Truth is that Everton have performed well this season and if not for financial fair play point deduction, the club side will be battling for an Europa league spot at this stage of the Campaignl
Even with those 10 points, they would currently be at 12th place in the league table, so pretty far from Europa League.
They have fairly good defence with only 28 goals lost, but they have no attacking power and that's their main problem. They need to take more risks and and aim for wins not draws. Their current position is not pretty, they have only 1 point advantage over Luton, but Luton have one less game played and they will be highly motivated to escape from the red zone.
Burnley and Sheffield are already doomed.
Despite losing 10 points, Everton's performance has been quite good this season. However, Everton's performance in the last four matches was very poor. However, in the matches Everton played against the big teams of the Premier League. The team lost against City, Tottenham and Wolves. However, Everton have managed to share points with Aston Villa, who have been in great form this season. Everton can still stay away from the relegation zone after losing 10 points. Because the defense of this team is relatively good. They conceded 28 goals. I would say Everton's defense is better than Manchester United, Tottenham and Chelsea. Everton have conceded fewer goals than these three giant teams. I think we will see Everton in 12th/13th position in the points table at the end of the season.
