YGBjammy Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Just looked at the table and seen Leeds have conceded the most goals in the division; more than Norwich! Really could see any of Leeds, Everton, or Burnley coming down though, will be an exciting run in (unless you support any of those three!)

1960maaan Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 Though I have a soft spot for Everton, I was looking forward to a potential trip there next year. Not so sure now, had them to pick up about 4 points until the end of the season, done better than that already. You'd normally say the teams are down there because they can't win games, but Burnley and Everton have turned that around recently. I think I agree @ExiledAjax Leeds look lost ATM, they seem favourites to me. What I didn't realise is that there are still so many games to play, season ends on the 22nd of May. From where they are, I don't see many away wins, so Everton have 2 home games (3 away) , Brentford & Palace. Burnley play Villa & Newcastle home Leeds play Chelsea & Brighton home think it will be down to Burnley & Leeds on the last day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm the worst judge in the World, but from the last few games I've seen. Everton look like they are right up for the fight, may be different against lesser teams who knows. Burnley also look to have an edge and a goal threat now. Leeds look totally lost, a disorganised mess. Gives us some interest until the end of the month though. Along with the Playoffs I guess.

Robbored Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Everton did a Leeds by getting players sent off. Two straight reds at Goodison so they’ll both be done for the season.

Sturny Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 (edited) Unpopular opinion but I reckon Pickford should still play for England. People enjoying shiiiting on him, and sometimes watching him in an Everton shirt it can sometimes be valid. But in an England shirt he's a different player. We couldn't of asked for more in the Euros from him really. I also quite enjoy seeing him shout at Maguire.

The Batman Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 Just a quick one from those who were around at the time. Not sure if it's been covered in this thread or I've asked it before on others. Just how good were the mid 80's Everton team? I know in the footballing world, they say they would have won the European Cup had it not been for the ban on English teams, but is that people looking back with huge nostalgia or were they really that top a side in comparison to what else was out there at the time?
