Everton on the brink...

[Cowbridge Blue]

...as Burnley win again with 2 late goals at Watford.

Everton have games in hand but are 5 points behind Burnley and Leeds.

And in their 6 remaining games, they have to face Chelsea, Leicester, Arsenal ad Palace who are on decent run

Two games in hand yet. Still could get out of trouble.

You'd much rather have points on the board than games in hand.

I'm a cautious person and I just don't want us all to chortle too soon.

I think it's between Leeds and Everton. Leeds have Arsenal, Chelsea, Brighton and Brentford to play. Everton's next two are against Chelsea and at Leicester. Burnley have Villa at home next time out. I think that if Everton are still 5 points adrift after their next two they'll have too much to do.

I’m torn between who I want relegated. Everton would be a massive shake up to the football league and could lead to some interesting years ahead if they don’t immediately go back up.
Leeds are Leeds so them getting relegated would please me greatly.

Also Liverpool and Leeds are two decent cities to have an away day. Although I do prefer Liverpool.

Love to see Everton relegated.

Billy Big Bollocks attitude from many in that thread and, although I'd prefer it were Liverpool, it just might help these know all scousers develop something they have never had when it comes to football. Humility.

Re: Everton on the brink...

I think they're coming down. Too much to make up, and not enough games to do it in, plus they have to play some top sides, and their manager does not look like he's going to pull anything special out of the bag.
On the downside, they will be nailed on to go straight back up, which reduces the slots available for those 'other' sides to make the step up. Not that I expect Cardiff to be in that group, but you never know.
Of course, they could do a Leeds, go into total free-fall.

I looked at Leeds run in this morning. They could easily go down instead of Everton. I guess it's going to go down to the wire. This is the first season since that advent of the Premier League that I have ever taken an interest in it, unless if course we are in it. An exciting relegation run in for sure

Can’t stand Pickford but he’s just made 2 world class saves to keep Everton ahead.

Chelsea don’t seem too bothered about the score line
