I find astonishing is when we had limited Funds and you look at the team under Martinez in the 1st season we had Baines Coleman Distain, Jagielka, Stones,Oviedo, Hibbert, Barkley. Barry, Jimmy Mac, Osman, Lukaku, Mirrallas, Deloufeu and Peinaar. None of the players in the current team would get in ahead of these players. When I try to look at it objectively I’m staggered by the level of recruitment at our club in the last 7 years. I don’t think you could do worse if you was actively trying to derail the club.

100%. You can reel them off but my top 5 that i questioned at the time they signed
28m bolasi
25m morgan schneiderlin
27m michael keane
25m ben godfrey
And last of all. The worst signing ever made by this club. 30m alex iwobi.

There are quite a few honourable other mentions like 100million for tosun, walcott gbamin and gomez.

Theres 9(there are more) players we've got virtually nothing in return.
Atrocious recruitment.

If you look at it logically then Brentford are big favourites to beat Forest and Bournemouth are big favourites to beat Leeds. That would mean us going into the Leicester game knowing that a win would take us up to 16th place.

COYB.

So it’s not perhaps the most likely outcome of the weekend, but it’s certainky a long long way from impossible ….

and some have given up already!

Forest are a worry for me, I had them down a few weeks ago but they’ve had some semi decent performances. I think their game tomorrow will be closer than most think.

They’ve got Southampton at home next week which they will massively fancy themselves. Meaning one more win in the other 4 and they’re basically home and dry.

We will be relegated by the Bournemouth game.......

18. Leeds Uted
19. Everton
20. Southampton

Anyone who hasn’t accepted relegation by now needs to take themselves away into a lonely room and find a way to come to terms with it. Last night proved the fans can’t drag them over the line. There’s nothing in the tank with this squad. Zero.

Forest have the worst away record in the League by miles. They have taken 6 points from a possible 48 away from home. I expect them to beat Southampton but I can't really see where they are likely to pick up any more points.

Stanley mills scored again for the kids - still won’t get a sniff of first team action.

Not looking good is it lads and lasses.
I wouldn't be surprised if we finished bottom.
And we'd deserve it. least number of wins in the league and least number of goals scored.
To escape we need wins and to get wins we need goals.
Getting to be a hopeless situation..

I can easily see us coming bottom. In past years it's always been a case of thinking we would be a bit unlucky to go down as we are better than that, this year though not at all, if we do drop we will absolutely deserve it.

 

[ForeverEverton]

In the last 5 games we need 2 more points than Forest and Leicester, 3 more points than Leeds.... here is the fixtures for all teams, we need some wins, I can`t see any.... I`m sure the team will try but they just aren`t good enough, we don`t survive from here especially when Forest have Southampton at home so we will need 6 more points than Forest.

I still want to know why Doucoure is on 100k+ a week. He had been relegated twice, nobody else was in for him and he was probably on about 20-30k at Watford. Why are we paying him that much?

I kind of get Iwobi and Mina as they were probably on decent money at their former clubs but you probably could have given Doucoure 60k and he would bite your hand off for it.

I cant see us getting another point.

Not being defeatist or anything, just honest. We are an utter abomination.

When you start to analyze a bit more you see the issues. 7 of the starting 11 against newcastle came from relegated teams.

I'm not totally against relegated players as such but these players should be 5-10m punts not 25m players getting boatloads of money.

I have just been trawling the football pyramid looking for a club who has scored less than us this season and am around level 7-8 where the clubs sound like train stations instead of football teams and I still aint found a worse record.
