Let's say Newcastle have spent their way to safety ... still Burnley, Watford, Brentford who have a very real chance of finishing below us and Everton and Leeds not far off. Everyone can't comprehend the idea of clubs like Everton going down..but I think it's possible. Especially when they become FrankLampardsEverton.

Fuzzar 1,702 Posted February 8, 2022 Everton definitely in the mix. Without Godfrey and now Mina injured, they were already looking leaky at the back. Gray off injured as well and Alli looks way off the pace - they're going to be in trouble. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least let the on pitch ref look at the monitor. Was watching live and it was a very clear straight red, Shelvey very lucky to stay on. Overall Newcastle look on fire, Saint Maximan and Tripier ripped a sorry looking Everton apart. Newcastle will fly now and finish in top half, Everton in big trouble Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fighting out a relegation battle against a super rich Newcastle team with Saint-Maximin, a Hodgson managed Watford, a battle hardened Burnley and an Everton team with players like Richarlison is a very difficult place to be in. I've got this annoying, nagging feeling that we're going to put up a really brave fight but still end up going down due to the strength of the opposition True but they are aren't ALL going to stay up are they? If so then who the hell is going down? Know what you mean though. As another poster said, Everton now have some serious injury problems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 3,777 Posted February 8, 2022 For the first time, I now believe Everton are in the relegation battle. They were awful against us and very poor again tonight. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bovril 219 Posted February 8, 2022 Very surprised by their line-up (and also pleased we avoided Lampard being here). Everton fans have been crying for Coleman to be replaced for two years now, Saint-Max destroyed Coleman + every other player in a blue shirt. They are in real trouble.

Branston Pickle 3,636 Posted February 8, 2022 (edited) I’d have preferred a draw but a Newcastle win was far better than an Everton one - it keeps them right in the mix and we can pull level with them tomorrow. We just need to do our job. Watford we’re a little unlucky, it was a big old deflection on the goal; Man U are a poor shadow of the side they were but should still have buried Burnley (who have still only had one win - astonishing!).

Capt. Pants 4,195 Posted February 8, 2022 Better a Newcastle win than Everton, but that's a huge point for Burnley. Watford are down no need to worry about them. Simply must not lose tomorrow now and tbh it's probably a must win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jambomo 215 Posted February 8, 2022 I can see Everton being easier to catch than Newcastle so that result isn’t a disaster. I still don’t see Burnley getting much, Man U are terrible at the moment - more disappointed we didn’t get a point against them as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrD66M 99 Posted February 8, 2022 On the latest showing from both teams, if we played ManU right now, I'd fancy our chances. What a shower of s**t. Newcastle we should have beaten squarely, and probably now won't get more than a point from them, barring injuries/illness, suspensions, etc. I know our position on the table is deceiving (more accurate is we're 2nd from bottom, above Watford by 1point) but, beat Palace tomorrow, and I bet we'll stay up!

sgncfc 1,221 Posted February 8, 2022 Way too early to see how new players settle in, but Everton look completely clueless at the moment. Whatever has happened to Gomez? He was awful against us and again tonight. Ali and van de Beek also hopeless. Townsend didn't fancy any of the 50/50s. Plus they have barely a fit defender. It might well be the year we see one of the PL stalwarts getting relegated. It's a shame we play City and Liverpool after Palace as I suspect, looking at the fixtures, we could be cut adrift again.
