Liverpool at home isn't the worst fixture for us, especially if they are a bit adrift of CL places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can easily flip that argument and say if Bournemouth still needed something on the last day they give Everton more of a game. I'd say the lower the points total needed the better for us, an either team taking 3 points today probably raises the total needed.

I do take your point though, I think the last 10 mins yesterday would of been a lot more difficult if Wolves were 6 points worse off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koke Posted 23 April 2023 Share Posted 23 April 2023 Watched extended highlights of both Everton and Notts Forest games. Notts Forest are a very route one team. Lots of long throws into the box and lots of hit and hope football, and very little actual creativity. It's all about results now so I guess anything goes but it's very ugly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if we're within 3 of West Ham for this game then it's a team we can jump above with a win. No relying on results elsewhere. Could argue it either way and there's still so much football between now and then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does seem like they either boot it long for Johnson to chase or rely on Gibbs-White to drag them through games, but I can't say I've taken any time to properly watch them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to trouble Liverpool though, so it was relatively successful. As for Everton, i can't even see how they're a Burnley-esque Dyche team. It's like everyone associated with the club knows their doom is imminent. They're all resigned to it more than we were for our situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 23 April 2023 Share Posted 23 April 2023 I wasn't sure which side of the fence to stand on for Newcastle vs Tottenham, like picking between two horrendous venereal diseases.
