SHEFFIELD UTD MATCH REVIEW: Out of Runway
May 17, 2021 00:18 - 1 hour - 51.8 MBOnce again, behind a lackluster attack and the same poor individual performances, Everton drop a match to Sheffield Untied 1-0 at Goodison Park.

We even discuss the most important questio...

Brighton Match Review: Walking Wounded
April 13, 2021 03:25 - 51 minutes - 41 MBThe injury problem at Everton continues to thwart the Toffees hopes for a top 6 finish, after a comically depleted side managed to scrap a draw away against xG FC, aka Brighton & Hove Albion.

March 20, 2021 22:29 - 51 minutes - 35.7 MBEverton dropped out of the FA Cup Saturday evening after a 2-0 loss to champions-in-waiting Manchester City.

March 14, 2021 01:40 - 1 hour - 57.4 MBEverton lost their 7th home PL match of the season Saturday, falling 2-1 to Burnley after conceding 2 goals in the first half hour of play. A Doucoure and Siggy-less midfield meant Carlo once again had to change personel, and brought Tom Davies into the middle with Iwobi in a free number 10 role. Ultimately it was too large an obstacle to overcome with EFC scuffing several good chances. James and Ryan walk through what went wrong, including the formation changes, subs, and tactics. We...
Chelsea Match Review: Blanked at the Bridge
March 09, 2021 02:43 - 56 minutes - 45.4 MBEFC fell to Thomas Tuchel's resurgent Chelsea side 2-0 on Monday night, marking the Toffee's first away defeat since November.

Time to regroup before we face Burnley on Saturday as our quest for E...
West Brom Match Review: Fat Man Fume
March 05, 2021 01:00 - 58 minutes - 46.8 MBThe Toffees moved into 5th place following their 3rd consecutive win Thursday evening, a 1-0 nail-biter vs West Bromwich Albion. Much like the Southampton match earlier in the week, Everton managed to create very little threat for most of the game, but a bit of micro-management by Don Carlo to put Gylfi on a corner kick paid dividends. On his second try he found the head of Richarlison who has now scored in 4 consecutive matches, the first Brazillian to do so in the Premier League. James a...
So'ton Match Review: Ugly Wins Still Count
March 02, 2021 03:40 - 57 minutes - 45.9 MBEverton have won their first home Premier League match of 2021 after defeating a struggling Southampton side 1-0 on Monday night.

James and Ryan bask in the glorious aftermath of the match and celebra...
Man City Match Review: Into the Buzzsaw
February 18, 2021 03:40 - 51 minutes - 41.1 MBEverton were played off their own pitch by a dominant Manchester City team midweek, giving them their 17th consecutive victory. The 1-3 loss at Goodison brings the Toffee's home winless streak to 5 games. Despite going in level at the break through a brief moment of brilliance by Iwobi, Coleman, Lucas Digne and Richarlison, the well-oiled machine of City were too much for a side still missing some key players. James and Ryan begin with the news of an exciting new partnership between club s...
Fulham Match Review: First Time for Everything
February 15, 2021 03:41 - 56 minutes - 45.1 MBEverton fell 0-2 to Fulham at Goodison Park on Sunday, the first home loss to the Cottagers EVER. An immensely frustrating afternoon with the Toffees managing just 2 shots on target and looking devoid of ideas and energy for most of the fixture. This was another opportunity to pick up points against relegation-fodder that has slipped past, but Carlo and company must quickly course correct with Man City and Liverpool awaiting in the next 6 days. Ryan and James vent, question the tactical ch...
Spurs FA Cup Match Review: The Best Defense is a Good Offense
February 11, 2021 02:51 - 1 hour - 34.6 MBEverton defeated Spurs in a thrilling, nervy 5-4 Cup tie at Goodison Park that felt more like a fever dream than a football match. The Blues battled back as did Spurs to take the match to extra time where a Bernard volley made the difference to advance the Toffees to the quarterfinal of the FA Cup. James and Ryan joyously dissect the mayhem, praising the resolve, commitment and desire shows by the midfield engine of Tom Davies, Doucoure and Gylfi Sigurdsson. They also break down all the k...
Man United Match Review: Leaving it Late
February 07, 2021 02:52 - 52 minutes - 41.7 MBAnyone experiencing whiplash after that one?? Everton claimed a stunning point at Old Trafford after erasing 0-2 and 2-3 deficits, with Dominic Calvert-Lewin scoring the last goal in the 94th minute. The blues scored all 3 of their shots on target, but by and large allowed United to dictate much of the play. The point sees us move back into the top 6 with games in hand. James and Ryan hash out the result, going through the different tactical phases of the match, lauding the spirit of the t...
Leeds Match Review: The Elland Road Slip n' Slide
February 04, 2021 02:54 - 50 minutes - 40.4 MBEverton have won 4 consecutive away league games since 1985, after first half goals from Gylfi Sigurdsson and DCL were enough to defeat Marco Bielsa's Leeds side 2-1.

James and Ryan break down all the tactics, key moments, and player performances including a resurgent Portuguese and Everton's biggest surprise of t...
Newcastle Match Review: Nowhere to Hide
January 30, 2021 19:48 - 50 minutes - 34.8 MBEverton fell to bottom-of-the-form-table Newcastle United 0-2 at Goodison Park. With Newcastle winless in their last 11 matches prior, this ended up being a classic "Everton, that" moment where it felt as though the Toffees could have played for a million hours without scoring. Despite the strong lineup on paper (and NUFC's obvious weaknesses), the Blues failed to test Karl Darlow much after the opening minutes. James & Ryan react to the disappointment and try to make sense of a frustratin...
Leicester City Match Review: Staying in the Mix
January 28, 2021 03:34 - 58 minutes - 46.5 MBEverton drew 1-1 at Goodison Park against a Vardy-less Leicester City after a James Rodriguez wonderstrike was cancelled out by a 2nd half Pickford error. With plenty of personnel restrictions, Carlo Ancelotti elected for a pragmatic approach, allowing the Foxes to control most of the possession in exchange for maintaining a strong defensive shape. J+R break down all the key moments, stats, and tactics from start to finish in what was an important match. Equally important to win the ma...

January 25, 2021 02:08 - 41 minutes - 33.2 MBA borderline relaxing Sunday evening for the Toffees as they easily brushed aside Championship outfit Sheffield Wednesday 3-0 to move into the 5th round of the FA Cup.

December 24, 2020 03:07 - 57 minutes - 52.3 MBEverton bow out of the Carabao Cup in the quarterfinals after a late Cavani winner in the 88th minute dashed the hopes of an undeserved win by the Toffees.
