They're joined by the former Everton and England skipper Phil Jagielka to discuss what makes a great captain and why. The trio look back on their careers as leaders and whether they were made or moulded; who their leadership heroes were; the best captains they played under - and the worst - what it's like to face up the media as the skipper; when can you be a friend to your teammates and when you have to be the police; and what sort of responsibilities a modern leader has when the manager takes control of so much of the on-pitch decision making. Phil and Kyle discuss leadership roles at international level and how that differs from being a club captain, and then the current Manchester City skipper talks about the responsibility of taking over the armband of the Premier League champions, the legacy his predecessors left him at the Etihad, and what it was like to raise that trophy above his head at the end of last season.

Our latest Bred a Blue podcast is a little bit different! We travelled to Birmingham City's training complex to catch up with John Ruddy and Lukas Jutkiewicz – two players who had one game each for the Everton's senior team but have since compiled excellent professional careers. Ruddy came from Cambridge United in 2005 and Jutkiewicz arrived from Swindon Town two years later. “The year I left Cambridge, they had been relegated to the Conference and Everton had qualified for the Champions League!” Ruddy recalls. The 'keeper was instantly loaned back to the Abbey Stadium outfit and trained twice a week at Bellefield before playing for Cambridge at the weekend. Jutkiewicz came under the spotlight after helping Swindon Town to the quarter-finals of the 2006/07 FA Youth Cup. “I remember my first session with the Everton first team, I was absolutely blowing!” he says. “I couldn't believe the change in pace, training with players that a few weeks earlier I was watching on Match of the Day.” Ruddy's senior debut, in February 2006, came in the most bizarre of circumstances – he came off the bench against Blackburn Rovers when Iain Turner was sent-off after just nine minutes. “It was probably the best thing because I didn't have time to think. The fans understood that we were down to the bare bones, and it was a situation that nobody could foresee.” Everton won 1-0 but David Moyes moved quickly to bring in Sander Westerveld on loan. “There was an international break after the Blackburn game unfortunately, so that gave the manager time to do something,” added Ruddy. As for Jutkiewicz, he replaced Steven Pienaar late in a 3-0 home victory against Sunderland in December 2008. It was an opportunity that he thought had passed him by. “We'd had a game when I was on the bench and we were chasing a goal,” he says. “David Moyes brought Victor [Anichebe] off and I thought I was going to get a chance, but he put Phil Jagielka up front! That's when I thought it wasn't meant to be.” Ruddy eventually left Everton in 2010 – but it was a close-run thing! He'd just checked his bags in for the Blues' pre-season tour to Australia when Moyes pulled him over and told him to get them back as he was going to Norwich. Jutkiewicz made the trip but then agreed to move to Coventry City while he was Down Under! The two players have since racked up over 500 senior appearances between them and they both have fascinating stories to tell. Ruddy was in goal for Motherwell on the night Jutkiewicz slammed home a stoppage time equaliser in a 6-6 draw with Hibernian! The stopper also revealed that Everton also had a future England international on their radar when they signed him from Cambridge. And which player made Jutkiewicz's life a misery on the pitch at Everton but couldn't have been kinder or more helpful off it?

We've got a special episode of The Football Fill-In this week as Phil Jagielka joins Ben Foster, Mark Goldbridge and Paul Robinson to break down all the weekend drama from the Carabao Cup Final and the Premier League! A depleted Liverpool beat Chelsea at Wembley on Sunday to claim their first trophy of the season but can Jurgen Klopp's side win the ‘Quadruple'?! The lads give their thoughts on that, as well as their take on Mauricio Pochettino's claim that Chelsea were hoping for penalties in extra-time! Manchester United's unbeaten start to 2024 was ended by Fulham after Alex Iwobi scored a 97th minute winner at Old Trafford. Mark Goldbridge gives his honest thoughts on that defeat and where it's left Man United's divided fan base… Plus:

Hear from manager Chris Wilder and returning defender Phil Jagielka, who says he has unfinished business following the club's relegation 12 years ago. Record signing Oli McBurnie explains why he gets compared to Tormund Giantsbane from Game of Thrones. We also hear from Chris "BashamBauer" Basham and Billy Sharp on how much playing in the top flight means to the club and the city.

