A licence coach JJ and professional analyst Enya Collins say the data and the eye test agree — and it isn't Tonali. Jim, Enya and JJ walk through Spurs 0-0 Everton from the system up: Archie Gray inverting from right back, Mateus Fernandes dropping into a back three, Van Hecke's progressive passing, and the half-space run that was on all first half. Enya's numbers show Tottenham won possession, progressive passes and touches in the box — 28 of them — and still lost on xG. JJ explains the David Moyes tweak that shut the midfield down after the break. Then Jim asks the panel to tell him straight whether the £100m midfielder is the problem. The answer involves the 84th percentile, seventh in the Premier League, and a comparison with Rice and Caicedo you'll want to hear before the next Tonali pile-on. Where the eye test meets the data.

Is Solanke with Marmoush behind him really the fix for Tottenham's goal drought? Professional analyst Enya says the pairing everyone wants costs Spurs more than it adds — and that Marmoush can score 20 this season. Jim and Enya walk through what a De Zerbi number nine actually does, Marmoush's first games in detail, why the missing piece is a creative 10 rather than a target man, and the breaking Mudryk injury news that changes the winger picture. Then a full Everton preview: cracking the Moyes low block, score predictions, and Tel's breakthrough moment. They also get into whether De Zerbi has quietly lost authority over team selection — and once you hear the biomechanics discussion, you'll understand why Spurs players are suddenly sipping cherry juice.

After a summer of silence, Everton went media-mad this week as David Moyes and Angus Kinnear both did the rounds ahead of the new season. And the two interviews couldn't have sounded more different. Les and Dave dig into the contradictions as Moyes says the squad's "got a long way to go," while Kinnear says "we're not behind where we thought we would be." So, who's right, and is there a genuine disconnect between the manager and the boardroom? We also get into the numbers behind the Hill Dickinson Stadium as Everton leap from bottom-third to top-third revenue in the league. And a stadium quote that genuinely stopped us in our tracks about how "Everton" the brand should actually be.

Welcome back to the Royal Blue podcast! EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee In today's episode, Ian Croll is joined by the Liverpool Echo's Everton reporters Chris Beesley and Joe Thomas to dissect the major talking points surrounding the Blues as the Premier League fixtures drop and pre-season preparations loom. The main item on today's agenda is manager David Moyes' controversial interview on talkSPORT. Speaking on Jim White's show, Moyes caused an immediate stir among the fan base when asked about Everton's aims and ambitions for the upcoming campaign. Moyes remarked:“I don't know if a club like Everton now we can make big, huge strides but we see how well the likes of Bournemouth and Brentford are doing, so there's no reason why we all shouldn't have those ambitions to try and at least match those clubs and how they go about it. But I would have to say that at Everton we are trying to be back up at the top end of the teams that we can. For long periods of last season we were, we just didn't quite have enough in the last four or five weeks of the season.” Unsurprisingly, these comments have not gone down well with many Evertonians. The panel debates whether Moyes is merely injecting a dose of harsh realism regarding the club's current recruitment model, or if he is guilty of deliberately managing expectations downwards. Furthermore, we address the frustration of fans who feel that comparing a historic giant like Everton to historically smaller clubs like Bournemouth and Brentford shows a glaring lack of elite ambition.

Royal Blue: The Everton FC Podcast: Ian Croll & Andy Dunn EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee The business end of the season is here, but for Everton, the gears seem to be grinding. In this latest episode of the Royal Blue Podcast, host Ian Croll sits down with the Daily Mirror's Chief Sports Reporter Andy Dunn to dissect a pivotal moment in the Blues' campaign. Everton's European ambitions have hit a significant roadblock. Following a frustrating 2-2 draw at Selhurst Park—where the Toffees twice surrendered the lead—the stats make for grim reading: just two points taken from the last 15 available. With only two games remaining, the "European Dream" is now hanging by a thread, and David Moyes' side no longer controls their own destiny. On Today's Agenda: The Slump & why has the momentum stalled? We look at the recent run of results and why Everton are struggling to get over the line in the final third. With the gap widening, we analyze the permutations. Everton are now in the uncomfortable position of relying on other teams to stumble just to keep their top-seven hopes alive. The Managerial Question: David Moyes has transformed the club since his return in January 2025, but with his contract situation looming, should The Friedkin Group pull the trigger on a long-term deal now, or wait to see how the season concludes? A Crucial Summer: Recruitment has been the Achilles' heel in years past. Andy Dunn gives his insight on why the upcoming window is the most important in a decade to ensure this season's progress isn't a one-off. Is the European dream dead, or is there one last twist in the tale? Should the club back Moyes regardless of the final league position?

