Relegation 23/24 Thread

[Ragnar]

The whole if we had a striker we beat Fulham and Wolves is a pointless argument. We lost 6 points…. End of discussion

 

[LinekersLegs]

The board really seem to be doing their very best to achieve it on the third try

 

[luuk_deventer]

Wolves was saved by unbelievable goalkeeping, good fortune. If I had to pick a team to survive I would pick us all day long with the injured players to come back.

Are we forgetting Pickfords unbelievable save?

 

[Bebeto]

We haven't even scored a goal yet.

We should have a squad capable of dealing with a few injuries with the money that was spent.

I'm judging that we're bottom of the league after 3 games (yes, even below Luton), haven't been able to score a goal and haven't even played any actual hard games yet.

We're in deep trouble, there's no question about it.

The squad is not ready...thats the reality and has been like that since last year...we are giving away essentially the first few games of the season.

 

[Axlswhk]

Inevitable isn’t it. I cannot see us winning any game at this point.

 

[Bebeto]

If we are losing to Fulham and Wolves at home, I have no idea how you can predict anything will be "comfortable".

Because I have seen the performance and we were unlucky.

 

[DuuuncanHadaPigeon]

There will be no coach welcomes, no flares, no outstanding support this season. Just pure apathy and anger in equal measures. The only way we stay up is if there are three derby level teams. I'm sick of it.

 

[Kev The Rat]

The Sheff Utd game takes on enormous proportions now.

 

[Gilbert..]

Down by Easter unless we address midfield creativity and full back play as well as CF. Branthwaite is better than Keane and Chermiti looks like he has some potential if I am going to try to offer a glimmer of hope.

Thats nearly a whole new team

If we're performing well and not getting points, that's more concerning if anything. The games only get tougher from here and there will be "off days" performance wise too.

 

[T LEAFE]

Let's just enjoy the Premiership league experience whilst we can.
We may never see it again

 

[Bebeto]

We will get also those games when we grab a lucky winner...thats the nature of the premier league.

 

[GLS]

The squad is not ready...thats the reality and has been like that since last year...we are giving away essentially the first few games of the season.

The squad will continue to be not ready because we've invested poorly.

We can't afford to 'give away' the first few games of the season because we've survived by the skin of our teeth for the past 2 and have a weaker squad. These games are important because you don't want to go into games against City, Arsenal etc needing to pick up points.

You don't go into a season intentionally unprepared. Injuries are a reality that every team faces, most teams can compensate, we can't.

 

[LucBesson]

We will get also those games when we grab a lucky winner...thats the nature of the premier league.

It's the same problem as last season though. We need to keep a clean sheet to win a game. We will get a few 1-0s but enough? I wish I had the same confidence you do.

 

[Davideeyore]

When we win (!) games that we are not expected to win and fluke a win, then I will start to relax. But Everton don't win full stop we lose.

It's a big thing you know, winning a game, as opposed to losing a game. We're in big trouble. This team doesn't know how to 'win a game'.
