4 points off 4th

[Pomp]

Chelsea won't beat West Ham

 

[Brennan]

We weren't going to win today either, according to the doomsayers.

Spurs away

Arsenal away

Liverpool away

Chelski away

The above says we are doomed anyway.

This is really good news. If we can win our home games and get points from these games and Sunderland away and we will end up in a strong place.

Shame about the suspensions. One game at a time. Stoke will be difficult without Pienaar and Felli.

Spurs away

Arsenal away

Liverpool away

Chelski away

The above says we are doomed anyway.

The fact that we ARE playing those sides is the one thing than gives us a chance.


What if, by some miracle, efc put together the best run of results EVER under Moyes and we won two and drew two of those away games.

we´d be in with a chance.

By the way, very disappointed in Swansea today v Arsenal. Let Arsenal boss the game for 90 min and created zilch, in spite of having brilliant Michel Laudrup in their pen.

Another thing is the pressure is off now. No one expects us to do well in those matches, which is the only time (as has been discussed here previously many a time) that Everton under Moyes does well.

If we were occupying fourth right now and had those games coming up I´d say not a chance. We´d choke massively. Now though, with our season taking a standing eight count, who knows. Especially if Jelavic can score a couple more before the end of the season.

Everton and Real Madrid are the only teams this season to beat both Manchester teams.......can we still mathematically win the league?!?!?!?! FFS COYBBBB!

 

[LocalNative]

Us Evertonians love getting our hopes built up only for them to be smashed.

Therefore I shall remain optimistic. To be quite honest though, i'd bite your hand off if you offered 5th place right now.

I have a funny feeling that finale at Chelsea is going to have huge implications...for us.

Chelsea have Spurs (h) Liverpool (a) United (a) everton (h) plus united in the cup and 2 Europa league QF legs against Ruban Kazan ... Not easy.

Spurs have Everton (h) Chelsea (a) City (h) and two Europa League QF legs against Basel ... Less than straight forward and those games are on the bounce.

Arsenal have Everton (h) united (a) .... Easiest of the lot.

Liverpool have Everton (h) and chelsea (h) .... Quite easy too

Plenty of football left yet. Sixth for me.

Stoke will be difficult without Pienaar and Felli.

Spurs away will be harder

 

[johnnydawg68]

Beat them and Arsenal. Draw spurs and chelski. Win all home games. Won't be easy but there you go.

 

[Petit]

Spurs away will be harder

Are both suspended for Spurs away?? How can that be?

Or some combo thereof.

Second red card for Pienaar, 10 yellows for Fellaini.

EDIT: Actually, might be wrong.
