Relegation 2022/23

[Toffeelover]

We can only hope that it is a move in the right direction.

Hoping Esk gets it right

Sure if its the "Americans" @ForeverBlue92 wont be celebrating.

Hah, it is not going to solve our FFP and Relegation concerns.

We need to win, Leeds to lose and Leicester to lose or draw. In that event we are safe. Horrible that we go first on the weekend, but might play into our hands as we put the pressure on both if we win.

We MUST win though.

No way would Moyes, or any manager, field a heavily weakened team against a team around the relegation area

This is his team for Brentford at the weekend and I think it’s weaker than the team he’ll play against Leeds, but it’s still a line up with quality and plenty of PL experience, and one capable of beating Leeds at home, and they’ll be highly motivated to prove a point and do so.

We must win one of the last two.

If we end up on 35 points I'd be surprised if Leeds or Forest can get 36 points...and that's what they'll need to get past us.

I can't name 5 football players under 27 outside Everton these days, but Brentford have no risk so he can do what he wants

This is true, small steps and all that.

Also, there's a difference in mentality picking a team before a crucial game an in the wake of one.

Last home game of the season on Sunday for West Ham. IMO they'll want to go out on a win an Moyes will pick as strong a team as he can put out.

If that's the expected win game that people believe then I dont see them having their own way under those circumstances.

The thing is, Moyes had a reason to be play a “weakened” squad on Sunday, they’ve got a big Semi Final. Against Leeds they don’t.

I don’t think they’ll be rotating near as much, I completely agree. If they progress they’ll be all fighting to keep match fit and I think that’s why I’ll wait til Thursday before I begin to flap it.

I dont think Moyes will want us to go down. he will pick a decent team and get them fired up

Remember we were linked to Cornet. 0 goals in 20 games. Shabite.

…I don’t believe Everton will be in his thoughts, he will only do what’s best for his team.

 

[bullybeef]

We have to win against Bournemouth.

I also think we need a point away at wolves… a win would be even better!

Hes had a horrible time with injuries hes played 213 mins of PL football this season, 58 of them were at the weekend - given that injury record this season - we dodged a bullet on that score.

Never not ever...

Haha trust me, 'Ever' is the right term in that Sentence regarding my Punctuation...

Leeds would likely be ahead on GD in that scenario tbh. Could be we have to hammer Bournemouth.
