Aye, I think at the time we were about 10 GD ahead of United. They can only catch us on points; we need one more point to guarantee minimum sixth, however over this weekend they caught us up three points and six goals in GD swing. Basically if we lose next two and they win next three (they have a game in hand) they take Europe and we likely miss out as Spurs are gonna win their two games.
Ah right.
So basically, an Arsenal win more or less guarantee's them 4th, meaning we need a point from 2 games for guaranteed Europa league.
3 points will guarantee 5th because our goal difference is a lot better than Spurs.
If West Ham get a result against Spurs, we will go into the city game with pretty much guaranteed Europa, I will feel alot better about losing if they do!

Wow 100 people voted for a loss against City. Those guys hate Liverpool more than they love Everton right?.

Spurs are effectively 4 points behind us because of the huge difference in goal difference and west ham thrashed them the last two times they played.
They're not going to make that up on us. And honestly, even if they do, there's no difference between 5th and 6th. And Man U are definitely not going to catch us, they need to make up nine points with two weeks of the season left.
I know as fans that we like to pretend the last few games still matter for whatever reason so we can get up for them, but lets be real our season ended at southampton, these two remaining games are basically friendlies.

if they win every game and we loose both they might be ahead of us with goal difference too.
really torn about the game against city now. If arsenal win, which I think they will, fourth is pretty much guaranteed for them. I am sure roberto won't send our players out without anything but a win in mind, but mentally our players do not need to give it all.

They think the world revolves around them, and many of them genuinely believe Everton players would throw the game to stop them.
The players won't give a toss, and I don't give a toss. I want to watch Everton win.

There is a difference between 5th and 6th in that we'd have to play an extra qualifying round to get to the Europa group stage if we came 6th. I'd like to come 5th but really if you could have the option of having 6th and Liverpool losing the title, I'm not sure which I would choose...
Having said all that, if Newcastle somehow pull something Monday night then all guns blazing for the City game.

Maybe not deliberately, but if any of our players don't give 100% on Saturday then serious questions need to be asked.
Even against Saints, they were trying, they just weren't very good!
