Good chance for Liverpool to boost the goal difference tonight.  Leicester have been poor defensively all season.

Southampton,Leicester City and Leeds United are looking like the three to get relegated.
It's too early I think If Everton and Forest were 6 points ahead of the drop zone it would be different but they aren't.
Who each team played in the last round of games was random. Same for the next 3 rounds.

Everton were hoping before tonight for two wins from their last 4 games. Last nights emphatic win is in bonus territory.

Away to Man City on Sunday was never going to be anything to count on, but then they've Wolves away and finish with Bournemouth at home on the last day.

Get something from Wolves and after last night that's a real possibility and then full tilt at Bournemouth who're on the beach already is doable.

Leicester have Liverpool, Newcastle and finish up with Westham, so might still be in with a shout on the last day.

Southampton have Fulham, Brighton and finally Liverpool, they need to pick up 3 wins and hope Everton don't get another point anywhere... They should be gone.

Leeds have Newcastle, Westham and finally Spurs, They've to pick up 3 more points than Everton do in the run in (Everton better goal difference) and 3 more than Forrest.

Southampton gone, Sunak is a jinx unless it's his own personal finances....

Leicester beat and Leeds drawing whilst Everton expectedly got a trimming from City still leaves it tight in the bottom.

All three away this weekend, Leicester have the short straw at Newcastle who've still got something to play for, Everton away to Wolves who're safe but with DCL doubtful it's a blow to them, Leeds away to the Hammers, who are also safe on goal difference so might pick something up there as well.

It's all down to the final weekend with 2 from 3 going down, even if Arsenal do beat Forest and bring them into the mix..

Leicester's body language yesterday indicated relegation. They have gone to 1/8 with the bookies

From BBC

Brentford striker Ivan Toney has been banned from football for eight months after he accepted breaking Football Association betting rules.
Toney has also been charged £50,000 and warned about his future conduct for 232 breaches of the FA's betting rules.
His suspension starts immediately, but the 27-year-old can return to training with Brentford four months before it ends on 17 September.
He will not be allowed to play again until 17 January, 2024.

The breaches Toney has been found guilty of took place between 25 February 2017 and 23 January 2021, during which time Toney represented Scunthorpe United, Wigan Athletic, Peterborough United and Brentford.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

With all the talk of City/Madrid the play-offs might have slipped some people by. Luton Vs Coventry in playoff final. Good to have a different team coming up, after all Coventry been through past 10 years be nice to see them back in the prem

Have a soft spot for Coventry going back to the 87 cup final.

Fun Fact*: Luton Town are the only founder member of the Premier League who have never played in the Premier League.

Likewise. Mick Quinn the former postman. Big Steve Ogrizivic and Dave Bust who'd one of the worst injuries you'd ever see.

In school we would all have a '2nd' team instead of just solely Liverpool or United (Arsenal fans were a rare breed then, but often not too likeable!!).  My second team was Wimbledon for years, and then a brief switch to Coventry.  Now and again it would come up in pub talk, and names would pop up that would make you go 'Jesus,  yeah'.  It all feels so long ago now- remember Oxford in the top flight?

Bellingham going to Sunderland. bet no one saw that coming.

It's weird seeing Brentford in the Premier League

Newcastle United now just need three points in their remaining two games for Champions league football next season and they are playing Leicester City next.  Just the start of the Newcastle United project another Manchester City in the making.

Well, they've got a good manager which is is a big help.

99th minutes equalizer for Everton today, A result that might have Leeds some hope.
