EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee.  The Blues are looking to bounce back from the late heartbreak against Manchester City, and the timing might be perfect. With Crystal Palace securing their place in the UEFA Conference League Final after their victory on Thursday night, the big question is: can Everton take advantage? With the Eagles' priorities potentially shifted toward their historic European showpiece, Moyes will be drilling into his side the need to pounce on any drop in intensity. Selection headaches remain at the top of the pitch. After Thierno Barry's two-goal cameo against City, has he done enough to displace Beto in the starting XI? Or will Moyes stick with the physical presence of the Portuguese forward to wear down the Palace backline? #EFC #Everton #DavidMoyes #PremierLeague #CrystalPalace #RoyalBlue #Beto #ThiernoBarry Chris Beesley's Book: Spirit of the Blues: https://tinyurl.com/35yrkvdb *Emotional farewell to Goodison Park | 16-page Everton souvenir picture special:*  https://shop.regionalnewspapers.co.uk/liverpool-echo-monday-19th-may-2025-4583-p.asp *Goodbye to Goodison special souvenir edition:*  https://tinyurl.com/GoodbyeGoodisonSouvenir *Gavin Buckland's Book 'The End' | Order your copy here:* https://tinyurl.com/GavinBucklandTheEnd Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO's Royal Blue YouTube channel.

Despite a late Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall strike giving the Blues a lifeline, a 90th-minute winner from Callum Wilson left David Moyes' side empty-handed. With the Blues now three games without a win, the panel discusses what needs to change. Is it a lack of urgency, or are the tactical decisions catching up with the squad? How does David Moyes fix the "flatness" before the season slips away? With only four games remaining, we take a deep dive into the Premier League table. We analyze Everton's upcoming fixtures against the run-ins of our European rivals. Who has the toughest path to the finish line? Next up is the daunting task of Manchester City at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

The Egyptian king was forced off with a suspected hamstring tear, and with reports suggesting he could face four weeks on the sidelines, we discuss whether we have seen the last of Salah in a Liverpool shirt before his summer departure. Also on the agenda: How Liverpool capitalized on Villa's slip-up to take control of their European destiny. Analyzing the impact of Mo's injury and how Slot navigates the final games without his talisman. We look back at the bizarre Crystal Palace goal from Daniel Muñoz, scored while goalkeeper Freddie Woodman lay injured.

Host Ian Croll and the Liverpool Echo's Chris Beesley dive into a somber week for the Blues following a painful 2-1 defeat in the Merseyside Derby. While the result at the Hill Dickinson Stadium stings, the long-term consequences could be even more severe. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee The headline news is the injury to Jarrad Branthwaite. After being stretchered off in the dying minutes against Liverpool, reports suggest the star defender is facing two months on the sidelines with a hamstring tear. With the 23-year-old's season potentially over, Ian and Chris discuss how David Moyes recalibrates a defense that has looked far more stable with the England international in the lineup. The guys turn their attention to Beto. Despite a tireless work rate, questions remain about his clinical edge. With his current deal running until 2027, the panel debates the latest rumors surrounding his future: Does he deserve a contract extension to secure his value? Or is it time for Everton to look for a different profile of striker this summer? It's been a tough run for Thierno Barry. After a solid start to his Everton career, his recent performances have dipped, leading to visible frustration in the stands. We explore his complex relationship with the fans and whether the young forward can prove himself as Everton's.  Finally, we wrap up the post-match autopsy of the 2-1 loss to Liverpool. From missed opportunities to controversial officiating, we provide the final word on a derby that leaves Everton looking over their shoulder as the season enters its final stretch. #EFC #EvertonFC #DavidMoyes #EvertonStadium #HillDickinson #RoyalBlue Chris Beesley's Book: Spirit of the Blues: https://tinyurl.com/35yrkvdb *Emotional farewell to Goodison Park | 16-page Everton souvenir picture special:*  https://shop.regionalnewspapers.co.uk/liverpool-echo-monday-19th-may-2025-4583-p.asp *Goodbye to Goodison special souvenir edition:*  https://tinyurl.com/GoodbyeGoodisonSouvenir *Gavin Buckland's Book 'The End' | Order your copy here:* https://tinyurl.com/GavinBucklandTheEnd Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO's Royal Blue YouTube channel.

