As bad as anything I've seen in the EPL this year including Uniteds 2nd half yesterday.

Lampard is a fraud.

I Watched the Forest game and have switched over to see Richarlason and a couple of others strolling round not breaking a sweat. I know theyre 5-0 down but they really arent bothered. We might be playing them next season,

Everton are shocking

Not had a new manager bounce under Lampard, he talks a good game so makes you wonder if he's actually that good or if there are more things that meet the eye

Terribly run club nowadays. Their issues are far bigger than Lampard but he's certainly not improved things. I said it when Ancelotti left, the entire set-up at the club is completely backwards.

*EDIT - Found the post I was referring to from back in June.

This.
It's why Everton have failed despite having had an excellent manager in Ancelotti & decent recruitment teams in place with the likes of Marcel Brands & previously Steve Walsh who they pinched from Leicester (discovered Mahrez & Kanté etc.)
They don't have a model of what they actually want to be & recruit around it like most successful clubs do now. This leads to the scenarios you see with ridiculous turnaround of players & management as they're often looking to play a certain brand of football with players that simply aren't suited to it.

Another good example would be Frank De Boer's ill fated tenure at Palace.

Would be a slight farce if they went down. Not quite as big as if Newcastle did which now appears unlikely

I think it would be massive if Everton went down, not been in the second tier since the mid 50s

Even Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Spurs have had spells in the second tier more recently. It's only Arsenal that haven't

Would be interesting to see if Moshiri continued bankrolling them or cut his losses like Ellis Short.

Ignoring Newcastle takeover, Everton being relegated would be a much much bigger thing. They are one of the top 3 longest serving top flight clubs and wealthy in their own right

I meant in terms of the competitive farce of them even being in the league.

The benefactor for the stadium is an Oligarch, so they've got a £400m gap

Leeds look in serious trouble now and it’s turning toxic in the stands.

I think it will be between Leeds and Everton for the last relegation place, Norwich and Watford nailed on for the drop now.

Leeds for me look a decent side but they're just not with it mentally. Going to be between them and Everton I think, Burnley will escape

Norwich and Watford have 9 wins between them.

There should be a certain points barrier which if you don't reach when going down you can't go back up the next season. Give someone else a go.

Had a handful of his shirt, got none of the ball. Still no penalty. Ridiculous.

This clear and obvious thing is such a cop out. If a foul takes place and the referee doesn't see it, then surely it's a clear and obvious error?

Newcastle actually look like a decent team. If they can attract some good players in the summer could see them easily finishing top half next year
