Everton are facing a potentially sizable points deduction if they are found guilty of breaching the Premier League’s financial rules back in 2021-22.<\/p>\n
An independent commission is currently handling the case after the club posted staggering\u00a0financial losses of almost \u00a3372million over a three-year period, more than \u00a3250m above what the Premier League’s guidelines permits.<\/p>\n
The commission will have say on the punishment and it could be suggested that Everton are given a fine, transfer embargo or deducted up to 12 points.<\/p>\n
This season, that points deduction would put them on a total of minus five – but how would Everton have fared over the last three seasons?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Last year, Everton narrowly avoided relegation in a campaign that saw Frank Lampard sacked for Sean Dyche.\u00a0<\/p>\n

They ended up finishing in 17th place on 36 points, just two points above the drop zone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If they had received a 12 point penalty, they would have finished bottom of the Premier League table and Leicester City could have avoided the drop.\u00a0<\/p>\n
This would have meant they finished below Southampton and Leeds United as well.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the 2021-22 season, Lampard took over from Rafa Benitez after a brief stint from Duncan Ferguson as interim manager.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everton finished on a higher total to last year with 39 points, but the 12 point deduction would have again seen Everton get relegated.<\/p>\n
With Leeds on 38 points, the Toffees would have dropped to 18th place on 27 points meaning Burnley would have survived.<\/p>\n
In the 2020-21 season, however, Everton would not have gone down if they received a points deduction as they finished the season in 10th on 59 points.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The penalty would have seen them drop only one place to 11th, below Aston Villa.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
