Relegation and promotion battle thread - squeeky bum time.

I think Watford is their game in hand.

 

I hope so, but Leicester won't be full strength because they will do what they did vs us and just play the reserves..

 

Watford won't beat Everton... They're absolutely ****e.

Even Bruce's nufc looked like brasil there

 

I know, I'm simply saying Everton have a game in hand over Leeds and that is it, and I think Everton will beat Watford purely because Watford will be already relegated by then, and Everton have everything to play for.

 

Everton are a better team too.. I think people overlook the fact they were without literally their entire defense, Delph, Richardson, lewin, Allan and others for months... They've now got them back and low and behold results started to improve.

Everton definitely the most likely to pick up points in at least 3 of the remaining games plus the odd unexpected result potentially.

Leeds and Burnley I don't fancy them much in any of their remaining games.

 

Don't underestimate how awful Everton are away from home - worst away record in the league and they've taken 1 point away from home from the last 36 available.

Watford might be down by then, but taking Everton down with them will still be a masisve victory for Woy - he'll leave in the summer and at least want something to remember his time at Watford for, and destroying Everton and Lampard will be a victory for him.

 

Isn’t that where we lost?

 

No we drew and I don't quite know how.. It was the most one sided game we'd had all season.

 

I thought there was a game under Steve Bruce where we dominated but ended up losing 1-0?

 

Not sure, but I remember Watford away because I spent all week telling @Geordieginola that a point is ok and he was adamant that we got relegated.

 

I'm going with the 3 to be relegated as Norwich, Everton and Chelsea

 

Watford won’t catch up with Everton

 

No, but they'll escape at the hands of Chelsea being unable to fulfil next years fixtures

 

But that’s why Everton will escape

 

Did people applaud the sacking of Sean Dyche too soon? Burnley getting beat today could be curtains for them...

 

I agree and they have some hard games.

 

Injury to Tarkowski too, Burnley's squad suddenly looking quite threadbare. Things definitely swinging in Everton's favour right now sadly.

 

Evercunts

 

The keepers have been the difference. Flap by Schmeichel. And, it pains me to say, couple excellent saves for Pickford.

 

****ING ****! **** EVERTON!

I BLAME CHAOS!!!