Fabian Delph may not be the star studded signing many Everton fans crave this Summer, but you won’t hear anyone moaning about the £9million purchase on this podcast. Marco Silva and Marcel Brands have gone against the grain with this transfer. The model of buying up and coming young, hungry, ambitious players, on low wages completely thrown out of the window with this one.Is that necessarily a bad thing, however? Delph may not be all those but what he does offer is a wealth of experience, a winning mentality, versatility and a real eagerness to play football. This week, host Ian Croll is joined by regular guest Connor Bennett and first timer Simon Paul, from the NSNO Everton Twitter account. The lads share their thoughts on the Delph transfer which quickly turned to a positive discussion of what he may bring to the squad. The remaining segments of the podcast includes discussion over what to do over Kurt Zouma, who should be next club captain following the release of Phil Jagielka and can we trust Keane and Mina to form a partnership as formidable as the main two from last season?All that and more.

Our Everton FC reporter Phil Kirkbride may be in Kenya preparing for the Blues' first pre-season friendly, while Adam Jones is deservedly putting his feet-up on holiday, but that hasn't stopped us from recording a Royal Blue podcast to kick-start your weekend in style. Sam Carroll - on his day off, no less - takes over the host's seat while Dave Prentice and Gavin Buckland are the guests, who get us under way with memories of pre-season past. Then comes the meaty stuff as Prenno tears into Unesco and their warning that it could take the city's World Heritage status away if developments including Everton's new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock threaten the 'authenticity and integrity' of Liverpool's waterfront. Speaking of Bramley-Moore, Gav struggles to contain his excitement over the project before talk turns to the actual football, what Andre Gomes had to say at his press conference following his permanent move from Barcelona, and what position Prenno believes Marco Silva still needs to fill. Our trio also talk Phil Jagielka's move back to Sheffield United and pick our their favourite Everton kits after the Blues' latest offering was unveiled this week. Enjoy.

The second entry into Phil Kirkbride's pre-season audio tour diary is a cracker as our Everton FC correspondent catches up with ex-Blues favourite Leon Osman for a special podcast in Kenya. Everton will kick off their summer friendlies on Sunday when they take on Kariobangi Sharks at the Kasarani Stadium. But Ossie, along with former Blues team-mate Steven Pienaar, are already out in Nairobi, and after they handed out kit and training wear to dozens of local football teams as part of SportPesa's Kits for Africa campaign, the former sat down with Phil for a chat. On the agenda was the ex-England international's second trip to Kenya in two years, the clash with Kariobangi Sharks, and his thoughts on the job being done by Marco Silva, and the current players he likes watching the most. Ossie also talks about another of his old team-mates, Phil Jagielka, and remembers David Moyes' infamous pre-season training routines. Enjoy.

Alan Myers is back with the fourth episode of his brilliant Everton podcast - and it's a bumper one to say the least! Little wonder, then, that the usual chat that kicks off the podcast, which also features Liverpool ECHO duo Sam Carroll and Paul Wheelock, is trimmed back a bit. But the trio still fit in discussion over Leighton Baines' new deal, the departure of Nikola Vlasic, the imminent arrival of Andre Gomes, and who Marco Silva and Marcel Brands could turn to next. However, the vast majority of the show is dedicated to the three exclusive interviews Alan has conducted since episode three (which you can listen to HERE, if you haven't done so already). The first of which sees our host sit down with Everton CEO Denise Barrett-Baxendale, who talks about her first year in the job, Bramley-Moore Dock, Phil Jagielka, and the club's plans for the summer. Alan then chats to Andy Burnham, the Labour Mayor of Greater Manchester, who talks growing up as a Blue, the time he advised a group of fans who were against the stadium move to Kirkby, and his message for Silva and Brands. Both are superb interviews - and the same can certainly be said about Alan's sitdown with Everton great Colin Harvey, which is an absolute-listen. And if that's not enough, Alan also catches up with community hero Steve Johnson, who is Everton's cup-winning disability manager. Enjoy!

This week's show sees both sets of fans reflect on their premier league retained lists, as Everton confirmed Phil Jagielka would be leaving the club, whilst across the park, Daniel Sturridge and Alberto Moreno were released by Liverpool. The lads not only give their thoughts on the news of the players leaving and how it impacts the team and plans now and into the summer, but also take a look back at the memories they have of their time at the clubs. The blues close out the show by tackling the reaction to Ronald Koeman's recent comments, that he thought he was sacked too soon by Everton and whether this a fair assessment or whether the club were justified in releasing him at the time they did.

