    We're now also guaranteed top half finish. A win tomorrow night guarantees a top 8 finish which most of us would have been delighted with.

    Like the cliche goes “take it one game at a time”. Forget the speculation on how many wins or points we might possibly need. Focus on Everton only, then Southampton.
    For any hopes I’d say I’m looking up to trying for third though but we’ll see

    Top 8 was what I wanted. Top 6 was the dream. Top 4 would be crazy and if we fell short, we've shown enough about us to continue to kick on.

    We need a result tonight though. We have a Villa performance in us as well as those Spurs types ones too.

    Enjoy the journey. One day we will rule the league

    Everton will be with players that they've had missing and their fans have their meet the buses militant plans tonight.

    If Newcastle shut them up early that would be nice and yes we've seen this Newcastle team fold vs Aston villa.

    It's under the lights away from home and Everton are fighting for survival.

    It’s just gonna be a scrappy match. A bit like like the one in March last year which we lost.

    Having said that we are a different beast now and I thus feel we will win.

    A draw wouldn't be a bad result tbh If they beat Southampton on Sunday.

    This is going to be a very partisan atmosphere tonight it'll influence the officials aswel as the teams.

    It's going to be a difficult challenge.

    Everton are 2nd bottom of the league for a reason. They've scored 30 goals fewer than us and have let in 21 more.
    We narrowly lost there last season but were the better team. We've got an extra goal machine in the squad this time.

    We also have Trippier, Botman, Longstaff and Wilson in our team.
    I doubt Gordon will be involved.

    Watching Haaland last night with his hair down, a cross between Miss Piggy and Dolf Lundrom.

    So do we want Man Utd or Spurs to win tonight?

    A draw would be nice but being ambitious we could hope for a Spurs win?

    Draw is the ideal result. End of the day, we now need to show we mean business on the last lap.

    Liverpools last 6 matches are very winnable, If we win 4 though then it doesn't matter.

    4 wins...

    Everton, Southampton, Arsenal, Leeds, Brighton, Leicester, Chelsea.

    Surely we can do it?

    I look at those fixtures and feel that on our current form we should win 5 of those and are capable of winning the 2 vs Brighton and Arsenal esp as they are at SJP

    I've just noticed, and it's hardly a boast - but Chelsea can't catch us.
