Chelsea are so inconsistent these days in matches like this. Much like Arsenal and spurs. Could see Everton winning tmrw. 

 

Would be surprised if Burnley get 4 points. Still think Everton will pick up at least 6. Leeds ?

 

Everton remaining fixtures:
Chelsea (h)
Leicester (a)
Watford (a)
Brentford (h)
Palace (h)
Arsenal (a)

 

Burnley:
Villa (h)
Spurs (a)
Villa (a)
Newcastle (h)

 

Leeds:
Arsenal (a)
Chelsea (h)
Brighton (h)
Brentford (a)

 

You'd fancy Leeds to pick up at least 4 from their last 2 games. They got taken apart (scoreline wise at least) today by one of the best teams in Europe but their recent form has been OK since the manager change and B&B are no Man City

[Paullow]

I guess Benitez winning 4 of the first 6 didn't help him because it's easy to forget that, and you're just mainly reminded by his most recent results which was W1 D2 L9, so 5 points from his last 12 matches, or 6 from 13, whichever sounds worse. He left with an overall W5 D4 L10, which is a PPG and certainly better than what they have achieved since, but it would have probably been better from Rafa's POV had those early 4 wins been spread out a lot more during his 19 matches there.

I mean, if Rafa was still there there’s not a chance that they’d be getting relegated like.

Would love it if we’re nowt’s each against Burnley on the final day. Have Fabby Schär put the ball on the goal line, sit on it and edge forwards so it comically goes backwards into the net.

If we are putting it in our own net to send Everton or Leeds down it can only be Wood doing it.

I've got Leeds getting another 5points and Burnley another 6. Predicated on a draw with us. With Everton having Brentford and Palace at home and Watford away, could be as tight as gnats chuff.

Could be a delicate balancing act that last game, losing and sending Everton down one minute, then a goal for them could mean were losing and sending Leeds down, would just as soon win the game if that's the case.

If Everton are to survive, Leeds going down would be a consolation. Would try and snap up Phillips and Raphina straight away. Some quality assets to strip there!

Raphinha has a clause too where he can go for 25m if relegated I think

He's solid as hell. Would love to see him signed at some point.

Gonna be very tight this one , don’t like any of the 3 so win , win , win

oh I do hope they get pumped now 

[ExiledGeordie]

I hope Everton go but I have a feeling Leeds might go now. If Chelsea put Everton away today that’ll do nicely though

[Mazzy]

Would be nice to have Everton not only lose today but also lose by 3 or more goals to make the GD even worse. To have them go down but by GD would be even sweeter.

[Ronson333]

Can see their fans turning toxic if they’re losing badly.

Going into the last game week I expect all three to be neck and neck points wise, Burnley will need to get something from us last game.

[GeordieDazzler]

Everton play the best in games that they are expected to lose so could see them scrapping a point today.

 

The Watford game is almost too big for them, it feels like it did for us, where there is almost too much pressure riding on it and for that reason can see them screwing it up. 
 

Leeds have Brighton and Brentford who are safe and can’t really challenge the Euro spots so if they are on the beach Leeds could pull away like we did late season with Bruce.

Hopefully Chelsea celebrate each of their goals by shoving a sparkler up an Everton’s fan’s arse

Fucks me off we gave Everton 3 points

[La Parka]

page 13 is quite funny in retrospect. Everyone is rightly writing off Burnley. Well nearly everyone.

Aye, even if we’d just seen out a poor 0-0 they’d be gone.

[Stifler]

Aye, imagine if they were 7 points adrift now. 1 win for Burnley and Leeds each, and you would imagine it would be job done.

Man United gifted them 3 points as well. They were shocking.

It’s lovely looking down isn’t it. This end of season (and the 3rd division playoffs) are going to be exciting for all the right reasons for a change.
