Brentford, Watford, Palace our best chances of that

We’ve had some decent wins at home to Chelsea over the years

We beat arsenal and Liverpool away from home last season

It ain’t over until the fat lady sings

It's not good of course, it's been garbo all season. Id still rather be where we are than where Burnley are, even with the fixtures.

Just have to keep fighting but we need some quality in front of goal. The amount of chances we squandered against Burnley and Leicester is ridiculous. Good news is the defence looks a whole lot more solid since Keane, holgate and kenny have disappeared from it. Just don't go into meltdown at anfield, the last thing we need is a hiding and a drop in confidence.
 
Its probably expected that we lose or draw against Liverpool so its been factored in predictions. But I think the more concerning thing is if Burnley win their earlier game, they'll be ahead of us in the table, and even though we have a game in hand, that's gotta give Burnely hope they can get out of it. If they were 6 or 7 points back, then they wouldn't even bother.
 

Hi, I'm from Melbourne. I've been lurking on the site for years. In the absence of having billions to buy the team off Moshiri, the only thing I can do to support the team is to open an account on here. I've been staying up late and getting up at 4:45 am to watch the games.

Fwiw, credit to the fans who were at the Newcastle game. I woke up to watch it like I said I do and the oomph from the fans in the stadium could be felt through the screen even though I was half asleep.

But I'm just one guy in Melbourne. Idk anyone else who goes for Everton. Idk how you guys from Liverpool can live through this, it's a lot worse than my AFL team, Carlton, getting wooden spoons (Which they've done a lot of in the last 20 years).
 
Why do people keep saying we need 3 wins ?
Burnley have won 5 in 32 and have 6 games remaining - why do we think they’re suddenly picking up 9 points?
If anyone watched them play Southampton you’ll know they were absolutely abysmal in the first 20 odd minutes and could’ve been 3-0 down, should’ve been at least two down if Romeu wasn’t pretending to be Richarlison versus Leicester. Then their right back scored the goal of his life, they grew in confidence and Southampton weren’t arsed anymore. This doesn’t make Burnley good!

I feel horrible and nervous about the run in too, but when I take a step back for a second I’d still rather be in our position than theirs.

We need to match or beat Burnley’s point tally from now until the end of the season. If we win every game, we’ve automatically done it.

Why do we always talk about things that never happened? Regardless of how they played they’ve got 4 points from 2 games. “They should have” scenarios don’t keep us up.
 
Last 5 results for both Everton and Burnley - same points return. So we are in a better position than 5 matches ago, as we are still ahead and games are running out. Still worried though.

I think we have an air of pessimism as Burnley now have attained 4 points in a week.
Which is 4 points more than similar posts forecast just before those games!

Hello I’m also from Melbourne, welcome not only can you support the team via this website, but if you wanted to, you could watch and subscribe to Evertonians on YouTube as well, every sub helps them. Many of them do an unbelievable job posting regularly and its not as easy for them as other ‘big teams’.

I’m sorry you follow Carlton and you had such a terrible run, but you did have an all time great final back in 95 defeating my Cats. I don’t follow AFL anymore though.

Its actually rather lonely supporting Everton overseas, everyone just follows the top 4. Probably the ‘smartest’ choice lbh.
 
I don’t get why our managers don’t really change starting 11 that much even when things are going bad, Even going back to Moyes time he didn’t change much. I can understand if it isn’t broken don’t fix it but when it is broken (like much of this season) we have pretty much seen the same players turn out time and time again and don’t perform, but the managers still stick with it.
Lately Lampard has changed things up a bit which has coincided with some players return injury, but for example against West Ham had Gomes been fit no way would Holgate have played in midfield, I think Holgate did ok that game (Gomes would not have done well in that role). Dom’s been out a lot, Rondons played at times Richy has also played up top (even though he is better on the left) why hasn’t Tosun played, yes I know we want rid but we are still paying wages to him. Dobbin hasn’t had a sniff neither has Alli who did help the other night, we just don’t really use our squad right at all.

I’m not say any of these changes would have made a difference but at least trying something different would have been nice to see, atm when fit Dom and Gray are constantly getting picked and they have shown absolutely nothing for ages, tbh it does my head at times.Sorry this post was so long.
 
Burnley not winning tomorrow is huge. If they get back to back wins with another winable game on the way, that doesn't bode well. Throw in the fact our next two games are difficult and it starts to look very bleak.
