Why I DON'T think Everton will be relegated

[formerly manx toffee]

Aye, 3 teams go down and not 1 unfortunately.

But surely you agree Southampton will go down ?

so we are arguing over Forest ?

 

[formerly manx toffee]

I'm still in the camp that believes we can get out of it because a lot of the teams around us are awful also. We just have to get some simple organisation and stop the incessant pass back and sideways play that we do every game.

They are petrified

I think Southampton will finish above us. Forest clearly will unless they completely collapse which doesn’t look likely.

We need firepower and a supply line though mate, as at the mo, there‘s just nothing at all there.

Wow. Ok then we disagree on that for sure. At least about Southampton

Agreed but I do think we would be so much better if the wide players were actually coached to put the ball in the box. I lose count of the times our wide men get into a position where they could get the ball in but always take the easy option of backwards or infield.

Us, Borurmouth, Leeds, Southampton, Wolves, Forest in my opinion - three of us will go down.

Changing the manager and window are critical for us.

Wins at Leeds on 15 February and Nottingham Forest on 4 March are critical for us.

I was in the other teams are awful camp but those awful teams keep beating us.

Are either of those likely to happen?

I would say ‘no’.

 

[Drumblue]

If we go down this season..what do you think guys?

Winning 12 games in a season.
Those were the days!

 

[Charlie Sweet]

Our only chance is if DCL catches form and somehow we tighten at the back and put a run together of 1-0s.

Got passed being angry, now it’s just embarrassing.

Agree. That the Hammers are 15th with one win shows how tight it is at the bottom and how similarly bad all the teams are. Any team that can put any sort of streak together will pretty quickly move clear of the danger zone, so the urge to go for the new manager bounce becomes very attractive. Southampton, Bournemouth and Wolves have already gone for that, doing it a second time in a season risks team morale. That's in our favour I think.
