Graeme Souness believes Everton are back in danger of being relegated from the Premier League after they missed the chance to confirm survival against Brentford. Despite leading twice at Goodison Park, Frank Lampard’s side lost 3-2 after Rico Henry’s header completed the turnaround.
The result dragged the Toffees back into contention to drop out of the Premier League for the first time after Leeds United picked up a point against Brighton. They return to Goodison Park on Thursday where they have a second chance to secure survival but they will have to do it without Jarrad Branthwaite and Salomon Rondon who were both shown red cards.
Everton are still big favourites to avoid relegation but Souness believes they’re back in an awkward situation. He was asked on Sky Sports where they find themselves heading into the final week of the Premier League season.
