I don't agree with that. When we've been competitive in the past, bombing out of competitions has swiftly been followed by a drop off in the league.

Big game today, if we can get the result it will be looking very positive indeed, ok we know the league isn't won before Christmas but a points advantage certainly helps, especially with a couple very big games against the top teams coming up.
There's a long way to go but this month is very important.
if we win today, we potentially have the chance to be 10 points clear of both city and chelsea on christmas day. now that would be one hell of a statement to make
That's because they all happen around the same time. Usually FA cup Quarters/Semis are around the time of CL quarters and it all happens back to back, as we lose points in the league, and everything just ends.Originally Posted by MOëL
I get your point though and we are certainly a momentum club. This year does seem to have been a bit different. We bounced back from our defeat to Villa, Dortmund and Man Utd immediately. Times have changed. Ideally we would compete on all fronts, but that will only be possible if we sign a top striker in January, which I doubt.
On the face of it the result against Man U was a shocker, they've been losing and drawing most of their games.
if only half our squad wasn't ill. we would have hammered them
Today's result has put a few doubts in my mind, we'll see where we are after Chelsea and Man City.
everton are the best side we have faced all season. draw is a fair result. 5 points clear going into the city game. id have that any day
Better than Dortmund?
yes, in the sense that i thought everton performed better against us then dortmund did.Better than Dortmund?
