We're sifting through the defeat to Manchester City on the first Royal Blue podcast of the week.
Host Phil Kirkbride is joined by Dave Prentice and Gav Buckland, and Marco Silva's decision to play three at the back is top of the agenda.
One of podcasters thinks it was a bad idea. Another thinks Silva was right to go with it.
Buckland's pre-match wish to see Dominic Calvert-Lewin given a chance at City was granted and the lads discuss whether the young striker now needs to be given a run as the Blues face three games in seven days.
Also up for discussion is the growing concern over the consistency of the squad's wingers, Seamus Coleman's performance at the weekend is talked about, as is the run of form which is the worst since Silva took charge.
The lads talk about ways the manager can get Everton back to winning ways and it wouldn't be a Royal Blue podcast without talk turning to signing a new - yes, you guessed it - striker.
