Top Four Real For Everton
Bookmark and Share

We all know we are playing well and we are deservedly second in the Premiership. But have we got a real chance of making a Champions League spot?

Well our goalie thinks so

Tim Howard said: "The Champions League is a real, viable option for us. Very difficult, but it is viable. We talk about it, we achieved it a few years ago and we have the ability on form to do it. But it is a long way off to May.

"This is my seventh season. I think it is the best squad we have had, in terms of quality from top to bottom.

"You would have to ask the manager his opinion on that but I get the feeling from being around the guys in training and in matches that it is the most talented squad we have had.

"Does that give us the best chance? Maybe, because our grit and determination is always there and that is an Everton trait. Maybe this could be our year."

Too early for that chat Tim. I love optimism, but not when it's premature. Keep your mind on the game. Pulled out some top draw saves for us so far, a fair few against Swansea stick out. But your flapping efforts which lead to us conceding against S'ton and Newcastle need to be addressed.

Talking like the redshite? We're talking about Everton like Everton deserves to be talked about! Talk is just talk, we all know that! Take one look at redshite and see that. No need to be afraid of talk folks!

Calm down Tim. I just wanted to say - not connected to this item - that I was cyncial (sceptical maybe) about how much (Jack Rodders) dosh BK would allow DM to spend. I just wanted to hold me hands up and say I was wrong. Squad's great. Tonk those pie-eaters..!

Richy Styles, #4, LOL I didn't know whether to laugh, cry or scream at him to get a grip when he was getting his flap on jumping up and down like that. Butterfly? I think he just wanted to fly away as the Mighty S'hampton was making us look vulnerable at the back! Howard needs more support as the rest of the lads think they can go charging forward like Baines, only they can't trek back as fast as Baines! Heitinger lacks pace while Jags on the occasion likes to get in to the mix of it up front as that seems to be the norm these days with most fullbacks! At times he leaves himself a little short when the other team 's on the counter but more times than not (Thank God!) he's there blocking whatever ball just before it hits the back of the net! Buzz (despite his age) can catch up to any threat trekking back, but only for so long. He doesn't physically get slower like you'd expect, he just lacks more focus as the game wears on! At the moment Howard's got good reason to feel a little shaky at the back! But as soon as we get more backbone into our midfield(Queue Gibson) the more secure Howard will feel! Shit, the more secure we'll all feel!

Too right its too early, and would Evertonians stop predicting a win in the derby, we are sounding like Liverpool, talk about tempting bloody fate!

This from someone who is currently flapping like a butterfly when the ball gets crossed in.... Do your talking on the pitch... talk about the kiss of death... Moyes says he will comment after 10 games.. Let him do the talking off it!

Far too early for such predictions. We're starting to sound like the red shite.
