I bet Andros Townsend is happy that he moved to a 'bigger club' last summer. I assume he's injured as he was'nt even in the squad yesterday.

Before saying that, have you looked at Everton's remaining fixtures?: Wolves H That's six games against teams playing for or already in the top 4. Newcastle is resurgent and Leicester seem to be coming round to form as are we. Of those ten games, only Brentford would you confidently expect them to pick up points. Based on remaining games, I expect Everton to go down. I can't see them getting more than 9 points from those ten games (and just to do that, assuming they beat Brentford they'd still have to beat two of Wolves, Newcastle, us, and Leicester which hardly seems likely). That would leave them on 31. The only thing that might save them is if Burnley, Leeds, and Watford end up with less. But Burnley have by far the easiest run-in. I reckon 32 or 33 points may well be enough to keep you up this year and it's probably between Leeds and Everton for the final relegation place. Goal difference may well decide it.

Agree with a lot of this but there’s been a problem with recruitment for a long time. Remember when they signed Gylfi Sigurdsson but played three number 10’s? Incidentally, what’s happened to him? He’s disappeared. Perhaps he’s misbehaved behind the scenes and away from football. They hired Steve Walsh as chief scout or DOF a few years ago. He followed Nigel Pearson everywhere from Newcastle. When Walsh got to Leicester he built the squad that Ranieri inherited to win the title on a very small budget. He also signed all the first crop of Chelsea players for mourinho. But at Everton he made a few bad signings and they sacked him just after not signing a few players he recommended who’ve gone onto become highly sought after expensive players. Get your recruitment and recruiter right and with a good manager you’ll reach your potential within reason of what’s sensibly achievable. You can look at plenty of clubs where it’s still the way to do it. Chucking money around without the right people doing it and you just fall behind those doing it right. All very obvious to some but still others chuck money around. Last time I heard he was being arrested..... Moshiri always Struck me as a person who really wants Everton to succeed. They've always been there or thereabouts of the top 6, and have been trying to 'push on' for what seems like an eternity., and certainly have more claim to being a 'big club' than most of us! I can't quite place what is wrong there. ready to splash the Cash, hire big name managers - who should do well, but always failing. I guess that they have fallen into the trap of signing 'big names' rather than those who fit their team.

We get 2 home PL games against them this season!

It's been stated on here that they have been top division mainstays bettered only by Arsenal. I do find them a tedious team, they've been of no real relevance for 30+ years now, the most exciting thing about them was when Moyes had them vying for fourth place. Just a very personal opinion but I do find them boring, perhaps an anachronism as somebody suggested. A bold statement indeed but I would like to see them drop, even if just to rekindle some spirit and passion at the club. One FA Cup win and constant members of the top flight, generally in the top half of it. I'd like Palace to have been that irrelevant since 1992.

You'd prefer that to having the pain of relegation followed by the unbridled joy of promotion either by right or, even better via the play-offs, i know which id prefer . . .

The Everton job, is somewhat of a poisoned chalice. Like Spurs, they constantly underachieve based on their squad regardless of the calibre of manager they bring in. TBH, it's their profligate spending more than the managers. Iwobi is just one of the more recent overspends and Tosun is still on their books. We really skinned them with Bolasie