Phil Jagielka leaves Everton - Reaction by All Together Now Everton Podcast

After a quiet few weeks since the end of the Premier League season, things are start to happen at Everton, and just after your latest Royal Blue podcast was recorded, captain Phil Jagielka announced he would be leaving the club after 12 years of sterling service once his contract expires. Host Phil Kirkbride had quizzed Dave Prentice, Adam Jones and Gavin Buckland on why it was taking so long to get a resolution on the long-serving defender's future. But while we now have that, the question over whether fellow Blues stalwart Leighton Baines will sign a new deal remains unanswered. Why that is the case is discussed here, as is West Ham United's pursuit of Andre Gomes. Should Everton be worried? Also on the agenda is the club's apparent desire to appoint a certain Luis Boa Morte as Marco Silva's new number two before talks turns to Phil's recent interview with former Blues boss Ronald Koeman. Did Koeman deserve more time at Goodison? And would he have fared better under the club's current structure? Whatever your thoughts on Koeman - and let's face it, sympathy for the Dutchman is in short supply - it makes for interesting listening. Enjoy.

The saying "All good things must come to an end" never meant anything to me...until today. Unfortunately, Phil Jagielka has announced that he is leaving Everton after 12 years of service to the Club. We discuss the implications of such a departure, dissect a quote in the media from a former Everton manager, and go through numerous transfer rumor pieces.

Marco Silva was back in front of the media this afternoon for the final time this season - and we have every word the Everton manager had to say in what was an interesting press conference. The Blues head to Tottenham Hotspur's new ground on Sunday and Silva is asked whether it could be the perfect time to play Mauricio Pochettino's men given their exerts in midweek, when they produced a miraculous recovery to beat Ajax and qualify for the Champions League final. Tottenham's success is even more impressive given they did not sign a single player in the summer or January. But if reports from Spain are to be believed, Spurs are set to steal Andre Gomes from the under the noses of Everton, who were also dealt a blow this week in their pursuit of Kurt Zouma when Chelsea's transfer ban was upheld. Silva speaks on both subjects, as well as Morgan Schneiderlin's form, the futures of Phil Jagielka and Leighton Baines, the season as a whole, the excellent defensive record, and the areas of improvement for Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who the Blues boss confirms will be one of two strikers to miss the trip to Tottenham.

Just like at Goodison Park on Friday night, spirits are high in the ECHO's recording studio for the first Royal Blue podcast of the week after Everton cruised to a routine 2-0 win over Burnley in their final home game of the season. But Dave Prentice, who is joined by Sam Carroll, Paul Wheelock and host Phil Kirkbride, argues that the first half-an-hour was anything but routine as well as reminding supporters at the contrast between that and what was served up in the last home match of last season. Paul and Sam wish the current campaign had longer to play while the latter also praises Richarlison and wonders just how the brilliant Brazilian wasn't awarded the opening goal against Burnley. The Blues' hopes of Europe were dashed the following day when Wolves defeated Fulham but is there is an upside to another season without Europa League football? The panel discuss that, the future of the revitalised Morgan Schneiderlin, and whether captain Phil Jagielka's late introduction off the bench versus the Clarets was a symbolic gesture given his contract is set to expire. Everton's pre-season plans are also up for debate as are comments made by Manchester United Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

The last match at Goodison Park for the 18/19 season has concluded with another victory and another clean sheet. An absolutely dominant display was done and dusted by the 20th minute when our tertiary captain Seamus Coleman scored the second goal. As the 90th minute struck, the armband was handed off to our long-standing primary captain Phil Jagielka. We speculate as to the meaning of the substitution...almost in tears. Songs were sung, goals were scored, and Evertonians went home happy once again.

Everton's record for their final five home games of the season reads P5 W4 D1 G9 A0, and 13 points from a possible 15, after they signed off their Goodison Park programme in style with a comfortable 2-0 win over Burnley. Paul Wheelock kicks us off - he can't get his heard round the fact Richarlison's goal has been credited to Ben Mee - before our Everton FC reporter Adam Silva provides his definitive verdict on the night's action. And a short but sweet podcast rounds off with the full audio from Marco Silva's post-match press conference - which includes whether his decision to bring on out-of-contract captain Phil Jagielka late on was a symbolic gesture.

