Everton have made Piers Morgan look foolish by beating the drop to dispel his mid-season prediction.
In January, Sean Dyche’s first game as Toffees boss saw him welcome league leaders Arsenal to Goodison Park. It could not have been much difficult for the former Burnley manager on paper but, against the odds, Everton ground out a 1-0 win.
That result showed the first signs of weakness in an Arsenal title charge that, up until that point, showcased unwavering confidence. Three points also instilled belief into Blues that survival could be secured - a feat they achieved with a 1-0 triumph over Bournemouth on the final day.
