Other than a few minor facts like league position, cup performances and recent head to head record, yes we are miles better.
 

First off, I know they are not the barometer against which we should measure ourselves. However they are our neighbours and subconsciously we all look sideways to see where we are at compared to the not so lovable, badly behaved, flag waving red mutants.

I think we are better than them.

I'd never have made that statement before January but the additions of Lookman and Schneiderlin plus the emergence of Davies has really made a huge difference. Not only to the quality of the players individually on the field but to our ability to play the way RK wants to.

Joel is better than either of their keepers.

Our full backs are superior, right back is debatable but no question about Baines vs Milner.

Midfield is where the difference has been made. Whereas they boast a plethora of fancy Dan number 10's who turn up one game in three, it is unbalanced and offers little protection to their comical defence and goalie.

The fact that they hold Adam Lallana as some sort of demi-God speaks volumes for where they are at. Henderson will always be average at best, looks good when the aforementioned number 10's are having their monthly stormers but ultimately is about as inspiring as a bowl of bran flakes at a hotel breakfast buffet.

Our midfield options are fluid and healthy. Barkley can be whatever he wants. He's been crap this season apparently yet has about 54 assists. Gueye and Schneiderlin are a duo that can anchor our side for the next 5 seasons. Davies is mustard.

We have Romelu Lukaku, don't think I need to expand on that.

As is stands now I think we have the edge and it's only going to get better. The ambition of Everton for once is very evident and it is clear we are going places under the ownership of Moshiri.

As a 33 year old who has seen a few false dawns come and go it is refreshing to feel the tide turning 'for real'. Long may it continue hey!
Oh My God

admire your optimism pal but everton ya know
 
I don't even acknowledge them as an entity generally. Win/lose/draw I simply don't care.

Twice a year I care on Derby day. Rest of the time they are irrelevant.
 
As much as I appreciate the mods here not acting like the draconian barstewards on RAWK, every once in a while there's a thread on here that deserves such a treatment. This is one of them.
 
We are still looking as capable of an unexpected loss/draw in any given game, or even a poor run, as we are of turning in a boss performance. I don't see any major corners turned yet when it comes to Everton being Everton. Long way off yet.

Happy currently about Lookman and Davies but both are very young and green and could easily dip in form and be bench material come season end. And it'd be no disgrace given the size of the step up made. Love Rom and Ross but both still capable of playing poorly tomorrow and in plenty games before end of season.

This is a horrific thread saved ONLY by some fantastic monkey business and classic GOT.

Never mind comparing us to those above, get your head straight and see we are still Everton. Sometimes great, sometimes good, sometimes average, sometimes crap. Hopefully gonna change soon, but right now? Nah. Not the time for tooting our horn.
