    See Rio has gone balls in with the jinx of jinxes
    Lmao
    Some very worried Utd fans out there <laugh>
    I think there is one on here too lol

    needn’t be
    There is a reason no one has done the quad

    we wont do it
    CL is whoever get through on City’s side
    PL is done - city will not drop more points than Liverpool now
    And I genuinely think Chelsea - on form and without Lukaku starting are every bit as good as both City and LFC and Chelsea will win the cup

    Good attempt to reverse the reverse jinx, or something.

    You'll win the CL.

    I think City got the league but there's no way in a million years Chelasea are as good as City or Liverpool. They could yet win the Cup though of course.

    Be funny if you lot just won the league Cup but it's not going to pan out like that.

    That's the reality of this quadruple stuff, we might not win anything else and up up with the league cup only. Yes great to win a trophy but would be disappointing now.

    We have a chance at more and that's it, all this other talk is just hype for the TV.

    I'd take the league now in a heartbeat. I suspect if City could win just one, it'd be the CL. 2019 all over again. :emoticon-0107-sweat

    Yeah you'd both want the other more but don't personally see it playing out like that as I can't see them dropping any more points in the league and think you'll be too good for whoever you play in the final.

    Backed Chelsea for FA Cup not long after the sanctions hit so sticking with it.

    Just watch Gary Lineker on MoTD or on Twitter if you want to see an (impartial!) Evertonian sobbing. :emoticon-0143-smirk

    I suspect City has maybe a 75% chance of winning the league and us only about 25%... That right there is our biggest hurdle to the quad.

    Maybe 55% chance of winning FA cup.

    75% chance of beating Villarreal in semis and let's say 55% against City or RM in the Final.

    To me that puts our odds at:
    .25*.55*.75*.55
    Less than 6%.

    The longer City go without dropping points in the PL the lower our odds of the quad will get.

    To be in everything still at this point of the season is an achievement in itself.

    One cup final at a time and see what happens is my vibe

    The longest anyone has ever lasted and still been in with a chance of the quad. I think we've beaten the previous time by about a month now if I recall correctly. /Someone can fact check me because I can't be arsed.
