When can we start to panic?

[mrb85]

"Wait until we have all our players back" was the most used excuse for our pathetic performances and results up to a month ago. Well, we have them all back bar two now (McCarthy and Stones - maybe 3 if you include Naisy as a starter), and we're no better. If anything we're slower, less imaginative and less combative. Our manager shows little idea of how to improve things. Dropping points away to the PL champions is one thing; dropping them at home to the likes of Hull City is quite another.

So, when can we start to panic about dropping into a relegation dogfight? And if a fight is what we get into, who are the players you'd want in the trenches with you?

When we are in the bottom 3 with no games left on the last day of the season.

Seriously mate there's 3 worse teams than us.

No offense mate this is the attitude a sunderland or west Brom should have.

We are everton ffs, I knew our standards and expectations have dropped but surely not to this?

Not to overreaction? Mate were all peed of and we all want Everton to perform. It's a blip we will come
Good I have faith we will. And if we don't there is still 3 worse teams in the league.

Europe, Champions League, Europa Cup, FA Cup are all available to us. What the hell is wrong with some of you?

Its actually causing me physical pain reading some of the odd posts on here.

We're out of form.

Granted.

Some of the drivel getting posted is ridiculous. We can also strengthen in January

Midtable in early December and a relegation dogfight is being envisaged.

This is the kind of thinking that gets teams relegated.

@mrb85

If we end up in anything resembling a 'relegation dogfight' then I will donate £20 to a charity of your choice. Feel free to vault me.

We are out of form, we are not QPR.

I'll double that too.

We'll be in for a winger in January.

Vault me.
