VillaChris Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Everton's run up to New years day. Away to Leicester Away to Liverpool Home to Chelsea Away to Man. United Home to Arsenal Home to Burnley Away to Newcastle Away to Man. City If we beat Newcastle we're above Everton and really we should stay above them up to middle of January looking at what they have. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but they will most likely sack Silva very soon and get that new manager bounce effect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could well do, but you are ignoring the other teams below us and we have a tough run of games ourselves. We are currently 3 points above last place. Monday is massive! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 There's a poll on an Everton forum posted after today's game asking if Silva should be sacked, of the 337 who've voted 308 of them have said yes. There seems to be a lot of talk of Moyes gong back there as well, which would surprise me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for players to find themselves against Newcastle, they need to beat them in style, most importantly we need something to go into the game after Newcastle and say we can do this again.

United, Chelsea or Leicester which feels unlikely based on current form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not as if we've been beating all the teams around us, and its not like other teams around us haven't been doing so either. Points are points in the end so its not as if their wins on the big clubs are meaningless. They are not meaningless games. I just don’t care how other teams have done against so called big teams. I care about villa staying up. Don’t care how they do it. The OP just felt like another negative stat to beat us with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man that's depressing stuff. We had that gap before Everton game. Then again before Norwich. It was actually worse by then. Look where were Newcastle, and where are they now. Realistically, if we win against Newcastle, we could afford to lose the next 3 or get 1 point, and still be in a reasonable position. The results weren't that bad. The only one who won were Norwich, who's the worst team down there. Everton losing could be very good. Them and West Ham could get dragged and actually be down there by new year. Same goes with Crystal Palace. If we beat Newcastle, we can't make them outside of the equation. In reality, Newcastle and Palace are still in the race. Even Bournemouth and Brighton could back down. Same goes with Sheffield (potentially). Winning against Newcastle will make Everton and West Ham in a direct race with the bottom 3. I don't think Norwich have more than the odd result. Soton and Watford could be a different story. The good thing we're 3 points above of them with a game on hand. The only teams you could see them out of the relegation battle apart from the regular top 6 are: Leicester, Wolves, somehow Burnley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Can see Chris Hughton at West Ham (not sure Everton would go for him). He seems the obvious short term fit to keep a club up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villalad21 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 The fans at Everton expected top 6 before the season started. I think that is delusional. Replacing Gueye and Zouma was always going to be next to impossible. Their squad really isn't that strong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 If we spent 500 million in 3-4 systems a lot of our fans would probably be expecting top 6 too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Having Gueye's replacement, Jean-Philippe Gbamin injured as soon as the season started has likely hurt Everton a lot. He's expected to be out until February and will need even more time to be up to speed. Massive loss for them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
