December 16, 2018 18:54 - 24 minutes - 19.8 MB

A disappointing, but somewhat expected 3-1 loss to Manchester City continues our unfortunate run of winless fixtures. However, our ability to create chances against teams at the top and play with purpose and conviction even after going down should be looked at in a positive light.

A Dip in Form and a Fortunate Point

December 11, 2018 03:15 - 30 minutes - 24.2 MB

Everton 2 - 2 Watford. The away fans brought snakes and Everton didn't bring their A-game. We have to consider ourselves fortunate to escape with a point. Some bright spots early on were ultimately overshadowed by an outrageous 5 minute period that saw us go down and and then nearly equalize. Keeping with the recent theme of late drama (this time in our favor) Lucas Digne saved us with a brilliantly taken set piece goal in stoppage time. Learn more about your ad choices.

The Mersey-died Derby: 1-0 Bad Guys

December 03, 2018 03:14 - 30 minutes - 24.1 MB

Title says it all folks. The boys in blue put in a tremendous shift for 94 minutes, only to see it all come crashing down in the most perfectly Everton way imaginable.

November 30, 2018 02:43 - 28 minutes - 33.1 MB

Here we go Blues. The fated Merseyside Derby at Anfield is upon us. By now, most of us have probably let the optimism get the best of us and might even be getting our hopes up a bit. And why not? The team is in great form, we have a balanced squad with nothing to lose and we should be able to cause them problems in ways we haven't been capable of in previous seasons.

Post-match musings after a comprehensive and emphatic win for the Blues vs Brighton & Hove Albion. Undeservedly even at half after the issue of zonal marking on set pieces reared its ugly head again.

Man United Match Review

October 28, 2018 21:53 - 27 minutes - 24.7 MB

Not quite how we were hoping to cap off the weekend. A respectable away performance from the boys in blue was overshadowed by some shocking decisions from Jon Moss (aka 12th man for whichever top 6 side plays Everton) and a neat little finish from Anthony Martial just after half. In this episode we break down the match, and look to take positives from some strong individual showings in midfield and defense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

October 21, 2018 18:08 - 31 minutes - 28.9 MB

Three wins on the bounce now after a dramatic win in which we almost resorted to classic Toffee form (conceding a penalty against the run of play).

Crystal Palace Pre-Match

October 19, 2018 00:44 - 24 minutes - 22.1 MB

Momentum, momentum. Looking for 3 PL wins in a row for the first time since the 2016/17 season, Everton face a Crystal Palace side who have started the season poorly and will likely have their 2 biggest attacking threats unavailable. You'd think it would be a must-win, especially with the away fixture vs Manchester United looming on the horizon, but it is Everton after all.
