Should another three points follow this weekend, it will be the first time the Blues have won nine in a row at Goodison since 1986 and equal the Club's best home run since 1969, when 12 straight wins were recorded.

Se on huomenna edessä yksi seuran lähihistorian tärkeimmistä matseista.
COYB.
Aika hyvä peli Evertonilta, ansaittu voitto. On se hienoa kun taas kauden jälkeen pääsee kiroilemaan, miten omissa käsissä ollut UCL-paikka saatiin sössittyä.

Sanoisin että 13 pistettä noista ja pisteellä rannalle CL-paikasta. Tosin skenario pyörähtää mukavammaksi heti jos/kun Arsenal häviää yhdenkin noista jäljellä olevistaan.
He said: "Phil is very much fully fit from a medical point of view. He's not too far away and he's been working really well this week. But, at the moment, we have the same squad as we had at Sunderland.
He said: "Steven is going to take a little bit of time to get back but I expect him to be back very soon, certainly before the season ends.
"Darron is great. I think his knee is stronger than before the injury, which is always a good sign. It's more about the chain of muscles around the knee and making sure he can cope with football movements. We expect him to join the group next week which is a phenomenal achievement.

Tim Howard's outstanding service for Everton has been rewarded with a contract extension which will see the US shot-stopper remain a Blue until 2018.
Howard has been provided with the deserved boost of a two year extension to his existing deal - ensuring he will remain at Goodison at least until the age of 39. Already ranked 22nd in the Club's all-time appearance list, another four seasons at Goodison will ensure he joins the ranks of the Club's most loyal servants. Howard is likely to have the opportunity to reach the prestigious 500 appearance mark - a feat only achieved by three players in Everton's long history.

Nythän ollaan keskiviikon jälkeen siinä tilanteessa, että loput on voitettava. Eikä sittenkään välttämättä riitä. Mikä kyllä olisi uskomatonta, 78 pistettä ja ei CL:ää.
Roberto Martinez today revealed that the Belgian has a small tear in his groin and will be sidelined for matches against Southampton this weekend, the visit of Manchester City on 3 May and the last game of the season at Hull City.
Mirallas Out For Final Three Games - The Official Website of Everton Football Club
“It’s a little bit too early to know how long he is going to be out. It’s a soft tissue injury with his hamstring and I do feel that in the next 48 hours we will have a clearer idea of whether he is going to be available before the season ends.
Martinez added: I don't think we'll see Lacina again this season. It would be a surprise if he's fully fit before the Hull City game.
Defenders Luke Garbutt and Tyias Browning have both been regulars on the substitutes' bench in recent weeks and Martinez hinted that the latest injuries to Mirallas and Distin could present the opportunity for more players to step up into the first-team squad.

“Steven Pienaar has trained really well all week,” Martinez said at his Friday press conference. “We still have two days of work and if he doesn’t get any setbacks I expect him to be in the squad.
“Lacina Traore is very much similar but we have to be a little bit cautious because he hasn’t been working with the group as long.”
“Darron Gibson has been working with the group and been doing really well but it is a bit too early to put him into competitive action yet.”

Joo, Tottenham taisi viime kaudella tehdä ennätyksen tässä mielessä. Eli kasasivat suurimman pistepotin, jolla on nykymuotoisessa sarjassa jääty viidenneksi. Pinnamäärä oli 72.
Martinez insists he is hopeful of signing Barry on a permanent deal but realises his club are at a disadvantage because of a clause written into the loan agreement when the 33-year-old joined them last August. It states that City will be due the backdated fee if he does complete the move to Everton.

Mm. piste- ja voittoennätyksien lisäksi Everton nousi jakamaan myös tätä ennätystä. 72 pinnaa on komea saldo ja kokonaisuutena kausi oli oikein hyvä, vaikka tietysti enemmänkin olisi voinut olla tarjolla.
Everton trio Phil Jagielka, Leighton Baines and Ross Barkley will all be heading to Brazil this summer after being included in England's 23-man squad for the World Cup. Manager Roy Hodgson has also named Blues defender John Stones as one of seven standby players for the tournament.
