Relegation

Not open for further replies.
Atm it doesnt matter anymore. We hired frankie who deems it wise leaving our new backs on the bench and continue with the trainwreck we have. I hope he succeeds but, again, its just a few weeks left.

Best of the bunch we could hire, not many people want to inherit the mess left behind by a succession of average managers making average signings. I think Frank will pull us through.
 
A new divide is taking hold.

Relegation realists
...and the don't knows
We have 15 games left, everybody from probably Brentford down is to some extent teetering on the edge.
But as we dont care about all the others and only worry about us, the drop as We look over that black abyss, seems deeper and blacker...especially after a loss.




In a multiverse of infinite possibilities anything can happen, but that doesn't mean can, will or should, happen.
So therefore there are not infinite realities
Only one...

The 'Everton That' reality...with 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 options, (none of this infinite guff.)

Nothing much will happen, all the angst will be for nothing
A villain will appear to relegate us.
An unlikely hero will appear to save us...Rondon, Tosun, Alli, Gomes, or some other hitherto waste of space
A dead / alive / possibly both / probably very annoyed cat in a box, will be involved somewhere.
A complex set of circumstances will, despite our best efforts, doom us.
A complex set of circumstances will, despite our worst efforts, save us.
We all start looking for ways to access next season's Championship games.
There Will be cheese on toast !

I really do hope your right, because I am not overly impressed by any stretch of my imagination about this squads capabilities after what we see most weeks. Can’t keep blaming the managers. Maybe if we paid them by results they may turn up with a better mind set.
 

Frank will drag us over the line. Richarlison, Gray and I think Townsend will get the goals we need to see us safe. With Doucs back in alongside Alan and DVdB we’ll be significantly stronger. Hopefully DCL gets up to speed and bags a few too.
Then again with our defense and Gomes clones, the opposition knows fully well theyll bag a few goals at us no matter what. Leeds hit the bar a few times much too comfortable. And this is why i dont think frank will pull us through. He already cost us 1 valuable point.

Basically all we need is 16 draws, then were home. We were heading for a draw against saints until Frank swopped aAlan. Yes he was almost getting a red but a red carded Allan is still better, more valuable than gomestrying to put a foot against the ball.

But then he did the biggest error: his post match press interview: mr ego, mr self centred actually thinks he can change the minds of our ingrated pieces of 3rd rate footballers and make them play like brasil 1971.

Thats what i hated about benitez too: cannot admit we are a disaster, and there is no hope. Its women and children first, not hollywood football.

Frank and his impossible accent and his expensive backroom staff cannot grab that. This is why we are going down, and actually, it would be fitting. We are living above our standards for way too long.
 
35 points should be enough for survival this season, can see if only being a handful of points, between 11th and 18th.

We'll pick up enough to be safe, just can't afford defeats in our easier home games.

He’s been her for three weeks or something. In that time we’ve played two teams off the park and played our best football of the season at home.

We know the players all crumble when the atmosphere is against them in away games Guardiola would struggle to turn those whimpering wet farts into a team that will go and beat teams away after 6 month, never mind 3 weeks.

Insightful post mate. The only bit that confused me was highlighted in bold. Would one care to explain what you mean here?