Gameweek 37 is the exact reverse fixture list from Gameweek 19 where Hazard bagged 15 points, Kyle Walker-Peters was the top point scorer and Pogba outclassed Huddersfield… all over again perhaps?The boys also check out some possible Championship players who join the FPL ranks from both Sheffield Utd and Norwich.And of course we have a top pick from Fantasy Football Pundits as well as the lads’ captain choices!Subscribe, give us as many stars as you can in the time it takes for Phil Jagielka to score a hattrick and follow us on Twitter at @AllOutAttackFPL.Thank you, enjoy and as always good luck in Gameweek 37.

Everton will go into their last home game of the season at Goodison Park in good spirits after taking 17 points from the last 27 on offer, but did Saturday's 0-0 draw at Crystal Palace highlight a problem that has never really been solved since Romelu Lukaku's departure. It's one of the big talking points of the View from the Gwladys Street fans' podcast, featuring Blues Tom Clarke and Anthony McEllin and hosted by Paul Wheelock. The trio are full of praise for the job Dominic Calvert-Lewin has done leading the job but does the 22-year-old's lack of goal threat - for the time being at least - underline why the number one priority for Marco Silva and Marcel Brands this summer has to be a prolific striker. Potential targets are offered up while there is also a wilful discussion about Lukaku's form at Manchester United and some unsurprising comments from the forward. Despite the stalemate at Selhurst Park damaging Everton's chances of making Europe, there is plenty of praise and surprise at two statistics offered up by Paul, which banish a certain Silva myth. Talk then turns to the futures of loaees Kurt Zouma and Andre Gomes and stalwarts Leighton Baines and Phil Jagielka, who could all be appearing in a blue shirt (or just at the ground, in the suspended Gomes' case) at Goodison for the last time on Friday against Burnley. Victory over Sean Dyche's side would strengthen Everton's prospects of finishing seventh, but even they were to come eighth, or lower, Tom and Anthony explain why this season has been so much better than last and why it offers real hope for the future.

With Marcel Brands and Marco Silva set to hold talks over the future of Phil Jagielka and Leighton Baines, with the expectation that the long-serving duo will get an answer on new contracts before the final home game of the season, a large part of the latest Royal Blue podcast concerns two players who have been cornerstones for the club. Phil Kirkbride is the man firing the questions at Dave Prentice, Sam Carroll and Paul Wheelock, who start by discussing whether it's right that Baines - as is anticipated - is offered a new deal. But will he accept? And is there another club in the Premier League that has such strength in depth at left-back? Prenno then gives his hunch as to whether Jags will also be given the chance to stay, which leads to a debate about whether Everton can be afford to be sentimental when it comes to their captain. The second part of the podcast concentrates on the PFA Team of the Year and the omission of Lucas Digne. But given Paul Pogba bizarrely did get in, Phil wonders if a different Blues player should also feel hard done-by. And before he and Sam head off to London, the panel preview Saturday's clash at Crystal Palace and give their predictions. Enjoy. For information regarding your data privacy, visit acast.com/privacy

Talk about one step forward, two steps back. With Evertonians buoyant after a three-game winning run that culminated in the superb success over Arsenal, Marco Silva's side did their best to bring them back to earth with an abject display in losing at relegated Fulham. And it's the 2-0 Craven Cottage reverse, and the reasons behind it, that kicks off the latest Royal Blue podcast, hosted by Phil Kirkbride and featuring Chris Beesley, Sam Carroll and Gavin Buckland. The blame seemed to lie with the players, but did Silva make a mistake by keeping faith with Phil Jagielka, who was given a rough ride by Aleksandar Mitrović. That leads the panel to revisit the discussion over whether Mitrović would be a good summer signing for the Blues before talk turns to Jagielka's contract situation, which rounds off the first part of the podcast. Salt was rubbed into wounds when news emerged that Andre Gomes had been charged with violent conduct for a tackle he made on Mitrović in the final minute of the match - and the tackle itself, the charge and what it means for the midfielder's Everton future are all debated. But the podcast does end on an upbeat note as Phil and Co talk the Under-23s' Premier League 2 title win, and which of David Unsworth's youngsters are ready to make the step up.

