Considering the likelihood of relegation for Sheffield United, Burnley, and Luton Town, Everton should be safe from Premier League relegation.
Former Goodison Park scout Bryan King thinks the three freshly promoted players aren’t good enough for the premier league.
The Toffees are now in 16th place, followed by Nottingham Forest in 17th, while the bottom three are Sheffield United, Burnley, and Luton.
Speaking to Goodison News, King said: “It’s funny that the three clubs that look as though they could be relegated, are the three clubs everybody would have said at the start of the season are going to find it very hard in the Premier League anyway.
“Sheffield United, Burnley and Luton really are not good enough for the Premier League. So we have the situation with them again whereby they go down, they do well in the Championship, probably come up the following year.
“They’ll get the parachute payment, then they get another big payment. It’s not a level playing field. I’d feel more aggrieved if I was in the Championship, watching what is going on here.”
Nevertheless, those happy days are long gone, as the Merseyside team is currently deeply embroiled in a relegation battle even after receiving four points back—and they could even lose more points.
