Good time to face Chelsea

May 8 2007

by Tony Cottee, Liverpool Echo

 

EVERTON have already learned one important lesson from their last European qualification campaign two years ago – not to start celebrating too soon.

The Blues must travel down to Chelsea on Sunday, in similar circumstances to their ill fated trip to Arsenal two years ago. And it's important that the Toffees do not finish on a low note.

The memory of the last match of the season stays with you throughout the summer, no matter how successful the campaign has been, so it's important that Everton go to Stamford Bridge, do themselves justice and don't suffer another 7-0 hiding.

It might actually be a good time for Everton to visit Chelsea.

With an FA Cup final on the horizon none of their big name players will be wanting to pick up injuries.

I've been in that position myself and while you try to give 100% as usual, there's a nagging fear in the back of your mind that you don't want to pick up an injury so close to such a big game.

If Everton can go down to London and get about Chelsea they can take advantage of that.

A draw would be a fantastic result and it would set Everton up nicely for the summer.
