Theo Walcott, a former Everton winger, believes that the Toffees will be able to survive in the Premier League this season despite the possibility of facing a points deduction for financial rule breaches. Despite their struggles in recent matches, not winning any of their last 13 league games, Walcott is optimistic about Everton’s chances of staying in the league.
According to Walcott, the players cannot afford to be distracted by the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the potential points deduction. He believes that they need to focus on their performances on the pitch and not let external factors affect them negatively. However, he acknowledges that it’s difficult for players to concentrate when there’s so much uncertainty around them.
Despite these challenges, Walcott is confident that Everton has what it takes to stay in the Premier League. He pointed out that Everton has a lot of experience in the dressing room with players who have been through relegation battles before. He believes that this experience will help them navigate through any obstacles they might face this season. Additionally, he noted that Everton’s new stadium construction could also play a crucial role in helping them overcome any difficulties they may encounter.
Walcott expressed his belief that Everton will be able to overcome any challenges and maintain its position in the Premier League with its quality and experienced players. To hear more from him, you can listen to his full podcast on BBC Sounds.
