Everton ‘won’t give up fourth place’

DAVID WEIR has delivered a defiant message to those who feel Everton are cracking under the pressure of going for Champions League qualification insisting “we won’t give up fourth place.”

The pressure is greatest from their neighbours Liverpool as the two Mersey giants plus Bolton battle for fourth spot.

Everton have been in the top four since September but have dropped 27 out of a possible 45 points since the turn of the year, compounded by Saturday's defeat at Fulham.
