Looking at this upcoming mini block of 5 games every team has 2 tough fixtures but Everton, spurs and United have 2 home games and 3 away games where as Chelsea, arsenal, city and ourselves have 3 home games and 2 away.
It's only the slightest of advantages but with a bit of luck (and a big performance against Everton) maybe we can put a bit of distance between us and the 3 teams immediately below us.
We may even gain some ground on the teams above us too, here's hoping.

Anyway, I've two concerns.
1) Our lack of defensive depth
Loaning Ilori out seems incredibly stupid seeing how we are lacking in that department. Agger, Enrique, Sakho and Johnson are injured. We've only got Kelly, Flanagan, Toure, Skrtel and Cissokho. We could have benefited from having a young and speedy defensive player in the shape of Ilori at such a point in time. Initially at the start of the season I was under the impression that we've got too many defenders but injuries have really hit us hard. Anyone has any idea when the 4 injured defenders will return to action?
2) Joe Allen
I think he's critical to the team. He needs to start ahead of either Coutinho, Sterling or Sturridge. BR has a tough decision to make. Allen offers so much more and he links up very well. He provides a balance and calm to the team that's not present when all 4 attackers start. There's no point going all gung-ho when our defense is shipping in goals like a whore at a red light district. There's only so much our attackers can do after all. Based on form, Coutinho should be dropped as he's been a frustrated figure lately.
