Everton relegated would be a massive shock.
No team has been in the top division longer.

Big Frank was a bad choice even if they avoid the drop.

Big Frank was a bad choice even if they avoid the drop.

He made a big call last night hauling Keane off who was having an absolute mare. His OG was avoidable and he and Holgate parted like the red sea time and time again and even for Kanes goal whether he was potentially fouled or not in the build up, he needs to get ignorant with Kane when Kane gets up to his sneaky stuff, Mina wouldn't have let that happen.

Godfrey and Mina can't get back soon enough if Everton are to have a sniff of avoiding relegation. Young Branthwaite was OK when he came on last night but he needs a decent defender beside him and there wasn't.

I honestly didn't get the decision at all. Underwhelming at Derby, Went straight to Chelsea and got sacked by a team who went on and won a CL in his absence. I also find him severely unlikeable.

New managers are supposed to get a bounce in the first 6 or games.  It was a big big call to appoint Lampard - high risk.  I honestly hope it doesn't prove to be the wrong one.  It would be a weird season without the derby (and a handy six points  )

[manfromdelmonte]

we're probably going down.
sold Digne (a full international player), and now a wrong sided player covering for him

maybe WW3 will come before relegation and we wont have to worry about it

[imtommygunn]

I think that too manfromdelmonte

I know Calvert Lewin has had his injuries but is he now lookin like a boy looking out a la pogba/rashford/lingard? Didnt see last nites match..

Id also put keane in same bracket as maguire just now, looks low on confidence and centre half is no hiding place

[laoislad]

Everton won't be relegated. It will be tight but the teams around them are just as bad and probably worse than them which will probably save them. They have a couple of games in hand also.

By all accounts he is on the way out.

Dunno LL - where do the points come from.

A shoot out between yourselves and Burnley I suspect, though Leeds are still potentially in the mix. I think 32/33 points will be the safety valve this year and you should be able to pick up 10-12 points in 13 fixtures.

[laoislad]

Leeds are definitely in the mix BC1. Gonna be very tight.
Actually just had a look at Everton's remaining fixtures 

[Sheedy]

The next 2 games are massive, Wolves and Newcastle both at home, minimum 4 points needed.

Leeds probably more at risk than Everton but they have the manager 'bounce' maybe and if they get Bamford back he is huge. I think Brentford will do enough. There's a few games between the teams round the bottom which will be the deciders

The next 2 games are massive, Wolves and Newcastle both at home, minimum 4 points needed.

If you do that you stay up. If you lose either of those, particularly the Newcastle game from a mentality point of view, then it's trouble.

If Mina and or Godfrey aren't back for those next two games then it'll be zero points as any decent passing in the middle third cuts Everton open at will..

The margins are going to be very fine. If 2 of the spots are more or less decided it should help