Everton's victory over West Ham at the London Stadium makes for an upbeat instalment of the Royal Blue podcast. Adam Jones waxes lyrical about the performance of Marco Silva's side while fellow guests Dave Prentice and Gavin Buckland are similarly enthused.

Host Sam Carroll then talks Bernard and what he can bring to the team, whether Phil Jagielka and Leighton Baines deserve new deals at Goodison Park and why Kurt Zouma's set-piece goal should be a more regular occurrence for the Toffees.

Marco Silva made 5 changes to the Everton side that lost to Watford, including bringing Morgan Schneiderlin and Phil Jagielka back into the fray. It ended in a desperately needed 3-0 win for the Blues before the Derby on Sunday. Gylfi Sigurdsson provided 2 goals and reminded us all that he's actually pretty **** good. Be sure to check out our Twitter page (@USAToffeePod) where we are giving away a copy of "The Club" by Josh Robinson and Jon Clegg. Can definitively say it's a book every Premier League fan needs to read.

Marco Silva has just sat down in front of the media to preview Tuesday's trip to Cardiff City - and we have every word the Everton manager had to say at Finch Farm right here.Silva talks how he would have dealt with Kepa Arrizabalaga's actions at Wembley on Sunday, and gives his reaction to the news that a financial settlement has been reached with his former club Watford, before he tackles the questions Blues fans will want answering.Namely, what his squad have been working on during their 17-day break, the conversations he has had with his players in an effort to turn Everton's season around, and just how important the Cardiff clash is.Silva also gives injury updates on Leighton Baines, Phil Jagielka and Yerry Mina and whether Chelsea's imminent transfer ban will hit his attempts to sign Kurt Zouma on a permanent basis.But the Blues boss probably saves his most impassioned answer until last.

It’s the eve of the FA Cup clash at Millwall, and the Royal Blue panel have reconvened for the latest episode of the must-listen Everton podcast.Host Phil Kirkbride gets matters under way by asking Dave Prentice, Gavin Buckland and Paul Wheelock whether the fourth-round tie is the most important game of the season? Not just in term of the club’s long search for silverware, but the increasing scrutiny on manager Marco Silva.Paul has been to the New Den in recent years and, after giving a taster of what the Blues can expect, Phil questions whether Silva has no other option to go with his strongest starting line-up. But does that include Yerry Mina?That in turns lead to a discussion over the future of Mina’s centre-back partners Kurt Zouma and Phil Jagielka before talk turns to the story that has got Evertonians talking – the little matter of the club shelling out the best part of £750,000 a week in wages to players who are nowhere near the first team.That jaw-dropping figure is certainly having an impact on Silva in the current transfer window – no news on the incomings front is definitely not good news, according to Prenno – and Gav and the rest of the lads wonder what effect it will have in the years going forward.One player who does look money well spent is Ademola Lookman, and Phil wonders whether the young winger is better now than he was a year ago when he forced through a loan move to the Bundesliga, before the pod rounds off with predictions for Millwall.

Three games in and Everton’s season has already turned into an emotional rollercoaster. Five points from three games represents a solid start but that doesn’t tell the whole story.Travelling Evertonians have witnessed Phil Jagielka and Richarlison both receive red cards in the first half of the Blues' first two away games. A mixture of fast flowing attacking football combined with a hard work ethic has been overshadowed by those two incidents. Frustration isn't the word.A feisty podcast to say the least, the lads discuss and debate whether Richarlison and Adam Smith should have both received red cards on Saturday afternoon. This debate took a strange turn when former Newcastle striker Alan Shearer waded in with his opinion after our host, Ian Croll disagreed with his comments he made on Match of the Day. Listen out for some Twitter beef. We also ask the question whether the standard of refereeing in the Premier League is good enough? Not forgetting analysis of the Bournemouth performance, why Ademola Lookman must now stay and to finish off we preview the Carabao Cup tie against Rotheram United. Today's View from the Gwladys Street podcast is brought to you by host Ian Croll and guests Mark Crotty, Tom Clarke and Sam Carroll.