Royal Blue: Dewsbury-Hall Rescues a Point at the Gtech & Season Ticket Price Hikes. EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee. Join Ian Croll and Joe Thomas for a post-match reaction as Everton showed serious fighting spirit to snatch a point in a chaotic 2-2 draw away at Brentford. The Blues looked to be heading for a narrow defeat until Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall popped up in the 91st minute to sweep home a dramatic equaliser, silencing the Gtech Community Stadium and sending the travelling Toffees into raptures.  We break down the key moments, from Beto's first-half header to the defensive lapses that twice gave the Bees the lead, and ask: is this the "never-say-die" attitude David Moyes has truly instilled in this European-chasing squad? Was a draw a fair result? We discuss the resilience shown to come from behind twice and Dewsbury-Hall's knack for scoring "clutch" goals. We've also got reaction to Friday's announcement regarding season ticket price increases for the 2026/27 season at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. With some fans facing rises of up to 10%, we discuss the timing and the impact on the loyal match-going fanbase. Finally a quick look ahead to Sunday.

Dean Holdsworth joins us this week, taking us inside the madness of the Crazy Gang and the sheer brilliance (and chaos) of eccentric owner Sam Hammam, who once famously “kidnapped” him to get a deal over the line. Starting out at Watford alongside his brother David, Dean recalls their early days winding up the formidable youth team boss Tom Walley. But after struggling to break into the first team, his journey took an unexpected turn  including the bizarre moment he ended up in another club's team photo… without ever signing for them. Fast forward to the peak Crazy Gang years, and Holdsworth was flying, going toe-to-toe with the likes of Shearer, Ian Wright and Teddy Sheringham in the race for the Golden Boot. Add in stories of chaotic pre-seasons, a team bus being burned down, a terrifying knife incident at Goodison Park, and plenty of classic Vinnie Jones antics, and Holdsworth brings to life what it truly meant to be part of Wimbledon's most infamous era. After it all, he reflects on his time at Bolton and his later role as chief executive, where he helped save the club from the brink of administration, only for things to turn sour in dramatic fashion.

Royal Blue: Can Everton Topple the Leaders?

EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee  Join Richard Garnett and Mark Jones on the Blood Red podcast as they pick through the bones of a frustrating night for Arne Slot's side in Istanbul. Liverpool suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Galatasaray at a raucous RAMS Park, a result that felt like "bad déjà vu" after losing by the same scoreline in Turkey during the league phase earlier this season. A 7th-minute header from Mario Lemina proved to be the difference, as the Reds once again struggled to handle set-pieces and the intimidating atmosphere of the "Hell" away end. Despite a dominant opening 15 minutes and several missed chances from the likes of Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike, Liverpool returned to Merseyside trailing in this Champions League Round of 16 tie. Ibrahima Konate saw an equalizer cruelly chalked off by VAR for handball, leaving the Reds with a mountain to climb. Can Liverpool overturn the deficit, or is an early European exit on the cards?

With United firmly back in the Champions League conversation following an unbeaten start to the "Carrick Era," the stakes couldn't be higher. Meanwhile, David Moyes' Everton side find themselves in a peculiar position: boasting one of the best away records in the league but struggling to find their rhythm on the banks of the Mersey.

The Royal Blue Podcast: The Hill Dickinson Hangover and the January Gamble EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee  In the latest episode of the Royal Blue Podcast, Ian Croll is joined by Chris Beesley and Gavin Buckland to dissect a frustrating week for Everton Football Club. The panel starts with the "final word" on Tuesday night's 2-1 collapse against Bournemouth. After leading through an Iliman Ndiaye penalty, how did the Blues allow the game to slip away in just four minutes? The lads discuss the costly misses from Thierno Barry and the late red card for Jake O'Brien that summed up a miserable night at the waterfront. Also on the agenda: Everton's January Transfer Strategy. With the transfer window closed and only Tyrique George arriving on loan, the trio explores Everton's strategy. Was the lack of signings a calculated risk or a missed opportunity that will haunt the club's European ambitions? The lads turn to home form in a broader sense: Why has Hill Dickinson Stadium become so hospitable to visitors? We look into the alarming home form and the growing concerns regarding the atmosphere, debating whether it's the stadium design, the scheduling, or simply the performances on the pitch. And finally, David Moyes is back under the microscope. Is he being stubborn or systematic? The panel questions his recent team selections—specifically the persistence of playing players out of positions when other options are available. Is Moyes being stubborn to a fault Chris Beesley's Book: Spirit of the Blues: https://tinyurl.com/35yrkvdb *Emotional farewell to Goodison Park | 16-page Everton souvenir picture special:*  https://shop.regionalnewspapers.co.uk/liverpool-echo-monday-19th-may-2025-4583-p.asp *Goodbye to Goodison special souvenir edition:*  https://tinyurl.com/GoodbyeGoodisonSouvenir *Gavin Buckland's Book 'The End' | Order your copy here:* https://tinyurl.com/GavinBucklandTheEnd Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO's Royal Blue YouTube channel.
