30 in and Sunderland have not impressed me yet. First time Iāve watched them this season. Everton on the other hand look quite good.
But you know how football works. They need to get a 2nd whilst dominating before it changesā¦so cmon Sunderland.
They are both dogshit. Sunderland will be lucky to stay up and Everton will finish bottom half.
This is the sort of game Everton win year in year out, against fucking dross. This was nailed on.
Thierno Barry isnāt very good is he?
Since my post 10 minutes ago bucketing Sunderland they have come back well. Could be a good 2nd half. Everton could regret a couple of good chances missed.
Lovely little deflection on that one from Xhaka.
You donāt mind to see it.
Grealish getting fouled more than Maradona at the 86 World Cup.

Level on points with LFC nowā¦18 points after 10 has them looking pretty safe, it would take a horrendous collapse for them to be in trouble, particularly with some genuinely woeful teams to pick up points from. Realistically, they are probably halfway home already, it has been about 10 years since a side with 36 points went down.
It has been a good while since Sunderland were higher on the table than Newcastle, next derby might be fierce.

Welcome to Sunderalnd was brilliant car crash tv but everyone involved in football should be forced to watch it again to see how even a historically clownish organization can turn things around in relatively short order as long you take your medicine and stop doing the dumb shit you were doing in the avoid of avoiding that short term pain

From the BBC
Only seven times has a team on 19 points, the tally of second-placed Manchester City, or 18 points, which is what Liverpool, Sunderland and Bournemouth are on, after 10 games won the title.
Nobody has ever done it from fewer points, which would ārule outā any other hopefuls.

I said it before and Iāll say it again: thereās not a derby game in English football I enjoyed watching more as a neutral than Newcastle vs. Sunderland - the one where DiCanioās Sunderland beat Newcastle 3:0 and subsequently managed to beat relegation was the definitive highlight. Just bonkers football and atmosphere.

Itās on thenā¦.
Seems like a silly use of the statistics (which naturally only cover the PL era), given that āonly seven timesā is also over 20% of the seasons in the population. Not exactly incredibly rare, particularly when one considers that we appear to be at the end of the era basically defined by ManC over the last 10 years or so where the winner really had to have 90+ points - a larger percentage of the population that the one the BBC piece cites. I donāt think Arsenal is going to hit 90 points this season, but they do have a very good chance of winning the title now.
