Relegation 2022/23

Another interesting stat, is the away for of Forest, its terrible, they have won one, just like us, West Ham and Leeds, but they have only scored 4 and allowed 32, thats terrible, they have games at Anfield, Chelsea, Villa and a couple more hard ones, i can easy see them getting zero away points if that form carried on.
Away we have had quite a lot of draws and havent allowed that many goals really, well 22 but on the scale thats now bad when you look at Liverpool 20 Spurs 21 Leicester 29 Forest 32 for example

Is Seamus Coleman going to win Everton player of the season?

Tarkowski followed by Coleman for me right now.

I'd have to agree with this. Tarkowski has been hugely important for us. Seeing Coleman being close to getting it is quite the positive for his professionalism and dedication to the club, which can never be questioned, it is also a note on how poor our recruitment has been over the last decade. He is fantastic, but imo, at the age that he is reaching he should have 2 in front of him now, with them both learning from his experience. By the time we get a regular who is capable enough,, Coleman would have retired and wont be there to pass stuff on.

They've conceded 9 more goals than us and only scored 1 more. They've rode their luck a lot but it looks like their weaknesses are catching up with them. They've won 2 out of the last 15 points and conceded 12 goals. Injuries are piling up - apparently 10 out - and the rumours on Brennan Johnson are that he's out for 6 weeks.

They have to play United, Liverpool, Brighton, Chelsea and Arsenal.

Completely agree. He is still head and shoulders our most capable player at RB. The position has needed filling for 2/3 seasons now. There'll have to be a starting replacement for Coleman brought in this summer.

Similar to West Ham they have big home games up next. Failure to take advantage of them will leave them in big trouble

Is Seamus Coleman going to win Everton player of the season?

The story of this season is still to be written but if he continues as he is going he’s a real candidate. His goal at Leeds was obviously massive but stuff like his defensive header over the bar on Saturday are worth points too- so often that’s either an OG or a tap in at the back post. Plus, he probably deserves it on facial expressions alone.

This is the start of the period where all the relegation candidates start playing each other. It'll be a bumpy ride for everyone - including us. I can see us dropping a few places before we face Chelsea next Monday. Inevitably so given the fixtures.

If we get anything at Chelsea it'll be massive as it will probably get us out of the relegation zone, which is psychologically important.

I sense an opportunity here v Utd.
Brutal week for them.

but this everton, you know the drill by now surely... if it's too easy, if there is an opportunity for us to get something... or on the other hand if a team needs a win, a clean sheet, a goal... etc... Everton will come along... i'd love us to beat them at their place...

By Sunday night I'd expect the table to look something like this (Wednesday, Friday and weekend results combined):

Wolves 30 pts
Palace 27 pts
Forest 26 pts
Leicester 25 pts
Everton 25 pts
Bournemouth 24 pts
Southampton 24 pts
Leeds 23 points

Sorry, I thought we were playing on Monday.
