This week will determine if Europe is a possibility for us.

Two games tonight with ramifications for Everton for me.

Leicester away to Burnley, who are missing, Barnes, Maddison and Justin.
Villa away to Sheffield Utd.

Leicester lose, and it makes the Top 4 a little more achieveable.
Villa lose, and it keeps teams around us down.

Thursday is significant for so many reasons, hopefully Fulham and draw will go nicely with an Everton win.

Im hoping for a full on Leicester implosion because then two spots may be available.

Realistically, as it stands I can't see us pushing for Top 4. But, if Leicester missing those three key players, and Vardy doesn't look right since his return, there's a big chance there. It will be huge if Burnley can pull off a result tonight.

There missing 5 players now
Maddison/Barnes/Evens/Prez and Justin
All big players for them

his can you see as it stands? 2 points off 4th with only Chelsea/Arsenal and City away and Spurs at home. Every game is teams below us except City/Chelsea

Mate there’s 3 up for grabs, Utd aren’t that good to think they don’t have an implosion in them.
It’s unbelievable how lucky they’ve been this season with penalties. Also I think they’ve scored 1 goal against the ‘big 6’ teams.
We win tomorrow and we’re 4 points behind them.

*Forgot they play tonight well anyway we still could be 4 points behind them come the weekend

I think Utd will make it just but I think Leicester could fall like a stone, big game for them tonight

All three games ending as home wins tonight would be excellent. Highly unlikely I admit, but I can dream can't I?

So we’re only going to win three more then (Chelsea, arsenal and Spurs)

I'm just concerned about our run in personally.

The squad is still a couple of injuries away from being really undone. I just think Chelsea are hitting pace at the right time, granted, they're not playing attractive football, they're grinding results out, just like ourselves.

If this time next week, we've just taken 6 points from 2 away games, then i'll start having a bit more belief, I just feel like Chelsea are going really well at the moment, and they need to go on a blip for us to stand a chance or Leicester need to completely capitulate, which may happen, for reasons as you said with injuries.

Leicester don't need to have a major crisis - just a couple of hiccups. We're six behind them with a game in hand. That's no mountain to climb assuming our guys get a rub of the green & stay strong.

Interesting to see how they do at Burnley tonight.

 

[paulbefc]

If we win tomorrow, my hopes will be up again, against my better judgement.

As much as I don't think we're good enough to get top 4, I can't count us out if we're in it after 26 games.

Chelsea havnt scored for 2 games in the league. There defending well but not doing a lot up front. Can’t count the RS out either. We have a chance

Not far off so far. We’ve got Lady Luck with us.