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.

Lack of capable officiating? Lack of clinical play on the counter? Paddy spoke to the excellent Merlin Rohl after the game and gives us an insight into that chat. There's also a look ahead to the summer transfer window, as the rumour mill starts to ramp up again.

Roberto De Zerbi thought he had a priceless win at the weekend as Spurs scored a late would-be-winner against Brighton, only for Georginio Rutter to strike in the 95th minute to break Lilywhite hearts. Elsewhere, an even later goal broke Everton hearts as Virgil Van Dijk settled the first Merseyside Derby at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. 109 minutes had passed before the Dutchman headed home a corner, keeping Liverpool's Champions League qualification hopes alive. Marley and Joel are on hand to talk through all the headlines from the weekend's action on today's FSD.

Numb to it all now, aren't we? Aren't we!?! The lads have the unenviable job of talking about Everton's latest Merseyside derby masterpiece. Matt - after an antibiotics and alcohol mix - and Paddy - fresh from a big rewrite - had to steel themselves for this one. So why does it keep happening? Is it something deeper or just dreadful defending? And how can Moyes and the players pick themselves up for a European run? It'll be therapeutic. Honestly.
Les and Dave are back to discuss another late derby defeat for Everton, another appalling refereeing display, and some more substitute issues from Moyes. Even so, the European push is still open with a pivotal fixture at West Ham coming up on Saturday.Blue Monday is brought to you with Invisible Wind Factory - pop in on your way to the Man City game on May 4 for food, drinks, and What's the Score? at the Windy live show.Get tickets for The Kairos gig there on April 25th here - https://www.invisiblewindfactory.com/event/the-kairos-invisible-wind-factory-liverpool/And don't forget your 20% voucher when shopping at forevereverton.co.uk - BLUEROOM20 Learn more about your ad choices.

LISTEN IN FULL: https://tinyurl.com/4hrpmyrp Matt is joined by Liam, Mick and Connor this week. We continue to talk up Dewsbury-Hall after his equaliser at Brentford before talk turns to the derby. What do we make of the Reds ahead of their visit to Hill Dickinson Stadium? And should Moyes roll the dice with George after his sparkling cameo last weekend?
Another late Everton goal saw the Toffees take an important point away at Brentford. But the league is so tight that just six points separate Chelsea in 6th from Newcastle in 14th. Every point is crucial if we want to qualify for Europe. With both teams in almost identical form, how should Moyes approach the weekend's derby? Learn more about your ad choices.

Not long until real football is back - but there are still news lines for Matt and Paddy to pick through. We look at the latest on Jack Grealish's future after reports linking the winger with an Everton extension. Then we delve into the recruitment setup and how it might function after Paddy's interview with Nick Cox. Finally we piggyback on Everton's international break question - who is the best XI to have played under Moyes for the Blues?
David Moyes, the Friedkin Era, and Everton's European Charge
International break means Matt and Paddy turn to your questions. There are two main themes this week - Roma and Moyes' contract. Do we know what will happen if the Blues and the Giallorossi both qualify for the same UEFA competition? Do we need more clarification? After reports of a new contract for Moyes, is a new deal really close? And would it be worth keeping him if there has to be any compromise around recruitment? We also look at the coaching staff, Tim Iroegbunam's future and potential forward arrivals in the summer.
