They’re just run better. Let’s face it, the Premier league isn’t actually very good. So if you are run ok, and have half decent recruitment, you will be just fine. 10th-13th should be the absolute floor for a club with the resources and stature of Everton. Just puts into sharper focus just how badly run we are, and how much danger we are actually in of becoming another Sunderland or Sheffield Wednesday.
It’s tight. Really tight.
Yes. We have last season's experience of it.It’s tight. Really tight.
Do you think this group is capable of playing to the levels you are proposing consistently as the games run out and the pressure rises?
That’s a genuine question by the way,not an accusation or a dig at your postulations
I was disgusted by the lack of fire in that Fulham game give what was at stake (only 3 points, but one of our most likely 3 points against a team bang out of form). But then again, we finished the Spurs and Chelsea games begging for a couple more minutes injury time and most likely to nick it. Coleman, as much as don’t think is a vocal enough captain, possibly the difference, leading by example.
I do admire your optimism Dave, it is extremely refreshing. However, we also have the experience of Richy firing on all cylinders, which we don’t have this season. DCL also has legs made of cheese strings. Where are the results going to come from?
I’m just hoping the Gueye,Onana,Doucoure triumvirate plus Calvert Lewin can really step up to the plate now,also we really need our captain back in the side,mad to say it a 34 year old who has had his injuries and should be taking a back seat,but there you go!!!It’s tight. Really tight.

They very well might not be, and the EFL deals with that kind of thing much more harshly than the Premier league. That’s what could put us in real danger.
Possibly, yes. Said it the other week, some of them look like they are waiting for someone to fall in behind and follow a la Ritchy. Won’t be Gray that’s for sure.
We are not winning at Leicester ffs
