Could Everton leave Goodison Park will all the points on Monday?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> They\u2019re very capable. We\u2019ll have to be at our best if we\u2019re going to get something out of this one. Tough place to go, team looks settled, good manager.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reporter:<\/strong> Jordan Ayew is a real crowd favourite and has delighted fans with his recent performances. Do you think the supporters\u2019 backing will help him maintain this form?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> The fans have been brilliant and I know Jordan wants to thank them for all their support. Jordan has set the standard now, he needs to maintain his levels of consistency.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reporter:<\/strong> Who do you think is going down as we reach the business end of the season?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> Burnley.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reporter:<\/strong> Why have you picked them as your tip for relegation?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Me:<\/strong> They\u2019ve got a tough run-in and if their recent form is anything to go by then they\u2019re doomed. They still need to play Chelsea, Liverpool and Tottenham.<\/p>\n<p>That ends the press conference, admittedly Watford are most doomed with a six-point deficit to Leicester City just outside the relegation zone but I thought my answer was appropriate and measured, I gave a reason. Sadly a certain Sean Dyche is not impressed. For a man whose vote is akin to shovelling gravel and possessing a handshake with has the same effect of a minor traffic accident, I\u2019m wary of getting on his brutal side.<\/p>\n<p>His response was peak Dyche; <strong><em>\u201cI\u2019m intrigued that Tango appears to have such a strong grip on the mental strength of my players, I\u2019m far less concerned than he is, put it that way.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It didn\u2019t help that the question, by ESPNFC.com journalist Victor Kashuba suggested that I\u2019d said that Sean\u2019s side \u2018doesn\u2019t have the bottle\u2019 to stay up, which is ludicrous and not what I said at all.
