Because their manager is better than ours.....oh wait, no
Because their tactics are much better than ours obviously.
I think it'd be better to wait for end of season League table before judgment. Points total decides better-ness.
I just think this is all a bit pre-emptive.
To clarify, their game in hand is away to Arsenal.
Then they have to play us at Anfield.
We have lost one in 6 so are playing decent football.
Im not saying we 100% will finish ahead of them of course, I just think this thread is too early.

Is right, fuck this shit "they're better than us".
When was the last time they won anything? Them winning something is having the bragging rights when they beat us, or once in a blue moon finishing above us, that's their aspirations. As for them having better quality than us, I don't really agree, they've got a good squad but they lack anyone of the quality of Gerrard, Suarez or Coutinho.
We've just been inconsistent and lack a few players, we've got better quality in several players, they just have a bit more of a balanced side and let's not forget, regardless of transfer fees, a manager that's had years to instill his methods and stabilise his setup. Or does that count for nothing because they've spent less 🙄
Yes.
All I'm saying is that if they finish above us then they are better than us this season.
Yes.
I was joking, kinda. But there's a big difference in one trophy and 20-odd that we've won. Finishing slightly higher in the league for a season or two does not make you better. Clubs exist to win trophies and we are miles better than Everton at doing it. I could not care less about finishing slightly lower than them, given that they haven't actually achieved anything by finished higher. We're in a better position to win trophies and also to compete with the top teams in the next few years, something I can't see Everton doing for a long time.
Let them have their "Summer in The Lying Rag".....
Finishing above us to them is like winning the league.... When we do it to them we don't give a shit....
That says it all.

Nope.
They are a better side than us, though. 2 years on the trot above us, with a fraction of the budget and a good manager. There's no point denying it. They are. League table doesn't lie and all that.
They're not a better "club", though.

The comparison between us and them proves, if proof were needed, that a good team unit can take you further than greater individual talent, once the players involved are above a certain minimum standard at any rate.
That said, this is as good as it's going to get for them, unless some sugar daddy comes in and bankrolls the club. I don't think that's true of us, and I reckon we'll be back ahead of them in the not too distant future.

It's strange because if you look on paper, I would take maybe only one or two of their players over ours. But as a team they're so much more solid and consistent than us. I agree with JJ that it's proof of how far teamwork gets you, and a good manager of course.
If we had their fight, determination and cohesion, we'd be well on our way to being a good team. At the minute, though, we have too many bottlers.
