Everton have a habit of finishing the season strongly so I'd go for an away win tonight.

Very true TMT. ****.. I'd not thought of that.
An away win wouldn't be too bad I guess. At least it keeps the pack very tight, rather than anyone pulling away.
But only a 0-1 win though! ;)
 
No, Arsenal win all day. Everton don't show up away from home against the big boys, horrible record.

If Everton can get the luck Chelsea never seem to get they might stand a chance :D

We were talking more preference than prediction. I think Arsenal will win too but if they play like they did against Norwich then Everton will have every chance. Setpieces in particular will give Everton a lot of joy, Fabianski looks very dodgy on them and there defence seldom looks comfortable dealing with them either which is a big problem when Baines is whipping the ball in for Distin, Fellaini and Jagielka.

Well an Everton win then <ok>
 
Just thinking about this Arse v Everton Game tonight.
Surely a draw has gotta be the best result for us?

That'd put The Goons on 60pts, having played 33 games, and Everton on 56 having also played 33 games.

Therefore we'd be 2 points behind The Goons with a game in hand (against city unfortunately), but 2 clear of Everton, also with a game in hand.

It's unlikely, but an Everton away win tonight would be very worrying for everyone else involved in the top 4 race.
Every season we all know that they'll "put up a good challenge", but we sort of expect them to fizzle out and finish a respectable 6th or so. But this season could be a different story. They're hanging in there.

Still, i think I'd rather see Everton win than Arsenal. Seeing the Goons go 4 point ahead of us, despite our game in hand... would be a big cause for concern. City is not really a "game in hand". <laugh>


Your game in hand is against Chelsea isn't it, and I would be shocked if Everton got anything tonight as will others
 
I know what you implied, but I was implying that your implication is stupid.

You basically said he didn't see it then changed his mind when he did see it. What's wrong with that?

Going from defending Aguero to full on Daily Mail letters pages? One of them sounds like his honest opinion, one sounds like someone else's - someone who is more interested in complaining about the non-award of a penalty, for instance.

technically yes, it is. But for us, the GIH is going to feel like who ever we're playing next, if we're always a game behind!
 
For me, a draw would suit best. Leaves the Goons 2 points in front & Everton 2pts behind - both having played a game more than us.


Yes, a draw would be ideal, but only if we, then, are able to beat £ity, which is going to be a tough ask, what with both the injuries and free-loaders whom we are carrying, at the moment.
