What position gets Europe?

Difficult to get into Europe on that form 🤦🏻‍♂️
 
I think Europe is done for us now. If we're not gonna be playing in Europe next season we need to take advantage of having those fewer games.

Many of the teams around us who are in the mix have been aggressively building their squads for several years now (Fulham for example). In a shorter time we've improved quite a lot.

The gaps in the side of obvious. Work to be done in summer.
 
Genuinely can’t believe we’’re probably going to miss it. It’s like a slow motion car crash, the Grealish injury, the Branthwaite injury, the Beto concussion v Liverpool, if none of these things happen we probably make it but as usual Everton have found the one path to complete failure that was ok to them and taken it.
 
I said the last few weeks knowing Everton whatever the final place for Europe was, that we would end the place below. Think we are trying to do that in even worst style and end lower. I did say 12th with chance of sneaking into top 10 before season. But we have messed up one hell of brilliant chance of any euro comp
 
Branthwaite's injury effectively cost Europe. The headers by Dyke and Soucek don't happen with the 6 ft 5 inches centre back plus imo the 2nd goal City scored doesn't happen in place of Keane - Branthwaite easily mops up and the state of both goals conceded today - Branthwaite in place of Keane = 3 points. It's as simple as that. People can blame Moyes, subs etc but with Branthwaite the defence is infinitely better and conceding 8 goals in 3 and a bit games since his injury has been a backbreaker.

Months of McNeil was a choice not an obligation.
 
Never going to be good enough for Europe, overall with the squad we have we are about right in the league table.

Anyone thinking differently is exhibiting kopite entitlement behaviour
This is an actual ass take. We SHOULD have been, comfortably, in the European places if not for this shatting of the bed that Moyes does every single time any expectation is placed on him.
