Relegation 2022/23

[Goodison87]

would love it to be Pochettino ... I think that type of club really benefits from how he plays - but they're obviously too small fry for him these days.

Favourite is Rodgers

Wasn’t so long ago Brenda was fancied by many to succeed Pep! Must have picked the wrong envelopes..

 

[knowing your history]

So next game is hopefully West Ham at home a week today.

This is chance that must be taken to climb up the table now.

West Ham are tricky to break down but they've had a poor start, it's a home game and will also be playing away on Thursday in europe and their record was pretty poor after those games for most of last season.

Win that and get something off Southampton and Man. United and can get back into mid table pack. Not win any of next three and I fear club will just be stuck in bottom 6 beyond the world cup break.

 

[bring back the catt]

Ground out a lot of 1-0 wins that season

Then got snottered by the Gooners in the last game, er 7-i I think it was. @BlueStevie35 called it right by the number of close wins we had which, as we all know, gave us the points if not a good goal difference.

The thing about that season was the fact the rs cried their way into the CL despite having insufficient points. Fast forward 18 years and, whoosh, welcome to the new and improved qualification process for the 'modern' (corrupt) CL.

We lost 4-1 to Arsenal on the opening day as well so were on -10 just from those two games.

Personally not even remotely considering the prospect myself! I've got my eyes on 2 solid cup runs and a couple of youngsters shining through in them.

Momentum is huge. Get the 1st win soon and I think the team will carry confidence into the rest of the season. The performances have been encouraging.

If I recall, it was 6 1-0 wins in a row that really got us up there in the mix

 

[Dame Judi Dench]

West Ham have stopped playing for Moyes. We need to win that game.

Not sure where you've got that idea from. They won their last game in the Europa Conference, were very unlucky not to get something against Chelsea, drew with Spurs and beat Villa

I am intrigued as to what a solid cup run is. We have found it easier to win the league than any cup.

Not losing.
Quicker to win a cup!

 

[The binman chronicles]

In recent Everton terms that is like driving into a bridge wall at 70 mph. Usually a second tier wall too, that we should have easily been able to overcome.

Solid.

 

[Charlie Sweet]

We'll win the FA Cup this year and Frank will lead us to a top 8 finish. Next season will be better too. We're on the up here lads

 

[Oddball]

apart from winning their European game, being unlucky against Chelsea, drawing with one of the best teams in the league and beating Aston Villa away, apart from all that they`ve stopped playing for Moyes.

 

[everton1953]

Apart from Bournemouth it is hard to pinpoint any other teams as likely relegation candidates. The season is unusual in that regular candidates such as Brighton, Palace, Southampton, Fulham etc are all greatly improved teams.
