The Premier League 2022/23

Everton will certainly appeal any points deduction. That process will take them well into the summer and beyond. The team who will benefit from Everton's demise will be Luton or Boro.

I would certainly hope regardless that if it comes to it we focus on getting at least 18th, just in case. Imagine if we gave up, finished 19th and then the deduction held.

Also, before anyone says, well it was a previous season or we don't deserve to stay up like that etc. They have quite clearly broken the rules and benefitted over multiple seasons, they'd have gone down last year (meaning a weaker team stayed up that we could've beaten). Plus this year they still signed Onana who would likely be one of our best players and have multiple players they shouldn't have been able to keep.

I feel like on principle I would love to see them down, although I do think they would find it easier to recover as there is still money there. Leicester will find it harder as the owners are broke post covid hence the collapse this year. Once you take out Maddison and Barnes their team looks pretty average.
