Everton travel to Sunderland this weekend, fighting fatigue and the Di Canio effect. The home side need the three points for survival while the Blues are looking to prove their European football credentials.

We've often spoken with The Roker Report in recent years especially after the number of times Everton have played Sunderland. The latest addition to their writers, Luke Bowley chatted with us today about Paulo Di Canio and other assorted topics.

An old school road performance from Everton had plenty of grit and toughness, it just didn't have quite the touch it needed to take all three points.

Everton gave a good account of themselves Tuesday night at the Emirates, but it wasn't enough to secure David Moyes's first victory at Arsenal. Still, the draw maintains the status quo and sets up what should be a frenetic finish to the season.

We won't have late gamethreads two weeks in a row. Not on my watch! (Note: Last weeks was my fault)

Everton travel to Arsenal in a game that should determine whether the Blues will be playing Europe or not next season. Also, David Moyes has never won at the Emirates, is that about to change?

Everton travel to London again, this time to face Arsenal in a game that will greatly determine the Blues' European football aspirations. We spoke to our fellow SB Nation blog The Short Fuse ahead of the game.

As usual, comment below.
