Arsenal are not a cert for top 4. Everton played Arsenal off the park at Emirate's last season.

I would say 3rd and 4th is between Arsenal / Spurs / City / Liverpool / Everton, Villa will drop off, they are quite poor, especially when Milner leave's.

The only team that will NOT be playing in Europe, is Everton. This could be a big boost for them.
We were lucky not to lose at the Emirates, true. But don't forget the opening game of the season at Merseyside ;)

True, but I think its safe to say, Everton were in a bit of a mess at that point, Lescott played FFS !!!

With Villa having no MON, thats 1 less team for us to worry about.

I can really see it bieng very close.

Quite a few people now tipping Everton to finish very high!

I rate your team, but i think you are overrating them. I wouldn't be surprised if you finished ahead of Tottenham as i think they will struggle a bit playing in two big competitions(CL, EPL) and might not do that well in the league as a result. But City, Arsenal, Liverpool and the obvious United and Chelsea will most definitely finish ahead of Everton.

Last season, Saha played very well, Pienaar was in the form of his life. I'm not sure those players can emulate their form of last season.

One thing is for sure, things do not look good for A.Villa.

Even though O'Neil was poor in the transfer market, he was really good at getting the best out of his players. I'm not sure they can find a manager that can do so well with the squad they have which imo is not really that good.

I agree mostly with you, Im saying its not IMPOSSIBLE for Everton to finish in the top 4.

Saha was good for half of last season, the 2nd half he was appauling. Pienaar was good, but you forget, we played 4 months without Arteta, Fellaini, Jagielka, Anichebe
and Neville.

If we keep these fit for most of the season, and the key players dont all get injured at once, we have as good a midfield as anyone.


Bilyaletdinov, Arteta / Rodwell, Fellaini, Pienaar
Cahill
