Why do everton continue to lose away to certain teams

Despite not winning anything in so long we still have name value and the top teams will always be more wary of us than a Burnley or Bournemouth.

Apologies I grew up with him being our manager and wasn't aware it was that bad before.

@Lanolin

Nah I take that back, how he's lined up tonight is a great example of him.

It's mostly because we have been very average for decade's

Since the PL started at least maybe even earlier we've gone to the top teams and tried not to lose, that's how we've always set up playing for a draw. Yesterday was the first time in a long time that I feel we had a good go at a big team, and a combination of their Keeper playing well and DCL missing chances kept us from winning. Arsenal were not the better team yesterday.

Arsenal have their worst team that they have had for a long time and played midweek in Europe so by all means were there for the taking and Everton as usual failed to do so

We might as well just refresh this thread in a couple of weeks when we don’t beat Chelsea.

What top 4 and what years? Ta.

From memory the late to mid 2000s, and the top 4 would be the same 4 teams which finished in the 4 positions each of those same years

Fulham -Leeds - and many other away grounds have been just as bad for us record wise ,,,, eg the first league win at Elland road was when they got relegated , and a certain Wayne Rooney helped us to win - your team has to be very good to consistently win, and some grounds are known as bogey grounds.....even when we were champions that particular season.....
