These podcasts are an absolute must listen for all Evertonians

This week’s episode = transfer season with brains. We break down the CF & LW market with models, metrics, and Moyes in mind. Over 30 names discussed. Even the bad ones. (Even Mitrovic.) ▶️ The Blue Frontier #Everton Team Assessment, Part 2: linktr.ee/thebluefrontier

David Moyes became Everton manager on January 11th 💙💙💙 #Everton #EFC #UTFT

Make no mistake, this is a ‘sliding doors’ moment for Everton - the biggest since we went into the Premier League in 1992 as a member of the ‘big 5’ and let that slip. New owners, new stadium, opportunity for a new squad. This is the opportunity to undo the damage of the last 30 years - let’s do it!

Ndiaye is so calm in front of goal. Such a difference from the entire rest of the team. #efc

17 September 1987 aged 11. My first ever visit to Goodison. Everton 0 - 0 Tottenham with a Trevor Steven missed penalty. Sat in the Lower Bullens. Will never forget it.

I've no particular brief for Crystal Palace but I'm delighted a proper club won the FA Cup over one of the Super League 6.

This is really excellent - well done @paddyboyland.bsky.social and The Athletic.

Dixie Dean, Franz Beckenbaur, Pele, Eusebio, Lev Yashin, Alan Ball, Bobby Moore, Bobby Charlton, George Best, Neville Southall, Roberto Carlos, Garrincha, Lothar Mattheus, Wayne Rooney. Just some of the greatest players all to play at the Grandest Cathedral of football. #goodison #everton

Life coming at you fast

🔵 THE CITY (THAT WE BUILT) IS BLUE!

Last trip to Goodison with the boys today. Can’t wait!

Size of the re-build Everton need really apparent in last month. Players of clear quality: Pickford Branthwaite O'Brien Tark Gana Ndiaye That's it... Squad quality players: Myko Garner Patterson? McNeil Alcaraz (worth buying for that cash) Doucs and DCL (but both should go) Armstrong (or loan) and

Pretty poor for the first 70 minutes today but the subs made a different. Bright spot was how good O'Brien and Branthwaite looked in defence and Myko improving every week. Subs made a difference. I really hope we start with Alcaraz and Chermiti against Ipswich.

My last trip to Goodison for this match - can't wait.

Never forget #justiceforthe97

Absolutely great win. Well deserved too. So much for the horrible April.

Did I miss the national outcry over these?

Next Saturday during our last ever fixture v Arsenal at Goodison, we are asking all fans to stand up in the 9th minute and sing “Super Kevin Campbell” It would be great for the fans of the clubs he loved most to pay tribute to him in our final season at our ground, where he became an instant hero 💙

64 days after sacking Dyche #Everton would still not be in bottom 3 with the total he left Best league in the world returns in 2 weeks #efc

Astonishing goal by Harrison Armstrong for Derby today. So pleased his loan is going well.

My penultimate match at Goodison. Not a classic game but great to see a deserved late equaliser and we were inches away from a last kick winner. Wonderful to see the old ground rocking at the end.

Alcaraz had been a massive improvement on Doucoure.

Very scrappy tonight. Lots of misplaced passes and mis controls. Doucoure and Beto particularly.

Penalties awarded in the Premier League since the introduction of VAR in 2019/20. #EFC

If this is true it’s astonishing incompetence and a (pointless) apology is due.

Lost for words why this isn't given.#UTFT

VAR being used to bail out a superleague team, I'm shocked, shocked I say #Everton #EFC #EVEMU #MYPLMorning

VAR double standards applied to Everton again

PGMOL gave done everything in their power to try to prevent Everton winning this match.

A reminder Idrissa Gana Gueye is almost 3 years older than Casemiro. But plays like he’s a decade younger.

This is what I call it now. #efc #evemu

Superb play by Lindstrom and Beto for that goal. This is fun… which isn’t something we Evertonians are used to.

Absolute farce by VAR. taking 4 minutes to clear a goal that was clearly on-side. Seemed to be looking very hard for a reason to disallow it.

I would be very surprised if any of the bottom three even get to 30 points. As Everton now completely safe we can reflect that this is genuinely terrible for football that pyramid is dying before our eyes. Financial relationship between EPL and EFL needs to be reset.

BETO BETO BETO #everton
