Proof that Everton are circling the drain: Detailed analysis over last 20 years shows they are MOST likely established club to go down... they're £140m in debt, have a scoring crisis and a points deduction could be around the corner

Everton are the club most likely in danger of relegation this season among the Premier League’s ‘established’ teams - a group of 13 clubs who have each spent at least three consecutive seasons in the top flight ahead of the 2023-24 campaign.

Detailed analysis of troubled Premier League clubs over the past 20 years points to Everton being in a classic ‘circling the drain’ cycle where relegation will become increasingly likely without dramatic off-field investment and innovation.

This type of boost does not appear to be on the horizon at Goodison Park; in fact the opposite is true.
