Surely it’s not happening again? Less than a month ago Everton were seven points clear of the relegation places, and the FA could shove the other 10 points where they pleased. But after three straight defeats, two of them noble efforts against title challengers, they are only above Luton on goal difference. Everton should be fine, because Sean Dyche has turned them into a serious football team again, but they may have to go through the wringer first.
This is Everton’s run of Premier League games, starting with the trip to Tottenham just before Christmas.
