Everton will only have a great season if they finish in the top six this season, Yakubu Ayegbeni has said. He recently revealed that playing alongside teams like MUFC, MCFC, Liverpool and Chelsea makes a top-four finish very difficult.
According to him, Everton can definitely make the UCL positions in the coming years, but finishing in top six should be the goal right now.
Yakubu added that Benitez has brought his experience to the club and he expects him to do well.
His words, “At this point? No! if we can finish in the top six or top seven, that would be great.”
“When we have teams like Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and Manchester City, that would be pretty difficult.”
“That is possible in a couple of years to come but for now, that’s not possible. If we can finish in the top six, that means we have had a great season.”
On Benitez, “When you look at the way Everton are playing in recent times, they are playing well.”
“Benitez has brought his experience because he has been in this business for a long period of time with Valencia, Liverpool, Newcastle United and Chelsea.”

“He is an experienced manager and one of the best in the world. With him, I think he can push these boys to achieve the goals and that would make Evertonians very happy.”
“If he can lead the team to finish in the top six, that would be great.”
