Everton are considered lucky to score the equalizing goal in the final minutes of the game, even though they have 10 players remaining for a long time. For Tottenham, the red card Lucas received in the last minutes was bad. They won't be able to take advantage of him in the next match. It must be a bittersweet feeling now that both teams have won 1 point.

Tottenham have same points as Newcastle United and Manchester United but they already played 2 more matches than those competitors for last two positions in top four.

Table shows that Tottenham are no longer controlling their chance to race with Manchester United and Newcastle United. They will have to hope both competitors won't win one or two matches of their rescheduled matches. Those conditions are very hard to be met and a first match after Conte sack is not actually happy for Tottenham.

Premier league is an unforgiving league if you are not good even for a little bit, and these managers have been bad for a while as well. Not like they had a few bad games, in fact Tuchel started the season and he wasn't this bad and he was fired in less games for having even better result, whereas Potter managed the team for so long, with still terrible results. Just because they come thus far in UCL, he shouldn't have been kept. Its good that teams are finally figuring out that keeping the manager is not a big deal, you can fire them anytime you want, if the manager is bad, why wait? No reason to be patient about it at all, they are obviously bad.

Premier League has many rich clubs with good budgets for operations and they don't mind to pay compensation for coaches if they fire their coaches before contract expiration dates. In modern football and with rich clubs, patience is something does not exist and coaches can be fired anytime. Players can be sold if they have poor contributions in their clubs.

It is more hilariously that in such modern football, players are safer than coaches who are more sensitive to be sacked if results are bad. Club bosses are more keen to protect players than coaches and it's easily for them to sack one person (by choosing coach) or a few people (by choosing players).
