Is WBA the biggest game of our season

[efc.1878]

I don't think its our biggest game of the season but tonight's result has raised its importance significantly.

This on toast

A must win now. One step at a time, so I won't think about the derby yet, but this next step is suddenly very significant.

 

[billytoffee]

the biggest no, but win it and it puts us in good stead for the Derby! The sh!te dropping points today is a real incentive for us to go and beat WBA Monday and put us firmly in 4th ahead of going to Anfield and after seeing Villa get a draw there, it will surely give us confidence that we can actually go there and win!

Agreed.

Just hope we don't mess it up-we have a habit of making hard work of this sort of match when there's a bit of added incentive.

What is, in your book? Every game in this league is equally important and carries the same weight.

An away night in Birmingham in cold, wet conditions, after being in Tenerife for a few days. Yea, it's harder than you thought.

That game is at a important point in the season, win and we go 4th, win the next game and we are 4th with a 4 point gap, WBA is now a massive game because it could see Everton go 4th and stay there till the end

Every game is important, indeed, but there will always be THOSE games which are quite obviously six pointers/deciders. They occur every single season.

If we keep going as we have been until the end of the season, our final three home games v Arsenal, United and City are what I would define as the biggest. Well, they will be colossal if we're still in the mix.

After the RS's draw today, if we win our next 2 we WILL finish at least 4th.

Spuds have to go to Chelsea after tomorrow's trip to Swansea, they will do very well to get more than 3 points from those two fixtures.

We better absolutely batter West Brom on Monday.

As i said earlier in this thread, it's so important to win all the 'winnable' games, and West Brom is exactly that, we're gonna need a lot to stay with the chasing pack which for me is Arsenal, Liverpool, Spurs, and 3 points were expected is so crucial, we've haven't had the fortuitous luck from other teams dropping points recently, it's felt like they literally all won every week, which is so frustrating.
Last season after 23 games, Spurs were fourth with 41 Points, this season after 21, we're fifth with 41.

For me, West Brom could be the most important game since Arsenal for us, and certainly, as it stands is more important than the Derby, simply because if Spurs drop points tomorrow against Swansea, we could potentially gain two points on some of our biggest rivals, and could see us go 4 points ahead of Spurs, and 2 points above the ****e. Considering recent weeks where the top 7 all won, except for when playing each other (and us Vs. Stoke), it could be so important.

The derby will be huge, and 3 points there would be amazing, we'd be 5 points ahead should we win both, Spurs play City, we could go 7 ahead of them. So the next 3 fixtures are huge. But as it stands, West Brom is a huge fixture.

Massive game this Blues.

FORZA EVERTON.

Good effort.. er at least it would be if you had checked the table an saw that Liverpool are currently 2 points ahead, so if we win WBA then we'd only be 1 point above them (with inferior GD).

That's why I say that the next TWO matches will be season-defining. Win those an we have every chance to fulfill what we've been promising, and it would give us the momentum to absolutely smash the February fixtures.

 

[evilwebby]

TBH they are all absolutely massive games, but some are more massive than others.

 

[nsno-chris]

Every game from now till the last game should be classed as a 'big game'. I want the title ffs

C'MON EVERTON, THESE ARE ****

 

[meagher94]

It seems before every game people are saying "biggest game yet this", "biggest game of our season so far this".

When you're chasing that 4th spot, every game is bigger than the last.

Yeahh, sorry was looking at the table pre-Villa, either way, it's still 4 points ahead, with breathing room (not much), before a tricky February!
